"Friesenjung" ({{translation|"Frisian Boy"}}) is a 1993 song by German comedian and musician Otto Waalkes and a parody of Sting's "Englishman in New York", in which Frisian life (relating to East Frisia, the region where Waalkes comes from) is highlighted.{{Cite web |date=26 May 2023 |title=Friesenjung (English Translation) |url=https://genius.com/Genius-english-translations-ski-aggu-joost-and-otto-waalkes-friesenjung-english-translation-lyrics |access-date=23 May 2024 |website=genius.com}}
