"La Resistance" is a song featured prominently in South Park: Bigger, Longer & Uncut.
Background
The children sing this song when they formed the eponymous resistance movement opposing Mothers Against Canada, the organization advocating for the execution of Terrance and Phillip.
The song began as a medley, including reprises of "Blame Canada", "Up There", "Uncle Fucka", and even a verse to the tune of "Mountain Town" and "What Would Brian Boitano Do?".
The song was later reprised by The Mole in "The Mole's Reprise". The motto is "Viva La Resistance!".
Lyrics
Gregory:
God has smiled upon you this day
The fate of a nation in your hands
And blessed be the children we,
Who fight with all our bravery
'Til only the righteous stand.
You see the distant flames, they bellow in the night
You fight in all our names for what we know is right
And when you all get shot, and cannot carry on
Though you die, La Resistance lives on.
Gregory and the Other Children:
You may get stabbed in the head with a dagger or sword,
You may be burned to death, or skinned alive, or worse
But when they torture you, you will not feel the need to run
For though you die, La Resistance lives on.
M.A.C.:
Blame Canada! Blame Canada!
Sheila:
Because the country's gone awry, tomorrow night these freaks will fry!
Soldiers:
Tomorrow night,
Our lives will change!
Tomorrow night,
We'll be entertained!
An execution!
What a sight!
Tomorrow night!
Satan:
Up there, there is so much room, where babies burp and flowers bloom
Tomorrow night, up there is doomed, and so I will be going soon!
Terrance and Phillip:
Shut your fucking face, Uncle Fucka!
You're a boner-biting bastard, Uncle Fucka!
Terrance:
Looks like we may be out of luck!
Phillip:
Tomorrow night, we're pretty fucked!
Stan and Kyle:
Why did our mothers start this war? What the fuck are they fighting for?
When did this song become a marathon?
Satan:
I want to be up there...
Sheila:
When Canada is dead and gone, there'll be no more Celine Dion!
Gregory:
They may cut your dick in half,
Soldiers:
Tomorrow night,
Gregory:
And serve it to a pig.
Soldiers:
Our lives will change!
Gregory:
And though it hurts, you'll laugh.
Soldiers:
Tomorrow night,
Gregory:
And you'll dance a dickless jig.
Soldiers:
We'll be entertained!
Gregory:
But that's the way it goes!
Soldiers:
An execution!
Gregory:
In war, you're shat upon! Though you die...

Tomorrow we fight, for La Resistaaance!

Up thereeeee!
