Rule #23 - Birds of a Feather - Fish in a Birdcage

This song was created after hearing the story of the pirate queen of Ireland Grace 'o'Malley.
Birds of a feather
(Verse progression)
E, A, E, A-B, E, A, E, B-E
She was born by the sea, er father bounced her on his knee, While he shared past stories of grandeur, That would dance inside her head, every night while tucked in bed, same tales, different actor
There were costumes on the floor, she'd use a wooden stick and board, to vanquish the foes that were after, All them stuffed up toys, that were sticking round by choice they were family in this together
When she grew like a tree, she sought out bonny company, built the finest crew you could ask for, they were brave and sturdy lads, that remind her of dad, back to back, birds of a feather
(Chorus progression)
A9, E-Bm, E-c#m-Bm-E
Ah di ah hi di oh a voyage for the soul
Back to back, Birds of a feather
(Verse)
E, A, E, A-B, E, A, E, B-E
With a scaled down graph, her husband did the math, on a course to have the advantage, cause the British they were smart but didn’t have the heart of our strong Irish companions,
They can write shoddy laws, and try to buy her off, but they’ll never own what we have here, a solidarity within familiar seas, cause we are one in the thousands
(Chorus progression)
A9, E-Bm, E-c#m-Bm-E
Ah di ah hi di oh a voyage for the soul
Back to back, Birds of a feather
(Verse)
She’d defend her name, as the cannon shots and flames, tried to deter what she is after, and although she lost lost her love, no she’s never givin up, to these tyrant, dirty ol bastards,
We would charge as a pack, you could never hold us back, we are fierce and grew with each battle, it etched inside our veins, the hardships that we've gained, we've become a myth unraveled
(Chorus- F# pause 2nd time)
A9, E-Bm, E-c#m-Bm-E
Ah di ah hi di oh a voyage for the soul
Back to back, Birds of a feather
A9, E-F#, E-c#m-Bm-E
Ah di ah hi di oh a voyage for the soul
Back to back, Birds of a feather
(Verse)
Those final days, in the castle she had claimed, she drew the sword that had brought her, through countless victories, that she survived to see, in the tales of her own grandeur
(Chorus)
Ah di ah hi di oh a voyage for the soul
Back to back, Birds of a feather
Ah di ah hi di oh a voyage for the soul
Back to back, Birds of a feather

Every time I here the phrase "Fish in a Birdcage," I think of when you said "An able body creature finding themselves in their wrong environment." This is truly beautiful! I am in love!!

[@FishinaBirdcage]

Thanks for listenin Audrey 🙂🙂

[@panwitt4980]

never has the phrase, ''never too late to discover a banger'' fit a band/song better than w/ fish in a birdcage

[@teastand55]

I see the words "pirate queen of Ireland" and just go "yep, that's cool" Wonderful music, but I'm here for the lyrics and the dog

[@Moooooooose]

This song popped up in my Spotify and has been in my randoms ever since. I love it!!

[@Skyzwind]

The KZbin algorithm is such b.s., now. I wish it were like the old days. Having to search this specific title and artist is shameful since it's so damn good and more people should see this! Lovely work! I hope you get the exposure you deserve ❤️ You've got real talent!!!

[@celticdenefew]

A friend of mine sent this to me because it reminded her of my D&D character. This is such a great song and it suits my PC so well. I need to learn more about Grace O'Malley!

[@lavenderotaku2481]

I actually found this, But I agree! It reminds me of how my Bard would view her companions and their misadventures together. (She’s basically running around with two bounty hunters, an elf mage, and a soldier) Friends to the end! At least in her head.. haha.

[@heikesiegl2640]

​@@lavenderotaku2481 Same ^^ it fits my Bard/swashbuckler perfect :) First she hated adventuring, but now she has a new family :)

[@f3nr1zz]

I've now listened to a few of your songs over the past month, and trying out kore of your songs. They are all beautiful, soothing for the soul and the music is very effective at creating images in my head with closed eyes. Keep up the good work ❤ - From Denmark, Kasper. ❤

[@FishinaBirdcage]

[@t888hambone7]

Amazing! I remember listening to this on one of your live streams the day after you wrote it!! It’s amazing to see what it’s come to!!! What was the inspiration for it again??

[@FishinaBirdcage]

Theres a woman by the name of grace O'Malley who was a pirate queen way back in the 1500s in ireland. Her story inspired this song 🙂
