I’m gonna be minstrel in my highschool and I’m super nervous because it’s my first musical and freshman (especially girls) don’t usually get such important roles. This video has helped me practice allot

War of the roses, Chaucer's tales The brutal feudal system Holy crusades, Bubonic plague Can't say that we've really missed 'em So dark and barbaric, so dull and mundane That was so Middle Ages That was so... Charlemagne Welcome to the Renaissance With poets, painters, and bon vivants And merry minstrels Who stroll the streets of London A strummin' the lutes In puffy pants and pointy leather boots! Welcome to the Renaissance Where we ooh and aah you with ambiance We're so progressive The latest and the greatest We bring it to you with much ado Welcome to the Renaissance Where everything is new Here we've made advances in the sciences We have the latest gadgets and appliances Our mugs are made of pewter Our houses all are Tudor Decorated with a modern flair See us in our petticoats and farthingales Our trendy beards we trim to look like swallow tails We're called Elizabethans They're all a bunch of heathens Heathens heading straight for you know where While witches are burning and Wars tend to start We bring you moments of culture And art Culture and art... Welcome to the Renaissance Well our printing press has the fancy fonts That's right we're fancy And very literary, theatrical, too It's what we do Welcome to the Renaissance Where everything is new! Hey look it's Francis Bacon with a chicken What's he makin'? Well, I think he's found a way of freezing meat That's new! Hey look it's Walter Raleigh Found a new world by golly And he's brought us all tobacco What a treat! Also new! And we have a list of writers who Are always writing something new It's true! We do! Like who? Like who? Like Dekker! Whoo! John Webster! Whoo! Ben Johnson! Uh-huh And Christopher Marlowe Thomas Kyd, Thomas Middleton, Thomas Moore And our brightest star Yo, he's the bomb, the soul of the age The whiz of the Elizabethan stage He's incredible, unforgettable He's just so freakin' awesome Shakespeare! Shakespeare! We love him, we love him We love him, we love him We love him, we love him We love him, we love him His plays are so brilliant His writing's first rate His acting's incredible Isn't he great! (we love him, we love him) Isn't he great (we love him, we love him, we love him, we love him) We love him! Welcome to the Renaissance Not the one in Italy or in France No the one in England The one where William Shakespeare Is the cream of the crop The one where William Shakespeare is the top! Welcome to the Renaissance To a 16th century experience In the age that's golden The olden days are over, we bid them adieu Well hal-le-lu! Welcome to the Renaissance Where everything is new! Everything is new Welcome to the Renaissance Everything is new 'Cause Renaissance means rebirth!
