Welcome To The Renaissance (《Something Rotten!》音乐剧歌曲) - Michael James Scott/'Something Rotten' Ensemble[00:00:00]

War of the roses[00:00:09]

Chaucer's tale[00:00:11]

The brutal feudal system[00:00:13]

Holy crusade[00:00:17]

Bubonic plague[00:00:20]

Can't say that we've really missed them[00:00:22]

So dark and barbaric[00:00:26]

So dull and mundane[00:00:28]

That was so middle ages[00:00:30]

That was so Charlemagne[00:00:33]

Welcome to the Renaissance[00:00:38]

With poets painters[00:00:42]

And bon vivants[00:00:43]

And merry minstrels[00:00:45]

Who stroll the streets of London[00:00:47]

A strummin' they lutes[00:00:49]

In puffy pants and pointy leather boots[00:00:51]

Welcome to the Renaissance[00:00:53]

Where we ooh and aah you with ambiance[00:00:56]

We're so progressive[00:01:00]

The latest and the greatest[00:01:02]

We bring it to you[00:01:03]

With much I do[00:01:05]

Welcome to the Renaissance[00:01:07]

Where everything is new[00:01:11]

Here we've made advances in the sciences[00:01:15]

We have the latest gadgets and appliances[00:01:18]

Are mugs are made of pewter[00:01:22]

Our houses all are tudor[00:01:23]

Decorated with a modern flair[00:01:25]

See us with our petticoats and farthingales[00:01:29]

Our trendy beards we trim to look[00:01:33]

Like swallow tails[00:01:34]

We're called Elizabethans[00:01:36]

They're all a bunch of Heathens[00:01:38]

Heathens heading straight for you know where[00:01:40]

While witches are burning and[00:01:43]

Wars tend to start[00:01:44]

We bring you moments of culture and art[00:01:47]

Culture and art[00:01:52]

Welcome to the Renaissance[00:01:56]

Well our printing press has the fancy fonts[00:01:59]

That's right we're fancy[00:02:02]

And very literary theatrical too[00:02:04]

It's what we do[00:02:08]

Welcome to the Renaissance[00:02:10]

Where everything is new[00:02:13]

Hey look it's Francis Bacon[00:02:22]

With a chicken[00:02:24]

What's he makin'[00:02:25]

Well I think he's found a way of[00:02:26]

Freezing heat[00:02:27]

That's new[00:02:28]

Hey look it's Walter Raleigh[00:02:29]

Found a new world by golly[00:02:30]

And he's brought us all[00:02:32]

Tobacco What a treat[00:02:33]

Also new[00:02:34]

And we have a list of writers who[00:02:35]

Are always writing something new[00:02:37]

It's true[00:02:40]

We do[00:02:41]

Like who[00:02:42]

Like who[00:02:43]

Like Dekker[00:02:43]

And Christopher Marlowe[00:02:48]

Thomas Kyd[00:02:50]

Thomas Middleton[00:02:51]

Thomas Moore[00:02:53]

And our brightest star[00:02:55]

Yo he's the bomb[00:02:56]

The soul of the age[00:02:58]

The whiz of the Elizabethan stage[00:03:00]

He's incredible unforgettable[00:03:03]

He's just so freakin' awesome[00:03:09]

Isn't he great[00:03:39]

Isn't he great[00:03:42]

We love him[00:03:45]

Welcome to the Renaissance[00:03:48]

Not the one in Italy or in France[00:03:51]

No the one in England[00:03:55]

The one where William Shakespeare[00:03:57]

Is the cream of the crop[00:03:59]

The one where William Shakespeare[00:04:01]

Is the top[00:04:02]

Welcome to the Renaissance[00:04:03]

To a 16th century experience[00:04:06]

In the age that's golden[00:04:10]

The olden days are over[00:04:12]

We bid them adieu[00:04:14]

Well hal le lu[00:04:16]

Welcome to the Renaissance[00:04:18]

Where everthing is new[00:04:21]

Everthing is new[00:04:35]

'Cause Renaissance means rebirth[00:04:37]
