I'm gonna tell you, what technology means,
it is knowledge of using tools and machines.
Techniques,systems and methods of organization,
in order to save a problem, use modification.
We had to adapt to our natural environment,
construction and medication came as a friend.
Tools aren't for fools,
we use them cause they're cool,
look at the vacuum cleaner drool,
my knowledge today is your fuel,
you have to be ready, my head is full.
We went from stone tools to fire,
by finding that we went higher.
Then we got clothing and shelter,
we need water,look ice, let's melt it.
When we started melting ice,
turning point came in 8000 BC
we found metals, now that's nice.
Paleolithic sticks and hoards,
Middle age, shields and swords.
Silver, copper and gold,
those are metals which are really old,
base of economy, a story being told.
Then came bronze, copper and steel,
hell, we even used wood to make a first wheel.
And it was found in our beautiful country,
next to some pots and shreds of weird laundry.
That was a big boost for movement and transportation,
it allowed us to move fast from one to another nation.
It also allowed us to use nonhuman energy sources,
using water,wind and even horses.
We made wheelbarrows,windmills and clocks,
started counting time, now that sucks.
All that led to the modern age,
animals must've thought we're some sort of mage.
Chinese alchemy, made weapons alot louder,
some genius actually, discovered gunpowder.
We used to hunt,
with arrows that were blunt.
Now we have bullets,
every fool can use it.
Celebrations were powered with attraction of fireworks,
using different colors and shapes had its perks.
Chemistry made some powerful defenses,
powering medicine, with Netherlands usage of lenses,
figuring out how bodies are made and what are senses.
All this was done also by Leonardo Da Vinci,
when people were grieving in England, they were saved by a quincy.
Steam power, tried by Thomas Savery and tamed by Thomas Newcomen,
John Smeaton improved that and James Watt made sure something big was coming.
His ideas gave fruit to first steam-powered vehicle, but sadly it blew up,
repeated the process 2 years later, 1771 model, they didn't screw up.
Well that's at least until the practice, the picture says it all,
vehicle went out of control, knocked down the part of Arsenal wall.
In 1879, closer to our time, there appeared a great mind,
great results he did find, first "Motorwagen" built in Germany, Mannheim.
That's how we got cars, a trillion dollar industry,
numbers so high you can't even see.
Let's go a bit beck when Benjamin Franklin started researching electricity,
they were searching for an answer for many years, but kept missing it.
Alessandro Volta created a battery,
we use it for brushes, flashlights, remote controls for TV.
Then came Thomas Edison, making first light-bulb,
he hired Nikola Tesla, now that's cool.
Together they made great advances,
giving other researchers much higher chances.
There was Zenobe Gramme, who took it,
made first successfull electric motor -look it.
Sure the idea, came from Michael Faraday,
but thanks to his experiments,
we have the use for electricity today
Big boost for the science,
nations formed an alliance.
They shared what they found,
and it was very profound,
invented loudspeaker for producing the sound.
Alexander Graham Bell,
he invented a way to tell,
something to someone miles away,
telephone keeps being improved to this very day.
We can't imagine modern days without it,
thanks to this we've improved, yet our communication became clouded.
Spending all the money, for the kids to have phones,
back in the days, we had to do things alone,
you couldn't make a selfie to see how much you have grown.
I won't forget, to mention Wright Brothers,
they're "fathers of flight" and there can't be no other.
They were sure to introduce mannpowered flights,
allowing the flying and romantic nights.
We use it mainly for travel and transporting the goods,
whole planes filled up, with way too much food,
even live food sometimes, big boost for the trading,
numbers going up, another word, escalating
The thought alone is crazy giving a spin to the physics,
allowing you to go, to new york just for a visit.
Development came also on the visual word,
first television, shocking whole world.
silhoutes were moving, pictures appearing,
with that giant step, huge changes were nearing.
When pictures were available,computing was given a push,
first multioperational Eniac, before that it was Zuse.
with computers getting smarter, science became easier,
it allowed the geniuses to make their statements alot cheesier.
Nowadays even phones are mini-computers,
we use them in cars, planes, boats and even scooters.
20th century, small step for a human, great step for humanity,
travelling on moon, I call that insanity.
It was all inspired by fiction of H.G. WellS,
but that it'll be a reality, who could really tell
Yuri Gagarin, he was the first who travelled in space,
but Neil Armstrong first landed on moon, he's the ace.
Einstein left us a deadly legacy,
he was a genius, not some maniacal pegassus.
They exploited the smartness, by constructing a device,
using smallest of all things, yes even smaller than a fly.
First it was atoms, then it was rocket,
huge investment to kill, not saving their pockets.
How much do you think, a human life is worth?
First war, 2nd war, we live in the third.
Economy war they call it, manipulating costs,
is this not a subject that we should discuss?
You can buy a whole country if you have enough money,
it doesn't matter if the people end up running.
Just look at the weapons they abuse,
world needs a truce, we're lighting a short fuse,
world is ours...wait, whose?
