This is the Renaissance
The lyric stays readable and compact here; the note and related paths sit nearby so you do not lose the song while looking for context.
Middle ages sucked
Spent all day in prayer
Judgement Day was everyday and
Witches burning everywhere
But now we are in luck
Beauties everywhere
Painting filled with foxy women
No one's got a cross to bear
This is the Renaissance
Came upon us all at once
Oh what a Renaissance
This is the Renaissance
Renaissance or Renai'ssance
It's still a Renaissance
If you like to read
Man, you are in luck
Gutenberg is cranking out The Bible with a centrefold
So let it all hang out
No one's gonna care
Flash a little ankle and the guys will lose their self-control
Cause this is the Renaissance
Came upon us all at once
Oh what a Renaissance
This is the Renaissance
Renaissance or Renai'ssance
It's still a Renaissance
Science is here
Nothing left to fear
Though the Earth is flat
It's not as flat as we feared
Music's gone wild
No Gregorian here
Contrapuntal music is the music that your parents fear
This is the Renaissance
Oh what a Renaissance
This is the Renaissance
Oh what a Renaissance
"Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls
Welcome to Renaissance
The dawning of a new day
Where every men is a king and and every women os a queen"
This is the Renaissance
What a Renaissance
This is the Renaissance
This is the Renaissance
What a Renaissance
We can see the moon
We can se the stars
We can see the future and
The freeways and electric cars
And they might think we're quaint
We don't really care
We've got Michaelangelo and they graffiti everwhere
Cause this is the Renaissance
Came upon us all at once
Oh what a Renaissance
This is the Renaissance
Renaissance or Renai'ssance
It's still a Renaissance
It's still a Renaissance
