While in Toyko, Trump and Prime Minister Shinzo Abe are expected to take on weighty issues including North Korea, trade and economic development. But not everything has to be so serious.

Trump could be treated to the musical stylings of Japanese singer and comedian Pikotaro during a state dinner party, according to Kyodo News. The singer may even perform his viral, hit song “Pen-Pineapple-Apple-Pen” (PPAP).

If you haven’t seen Pikotaro’s PPAP music video, you’re missing out—big league.

Donald Trump’s granddaughter, Arabella Kushner, did not miss out and appears to be a big Pikotaro fan. Last year, a video of the pint-size Trump singing the Japanese hit went viral.

According to Kyodo News, Abe and his aides are focused on playing good hosts to President Trump. The prime minister has also scheduled to take Trump out for a round of golf with the number 4 world champion, Hideki Matsuyama.

Abe was one of the president’s first foreign guests after he took office. Trump hosted Abe at his Florida Mar-a-Lago estate in February where the two leaders wined, dined and, of course, teed off.
