[Intro]
Hey! (Hey!) (Hey!) (Hey!)
Hey! (Hey!) (Hey!) (Hey!)
[Chorus]
Look around, 'cause they're everywhere
Doesn't it blow your mind?
All these wonders, they're
All around, gotta stop and stare
At all these wonders everywhere, eh, eh, eyy
Eyy, eyy, eyy, eyy
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Eyy
[Verse 1]
In the ancient wold, there were 7 wonders
We'll start with my favourite, it's really humongous
And it's still here today, unlike the others
Its design might be why it survived the longest
Yup, I'm talking about the pyramids
2600 BC is when they were built
Take a trip, really quick, travel a little bit
You'll see them in the city of Giza in Egypt
[Verse 2]
Well, I guess that we're on to the next one
The Hanging Gardens of Babylon
The history's a mystery, the date it was built
Seems to be unknown by anyone
They say that way back in Iraq
Is the place that they built the Hanging Garden
It is also said that this paradise
Was planted in an artificial mountain
[Pre-Chorus]
Amazing, these wonders will blow your mind
You might wanna hold on tight, this could be a wild ride, ride, ride
[Chorus]
Look around, 'cause they're everywhere
Doesn't it blow your mind?
All these wonders, they're
All around, gotta stop and stare
At all these wonders everywhere, eh, eh
Eyy, eyy, eyy, eyy
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Eyy
[Verse 3]
Built in the 6th century BC
A temple was built over in Turkey
The Temple of Artemis at Ephesus was built for the Greek goddess Artemis
[Verse 4]
I guess I better not miss what happened a century before this
Another statue was built, which was enormous
Your jaw would drop to your knees if you saw the 40-foot statue of Zeus in Greece
[Verse 5]
This one was built for King Mausolus
The Mausoleum at Halicarnassus
Built in the 4th century BC in the country of Turkey, its size is monstrous
[Pre-Chorus]
Amazing, these wonders will blow your mind
You might wanna hold on tight, this could be a wild ride, ride, ride
[Chorus]
Look around, 'cause they're everywhere
Doesn't it blow your mind?
All these wonders, they're
All around, gotta stop and stare
At all these wonders everywhere, eh, eh
Eyy, eyy, eyy, eyy
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Eyy
[Verse 6]
On an island in the Mediterranean Sea
Built in the 4th century BC
Is a wonder called the Colossus of Rhodes
Built for the Greek sun god Helios
Hundred-and-ten-foot, this one's for the record books
I wonder how long it took to build, now my mind's hooked
The view of a statue that huge would have you shocked, how cool would that look?
[Verse 7]
The world's first lighthouse
Used mirrors to reflect the sunlight for miles out
You can see it far away at sea
Built in the 3rd century BC
The Lighthouse of Alexandria
Sounds amazing, man, I'm telling ya
Too bad we can no longer see it
It was in Egypt, in Africa
[Pre-Chorus]
Amazing, these wonders will blow your mind
You might wanna hold on tight, this could be a wild ride, ride, ride
Amazing (amazing), these wonders will blow your mind (blow your mind)
You might wanna hold on tight (wanna hold on tight), this could be a wild ride, ride, ride
[Chorus]
Look around, 'cause they're everywhere
Doesn't it blow your mind?
All these wonders, they're
All around, gotta stop and stare
At all these wonders everywhere, eh, eh
Eyy, eyy, eyy, eyy
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Eyy, eyy, eyy, eyy
Ooh, ooh, ooh, ooh
Eyy
