2 Plays

[Verse 1] Middle Ages sucked Spent all day in prayer Judgement Day was every day And witches burning everywhere But now we are in luck Beauties everywhere Paintings filled with foxy women No one's got a cross to bear [Chorus] This is the Renaissance Came upon us all at once Oh, what a Renaissance This is the Renaissance Renaissance or Ren-ay-ssance It's still a Renaissance [Verse 2] If you like to read Man, you are in luck Gutenberg is cranking out the Bible With a centerfold So, let it all hang out No one's gonna care Flash a little ankle And the guys will lose their self-control [Chorus] 'Cause this is the Renaissance Came upon us all at once Oh, what a Renaissance This is the Renaissance Renaissance or Ren-ay-ssance It's still a Renaissance [Verse 3] Science is here Nothing left to fear Though the Earth is flat It's not as flat as we had feared Music's gone wild No Gregorian here Contrapuntal music is the music That your parents fear [Chorus] This is the Renaissance Oh, what a Renaissance This is the Renaisssance Oh, what a Renaissance [Bridge] "Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls Welcome to The Renaissance The dawning of a new day Where every man is a king and every woman a queen" [Chorus] This is the Renaissance What a Renaissance This is the Renaissance This is the Renaissance What a Renaissance This is the Renaissance [Verse 4] We can see the moon We can see 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 Michelangelo And they graffiti everywhere [Chorus] 'Cause this is the Renaissance Came upon us all at once Oh, what a Renaissance This is the Renaissance Renaissance or Ren-ay-ssance It's still a Renaissance It's still a Renaissance
