Fish in a Bird cage

📜 Lyrics

♩

The ground wrings an unknown strain
Hear the prattle of the birds flying our way
The trees sway to the young one’s piping
Will you stay to listen to me sing?

Seeker, do you ever come to wonder
If what you’re looking for is within where you hold
Will you leave a trail for them to follow a path
You’ll soon forget

♩ Home

How do I begin
When the roof is ever changing
Neath the grove is a heart
That’s still in slumber
You can remain
Will you stay and tell a tale
Would you want to tear it down
To see better

♩

Foolish dreamer
Be awakened
Do not walk to where you were
To where you’re staring

Listen to the willow, listen to the sound
Listen to my voice, you should hear me now
Be still
Be steady
And be…

How do you begin
When the earth is ever changing
Neath the grove is a heart
That’s still in slumber
You can remain
Will you stay and tell a tale
Or would you want to tear it all down
To see better

Home
Is where we are now
Home
Is where you are
Home
Is where I am standing
Where I’ll be staying
Forever…
Now

♩

How do I begin
When the roof is ever changing
Neath the grove is a heart
That’s still in slumber
You can remain
Will you stay and tell a tale
Would you want to tear it down
To see better

How do I begin
When the roof is ever changing
Neath the grove is a heart
That’s still in slumber
You can remain
Will you stay and tell a tale
Would you want to tear it down
To see better

How do I begin
When the roof is ever changing
Neath the grove is a heart
That’s still in slumber
You can remain
Will you stay and tell a tale
Would you want to tear it down
To see better

📜 Lyrics

A rake of claws against a mirror
Grazing pelts we all once wore
A kindling of a swordless bloodshed
The creaking of a voiceless door

Where does a mind like yours wonder?
When it’s sung to sleep
Mind the clamours of the restless bidders
Before you choose to weep

And the Hound
Is humming you
A lie, a lullaby

Stuck in the middle of a forest made of
Flesh and bones and they’re all scared of
A lost little boy who has lost his heart
Fear’s not enough, they have to 
Tear him apart

Follow the scent of iron sinking
Deeper into corpses rotting
But they can’t hear you talk, talk, talk
About every little thing
Every little thing
Every

And the Hound
Is humming you
A lie, a lullaby

It clicks and it clatters in corners and borders
And they will never 
Hear me here listen to croons and a calling
I’ll tell them all the 
Story, the sun, and the swallow, her sorrow
Singing me the tale of the Harpy and the Hare

And the Hound
Is humming you
A lie…

♩

And the Hound
Is humming you
A lie, a lullaby

And the Hound
Hums
A lie, a lullaby
And the Hound
Hums
A lie, a lullaby
And the Hound is humming
And the Hound is howling
And the Hound is humming 
You

And the Hound

(A lie, A lullaby)

And the Hound
Is humming you
A lie 
A lullaby…

And The Hound

📜 Lyrics

Harpy Hare
Where have you buried all your children?
Tell me so I say

Harpy Hare
Where have you buried all your children?
Tell me so I say

All the arrows that you've stolen
Split in half, now bum and broken
Like your heart that was so eager to be hid

You can't keep them all caged
They will fight and run away
Mother, tell me so I say
(La la la)

Harpy Hare
Where have you buried all your children?
Tell me so I say

Harpy Hare
Where have you buried all your children?
Tell me so I say

Forest walls and starry ceilings
Barren curtains that you're weaving
Like the stories that you keep inside your head

She can't keep them all safe
They will die and be afraid
Mother, tell me so I say
(Mother, tell me so I say)

Harpy Hare
Where have you buried all your children?
Tell me so I say

Harpy Hare
Where have you buried all your children?
Tell me so I say

♩ Ha Ha Ha ♩

Harpy Hare
Where have you buried all your children?
Tell me so I say

Harpy Hare
Where have you buried all your children?
Tell me so I say!
(Tell me so I say!)

♩ Ha Ha Ha ♩

She can't keep them all caged
They'll be far and fly away
Mother, tell me you will stay
We'll be far and fly away

Harpy Hare

📜 Lyrics

♩

I can hear the song of the hartebeest
As their hooves drum to a hunger
I can sing a fear or a malady
As I drown deep in the wonder

Where do we go
When the river’s running slow
Where do we run
When the cats kill one by one

♩

Little rabbit
Little rabbit
Little rabbit

Hazel beneath our claws
While we wait for cerulean to cry
Unsettled ticks run through time
Enough for the hunt to go awry

Where do we go
When the river’s running slow
Where do we run
When the acres turn green and the cats kill one by one

♩

Little rabbit
Run run run run run
Little rabbit 
Run run run run run
Little rabbit
Run run run run run

♩

Run run run run run
Little rabbit
Run run run run run
Little rabbit
Run run run run run
Little rabbit
Run run run run run

♩

Run run run run run
Little rabbit
Run run run run run
Little rabbit 
Run run run run run
Little rabbit
Run run run run run
Little rabbit
Run run run run run
Little rabbit
Run run run run run
Little rabbit
Run run run run run
Little rabbit
Run run run run run

Fish in a Birdcage - Rule #34 { speed up 1.2 }

Fish in a Birdcage - Rule #34 - slowed

Everyone’s complaining rightly about the state of the UK.
A snatch of the new Johnny Dysfunctional single ‘BROKEN COUNTRY’ Could do with Marley on this. Marley’s ghost?!
More verses on the longer version
Murder on our streets, kids stabbing kids, where are the police?
Health treatment join a queue, your life’s at risk doctors too busy to see you.
Foodbanks on our streets, food insecurity, cost of living crisis, 14m live in poverty
Lone wolves in bedrooms plan mass killings
Things aren’t how they used to be ….


BROKEN COUNTRY (live) - Johnny Dysfunctional

🐦📖🌾 𓆱 A magic lost to us who have grown, and a promise made to the child we once were.
