Verse 1:
Charlemagne, the Holy Roman Emperor
Fought for power with the medieval church
Building an empire through conquest and conversion
Uniting Western Europe under one church
Verse 2:
The black death, a plague that swept through
Europe in the 14th century, causing death and fear
Spread by fleas on rats, wiping out whole towns
Leaving devastation in its wake, the end drawing near
Chorus:
Charlemagne and the medieval church
The black death, the cruel, deadly curse
History tells of these dark events
Shaping the world through violence and penance
Verse 3:
The crusades, a series of religious wars
Fought between Christians and Muslims in the Holy Land
Attempting to reclaim Jerusalem and the surrounding areas
Bloodshed and conquest, kingdoms rising and falling
Verse 4:
Feudalism and the manor economy readings
A system of hierarchy, lords and vassals bound by oaths
Peasants toiling the land, serving their lords in return for protection
Agricultural economy, the backbone of medieval society's growth
Chorus:
Charlemagne and the medieval church
The black death, the cruel, deadly curse
The crusades, wars of religion and power
Feudalism and the manor, shaping the hour
History unfolds in tales of old
Lessons learned, stories told
From Charlemagne to the black death's toll
The past weaves a tapestry, a lesson for the soul
(To the tune of "We Didn't Start the Fire" by Billy Joel)
