lirik lagu learn your hieroglyphics – horrible histories
[baynton]
settle down cl-ss, now you’ve p-ssed
your grade one pyramid selling
yeah, the time has come for me to drum
some facts into you about spelling
oh, it seems to me, your a-b-c
sk!lls are less than terrific
so buck up, boys, as we master the joys
of the lovely hieroglyphic!
woo!
everyone needs their a-b-c
it’s as simple as vulture, foot, basket
you know how to sing do-re-mi
easy to spell, it’s hand, eye thingy, owl
a-b-c
[children]
vulture, foot, basket
[baynton]
do-re-mi
[children]
hand, eye thingy, owl
[baynton]
you’ll p-ss with ease, and find it’s a breeze
the rules are scientific
don’t have to be smart, all you do is start
with simple phonetic glyphics
next you get to learn as a set
more things, called logographic
finally, third, the form of a word
determinatives!
[child]
horrific!
[baynton]
everyone needs their flamingo, house, sun
it’s simple, but sun can mean duck, everyone
you all know how to write your name
[child (tutan nefert-ti khamun)]
except for me, tutan nefert-ti khamun
[baynton]
flamingo, house, sun
[children]
means duck to some
[baynton]
tutan nefert-ti khamun
[child (tutan nefert-ti khamun)]
let’s leave that one
[baynton]
if you find it hard, don’t be afraid
to go and ask your mummy for aid
now it’s time for a spelling bee
that’s not how you spell bee – see me!
foot, reed, reed. easy!
cat, pig, dog, rat, duck, frog
make your spelling magnific
you can go up and down, left and right and around
the punctuation in hieroglyphic
a-b-c-d-e-f-g
just 700 characters or so
now that’s done, let’s have some fun
with numbers, here we go!
everyone needs their 1-2-3
it’s as simple as eye, eye eye, eye eye eye
you can all count to 99
easy to write, it’s
hoop hoop hoop hoop hoop hoop hoop hoop hoop
eye eye eye eye eye eye eye eye eye
1-2-3
[children]
eye, eye eye, eye eye eye
[baynton]
99
[children]
hoop hoop hoop hoop hoop hoop hoop hoop hoop
eye eye eye eye eye eye eye eye eye
[child]
… basket?
