Hey kids, let's travel back in time, oh yeah Ancient Greece, where the sun's so fine, uh-huh City-states like Athens, part of two Independent places with a big ol' crew Farmers grew olives, grapes, and wheat In the agar, our traders would meet Men wore tunics, cheddars so light Women rocked the peplos, day or night Daily life, oh daily life in Greece So great, aocracy born in this ancient land Olympus, twelve up high Work and play, meet the big blue sky Hop, lights, march, philosophers think Ancient Greece, let's dance and sing Houses made of mud, bricks, simple and cool Courtyards in the middle, that was the rule Breakfast was bread, a dip of wine Dinner had fish, oh it tasted fine Kids played knuckle-bones, spun tops for fun While slaves worked hard till the day was done Theatre rocked with masks and plays Aeschylus wrote them for sunny days Daily life, oh daily life in Greece So grand, democracy born in this ancient land Olympus, twelve up high Work and play, meet the big blue sky Ancient Greece, let's dance and sing Socrates asked, what's truth, what's right? Plato dreamed big, every single night With shields and spears, fell like formation No room for fears, women wore cloths Spun on the sea so sweet Olympics ran with chariot races Sprouts cheered loud in open spaces Temples stood tall like the Parthenon For Athena, wisdom from dusk to dawn Painted black and red Stories of heroes before bedtime in bed Woods each day Barter in a simple way Zeus was king, Hera by his side Daily life, oh daily life in Greece So grand, democracy born in this ancient land Olympus, twelve up high Work and play, meet the big blue sky Ancient Greece, let's dance and sing So clap your hands, walk your feet Ancient Greece, feel the beat From Algar to the Triumph Ancient Greece, we're so proud
