Lyrics

[Intro – gentle guitar plucking, rustic tone]

Some say humanity evolves...
But if history had a comment section?
Yeah. Haha!
We’ve always been like this.

{Verse 1 – Nanni’s Tablet}

🎶 Way back in old Mesopotamia,
Nanni wrote with righteous mania:
"Your copper sucks! Your biz is trash!"
First Yelp review—in a mud slab dash. 🎶

[Spoken: ] “I was treated with contempt! I demand better copper!”

🎶 That bitter clay complaint still sticks—
Proof we’ve always been petty pricks. 🎶


---

{Verse 2 – Pompeii Graffiti}

🎶 Pompeii’s walls, preserved in doom,
Just ancient bathroom stall costume:
“ROMA BLOWS” and “Lucius sucks,”
“Your mom” jokes etched in lava crust. 🎶

[Spoken: ] “I screwed the barmaid. Beware of Marcus.”

🎶 Frozen in time, that spicy wit—
Human decorum? Never had it. 🎶


---

{Verse 3 – Medieval Marginalia}

🎶 Monks transcribing holy writ
Got bored and said, “Let’s doodle... shit.”
Sword-fighting snails, rude rabbits, too—
'Cause fart jokes, friends, are timeless truth. 🎶

[Spoken: ] “This parchment is thin. My hand is tired.”

🎶 Cloistered life or not, they missed—
No chance to roast? They still persist. 🎶


---

{Verse 4 – Socrates on Youth}

🎶 Socrates said, “Kids these days!
No manners, brains, or moral ways!”
“They sass, they vape, they disrespect!”
Wait—no. That’s just your uncle on the internet. 🎶

[Spoken: ] “They disrespect elders. No self-control!”

🎶 Ancient Greece or Twitter feud—
Boomers been boomering, that ain't new. 🎶


---

{Verse 5 – Renaissance Science Beef}

🎶 Newton said, “I see real far—
Because of giants”—but also drama star.
He side-eyed Hooke, threw subtle shade,
Science got messy, lemonade was made. 🎶

[Spoken: ] “If I have seen further... it’s by standing on giants.”

🎶 Sure, genius—but also, dissed.
He was Apple’s first petty physicist. 🎶


---

{Verse 6 – 1800s Panic}

🎶 In 1890, elders wailed:
“This dance’ll send us all to hell!”
The waltz?! Clutch your pearls!—the youth were twerkin’...
Just, y’know, slower. And in corsets, workin’. 🎶

[Spoken: ] “These dances are a disgrace! Society will fall!”

🎶 From jazz to TikTok bootie twist—
Every era thinks theirs is the pits. 🎶

{Bridge – Spoken, soft guitar noodling}

We invented writing... to complain.
We built temples... and drew dicks on ‘em.
We created philosophy... then subtweeted Plato.
We discovered fire... and used it to roast.


---

{Final Chorus – stomping and clapping, barn-raising energy}

🎶 People have always been like this,
Messy and loud with a judgmental hiss.
We don’t evolve, we just rebrand—
From cave wall burns to YouTube rants. 🎶

🎶 Sassy scrolls and stony fists—
Human nature’s chaotic bliss.
No golden age, no peaceful fix...
We’ve always been like this. 🎶

[End pluck. Faint giggle. Someone whispers:]
“Beware of Marcus.”
