raikespeare - countries and capitals of asia (the stans) lyrics

Loading...

[verse 1]
asia is…
big!
the largest continent by land
it can seem rather confusing
and difficult to understand
but i will have to break it down
you can learn all countries and the towns
where they hold their capitals
with a little song, that’s the plan!
now hum along with me
we’ll start out with the stans

[verse 2]
kazakhstan, astana
uzbekistan, tashkent
turkmenistan, ashgabat
and kyrgyzstan, bishkek
tajikistan, dushanbe
afghanistan, kabul
pakistan, islamabad
or so i learned in school
india, new delhi
nepal has kathmandu
bangladesh has dhaka
and bhutan has thimphu

[verse 3]
china has beijing
j-pan has tokyo
north korea, pyongyang
and south korea, seoul
myanmar has nay pyi taw
laos has vientiane
thailand has bangkok
and cambodia’s phnom penh
it’s easy!

[verse 4]
vietnam, hanoi
mongolia, ulaanbaatar
malaysia, kuala lumpur
and singapore is…
well it-it’s singapore!
(-spoken-)it’s like a little [?]
(-singing-)but the government’s in the downtown core!

[verse 5]
and now: the islands!
indonesia has jakarta
the maldives has malé
and bandar seri begawan’s
the capital of brunei
if you count it as a country
then taiwan has taipei
the philippines, manila and—
now brace yourselves
this is quite a lot!
the capital of sri lanka is
sri jaya-wardenepura kotte!
which is a suburb of colombo

[verse 6]
and now… the middle east!
georgia, tbilisi
and armenia, yerevan
azerbaijan, baku
and iran has tehran
syria, damascus
and jordan has amman!
lebanon has beirut
and muscat, the capital of oman!

[verse 7]
kuwait, kuwait city
saudi arabia, riyadh
uae has abu dhabi
and iraq has baghdad
turkey, ankara
bahrain, manama
qatar has doha
and yemen is sana’a!

[verse 8]
israel, jerusalem
and the state of palestine
claims east jerusalem
(-spoken-)it’s [?] capital but it doesn’t have legitimate control over that region so the current seat of government is in
(-singing-)ramallah!

[outro]
and that is asia!
