The Chinas or Chīnaḥ (Sanskrit चीन:) are a people mentioned in ancient Indian literature from the first millennium BC, such as the Mahabharata, Laws of Manu, as well the Puranic literature. They are believed to be Tibetan/Burmese rather than Chinese as described in Mahabharata.
The name Cina is commonly believed to have been derived from the Qin (Tsin or Chin in older transliterations) dynasty which ruled in China from 221 BC, or the preceding state of Qin which existed since the 9th century BC. The Greco-Romans referred to China as Sina, or Sinae.
There are however a number of other suggestions for the origin of the word. Some Chinese and Indian scholars argued for the state of Jing (荆) as the likely origin of the name. Another theory by Geoff Wade is based on a polity known as Yelang, in what is now China's Guizhou province. The inhabitants of this region referred to themselves as zina.
The Sanskrit epic work Mahabharata written between the 8th and 9th centuries BC contains certain references to China, referring to its people as the Chinas tribe.
if you wanna be the star
just get the big guitar
a pair of leather jeans
lends credibility make all the critics cream
just get down on your knees
learn how to scream and seize
every "opportunity"
you'll make them beg for it
you're one tough rockin' bitch
you got a lot to show
on college radio
so drop all the petals soft as velvet
tear up your petals moist and delicate
flower petals soft as velvet
rip up the petals moist and delicate
they're falling
now I know you wanna be the rage
wanna live inside the formaldehyde cage
i know your mind's made up
your breasts tattooed
the power won't rub off
now it's part of you
you got nothing to prove
you got nothing to prove
you've shown to those pricks once more
made them beg for it
you're one bad bitchin' whore
so drop all the petals soft as velvet
tear up your petals moist and delicate
flower petals soft as velvet
rip up the petals moist and delicate drop all the petals soft as
velvet
tear up your petals moist and delicate
flower petals soft as velvet
rip up the petals moist and delicate
rip up the petals moist and delicate
flower petals soft as velvet
rip up the petals
rip up the petals
