乱舞春秋
那混乱的年代 朝廷太腐败 人祸惹天灾
东汉王朝在一夕之间崩坏 兴衰
九州地图被人们切割成三块 分开
读三国历史的兴衰 想去瞧个明白
看看看就马上回来 ㄎ一ㄥ ㄎ一ㄥ ㄎ一ㄤ ㄎ一ㄤ
刀剑棍棒 我随口讲 原来真有时光机这么夸张
穿梭时空过瘾又嚣张 万一有去无回怎么办
老实说有点紧张 啊啊江山 我站在云端 慢慢 往中原方向
前方 散落着村庄 长安 在兵荒马乱
望着天眼看北斗七星坠入地平线
瞬间 英雄豪杰犹如鬼魅般地出现
我呸 谁也不服谁 我是龟你是鳖 啦啦啦啦啦 啦啦啦妖兽扰乱人间秩序 血腥如浪潮般来袭
我小命差点没续集 还好有时光机我谢谢你
人魔开始重出地狱 叛军如野火般攻击
五官差点离开身体 还好有时光机我谢谢你曹魏枭雄在 蜀汉多人才 东吴将士怪
七星连环败诸葛亮的天命不来
这些书都有记载 不是我在乱掰
等到东方鱼肚白我再来跟你说嗨嘴里有刀 说破歌谣
千年恩怨 一笔勾销
生命潦草 我在弯腰
历史轮回 转身忘掉黄巾贼你不要吵倭 (嘴里有刀 说破歌谣)
咱姥姥和水杆面条 (千年恩怨 一笔勾销)
放下刀 若想吃饱 (生命潦草 我在弯腰)
去找皇帝老爷讨 (历史轮回 转身忘掉)
黄巾贼你不要闹倭 咱姥姥烧柴煮水饺
放下刀 若想吃饱 去找皇帝老爷讨妖兽扰乱人间秩序 血腥如浪潮般来袭
我小命差点没续集 还好有时光机我谢谢你
人魔开始重出地狱 叛军如野火般攻击
五官差点离开身体 还好有时光机我谢谢你妖兽扰乱人间秩序 血腥如浪潮般来袭
我小命差点没续集 还好有时光机我谢谢你嘴里有刀 说破歌谣 (妖兽扰乱人间秩序)
嘴里有刀 说破歌谣 (血腥如浪潮般来袭)
千年恩怨 一笔勾销 (我小命差点没续集)
千年恩怨 一笔勾销 (还好有时光机我谢谢你)
生命潦草 我在弯腰 (人魔开始重出地狱)
生命潦草 我在弯腰 (叛军如野火般攻击)
历史轮回 转身忘掉 (五官差点离开身体)
历史轮回 转身忘掉 (还好有时光机我谢谢你)
Chaotic Dance of Spring and Autumn
That chaotic era, government too corrupt, calamities brought on by men caused natural disasters from above,
Eastern Han Dynasty1 collapsed and fell in the period of a day,
People dissected and split the map of China into three chunks,
Read about the history of the rise and fall of The Three Kingdoms2, want to go take a look for a clearer understanding,
Just taking a look and will come back immediately, kieng kieng kiang kiang,
Knives, swords, sticks, and clubs, I casually say, it turns out there really is something as outrageous as a time machine,
Travelling through time is fun but arrogant, what if I go and cannot return, what to do,
To tell the truth, I’m a little nervous, ah ahGreat state, I stand at the edge of the cloud, slowly traveling towards the direction of the Central Plains3
Scattered villages, Chang An4 is amidst the chaos of war
Looking at the sky, seeing the Big Dipper falling into the horizon
Momentarily, heroes appear as if they’re ghosts.
Bah! Nobody is satisfied with anyone, I’m a tortoise and you’re a turtle, la la la la la la la laEvil beasts disturb mortal order, the smell of blood attack like tides
My little life almost had no continuation, luckily for the time machine, I thank you
Demons start resurfacing from hell, rebel soldiers attack like wildfire
My five sense organs almost left the body, luckily for the time machine, I thank youCao’s5 Kingdom of Wei6 has fierce and ambitious heroes, Kingdom of Shu Han7 has many talented people, Eastern Wu’s8 soldiers are strange
Qi Xing Lian Huan9 failed, Zhu Ge Liang’s10 Mandate of Heaven11 doesn’t come
These books have it all recorded, it’s not me talking nonsense
Wait till the East flops, then I’ll say hi to youWith a knife in mouth, talk until the folk songs are worn down
Grievances of a thousand years, canceled out with a stroke of a pen
Life is careless and I bend down
History’s reincarnation, I’ll forget it in a flashYellow Turban12 thief, don’t you squabble
Wo13, our grandma is beating strands of noodles with water
Put down the knife if you wish to eat until full
Go find the Emperor and beg
Yellow Turban thief, don’t you squabble
Wo our grandma burn firewood to cook dumplings
Put down the knife if you wish to eat until full
Go find the Emperor and begHello? I’m singing, chicken rice. Eh! Add an egg.
