lirik lagu mr. nicky – ancient china
(this is ancient china . . . hey hey hey)
“china’s sorrow” is the huang he
that river’s yellow, and when it floods
it k!lls and causes famine
but makes such fertile farmland
with that north china plain loess
the ancient towns of shang were once production centers
those rulers in anyang prayed to their dead ancestors
making the future known by
cracking oracle bones, i
have few records to go by
but one shang ruler’s name was
fu hao
wife of the shang king
his name was wu ding
look in her tomb
she ruled her own town
and led some armies
her ruling family is
the shang dynasty
read these cracked lines
on these burnt sheep bones
to make decisions
its writing mentions
lady fu hao
her ruling family’s
the shang dynasty
in the huang he valley
when the dynasty of shang
was defeated by wuw~ng
by the mandate of heaven
china started its classic age!
such creativity
the most that been seen
in chinese history
okay, the duke of zhou
was putting down rebellions
he let his nephew grow
but could have easily k!lled him
the zhou made iron weapons
their coins were being accepted
it made trade more effective
they ran their government like
fu hao
wife of the shang king
his name was wu ding
look in her tomb
she ruled her own town
and led some armies
her ruling family is
the shang dynasty
read these cracked lines
on these burnt sheep bones
to make decisions
its writing mentions
lady fu hao
her ruling family is
the shang dynasty
in the huang he valley
in the zhou dynasty
during the warring states period they were trying to see
how to rule wisely, kong fu zi
a.k.a. confucius said the key
to happiness and prosperity
was education, then lao zi
said daoism showed the way to be
it’s the “hundred schools” of philosophy
then look out for ying zheng cause he
took the throne for the qin dynasty
that 13 year~old changed names and he
was the 1st grand emperor, shihuangdi
he standardized the writing
built the great wall of china
his legalism made him enemies, is that why
he had a terra~cotta army that would guard him when he died?
when he died, liu pang
rose up and led the han
they called him gao zu
he defeated hsiang yu
then he started to rule, hey . .
emperor wudi based government on confucius
grew the bureaucracy, they took exams for service
the han kept on advancing
in science and mathematics
made paper, seismographs, and
expanded language, saying
fu hao
wife of the shang king
his name was wu ding
look in her tomb
she ruled her own town
and led some armies
her ruling family is
the shang dynasty
read these cracked lines
on these burnt sheep bones
to make decisions
its writing mentions
lady fu hao
her ruling family is
the shang dynasty
in the huang he valley
(this is ancient china . . . hey hey hey)
