Land Down Under (Medieval Style)

Here, taketh thine sandwich of vegemite, traveller. A bardcore version of Land Down Under!
If you enjoy this sort of music, do go check out Cornelius Link, Hildegard von Blingin' and the_miracle_aligner! There's a host of artists doing this kind of music at the moment, which is calling itself 'bardcore' as far as I can tell.

Travelin' yn a chipped up carriage On the kings road, I shan't disparage I met a strange lady, she made me nervous She tooketh me and gave me breakfast And she sayeth Doon thou come from a lande of yonder? Where women sow and thanes plunder? Cans't thou hear, cans't thou hear the thunder? Thou better run, thou better take cover Buyin wares from a man in Hamburg He stood two yards, and then a three footer I said, "Doon thou speaketh my language?" He juste smiled and then some venison brandische'd And he spake I come from a land of yonder Where mead doth flow and men chunder Cans't thou hear, cans't thou hear the thunder? Thou better run, thou better take cover, yeah Lyin' in ol' London bay With a slack jaw, and not much to say I spake to the man, "Art thou trying to tempt me For I cometh from the land of plenty?" And he said, oh Doon thou come from a lande of yonder? (Ooh yay yay) Where women sow and thanes plunder? Cans't thou hear, cans't thou hear the thunder? Thou better run, thou better take cover (for we doth) Livin' in a land of yonder Where women sow and thanes plunder? Cans't thou hear, cans't thou hear the thunder?

[@mmyr8ado.360]

Trees that bursts to flame come summer and small bears with big noses that climb and eat its leaves. Birds that are on par with the giant birds of Africa that can defeat a kingdom even with an ample supply of bolts and quivers, and some can kill with a single kick. Trees that can give you everlasting pain by just a mere touch. Deers hopping on two legs with its tail larger and longer than its arms, and with a sack in its front to keep its child.
