The Disenchanted Forest - Skyclad[00:00:00]
The Farm Hand's Ghost:[00:00:10]
"My kin and I had laboured hard to reap the yearly harvest [00:00:34]
Lain weary on our gathered sheaves we cracked a vat of ale Poured a toast;[00:00:37]
Began to boast of who could sup the hardest [00:00:45]
Slumped in drunken slumber at the height of wild wassail [00:00:47]
I woke to find my brothers gone that Autumn eve so balmy [00:01:06]
Yet gazed in wide-eyed terror to the barley fields nearby [00:01:19]
Struck dumb I swore; Stood before a mighty woad-daubed army [00:01:23]
Believed my wits deceived me 'til I heard their battle-cry "[00:01:29]
"Smash the axe and sow the seed;[00:01:34]
Don't cause the Oaken Heart to bleed "[00:01:36]
"When he that led this heathen horde cast-off his ivy mantle;[00:02:13]
Cohorts raised honed halberds flying pennants of leaf-green [00:02:17]
From below approached the foe; A fierce scythe-bearing hantle [00:02:21]
Captains sat triumphant upon coughing steel machines "[00:02:27]
"Break the bough and strip all off it [00:02:31]
"Break the bough and strip all off it [00:02:43]
Fell this forest make a profit "[00:02:45]
"Opposing forces clashed beneath a red sky cracked by thunder [00:05:18]
Entrenched beneath the hedge-row I'd observed it quite unseen [00:05:22]
One side stood to save the wood: T'other planned it's plunder [00:05:27]
I chose to fight for Nature's right; Grabbed a fallen skean [00:05:32]
All who would one flower destroy must first cut down this Didycoy [00:05:36]
All who would one flower destroy must first cut down this Didycoy [00:05:47]
We fought until the last that day to gain a hard-won victory [00:06:12]
Sucked in by the thirsty earth - I watched my life-blood ebb [00:06:16]
Though I died at least I'd tried to play some part in history;[00:06:20]
A momentary trembling on the threads of Wyrd's web "[00:06:25]
"Are there more so brave and honest;[00:06:31]
Who would die to save my forest "[00:06:33]
"Are there more so brave and honest;[00:06:36]
Who would die to save my forest "[00:06:42]
