#DnDMusic #TavernMusic #DrinkingSong She only wanted two copper out of the tip jar. The tip jar had other ideas. This original D&D bard song is a rowdy medieval tavern song about a rogue who has been bitten by every piece of furniture in the kingdom and still cannot stop opening things. A fiddle-driven celtic folk song and cautionary singalong for every party that has lost a hand, a hireling, or an entire afternoon to a mimic. 🎧 More bard songs on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/2mpNdXU4kg1tFpovnK1LMN 🍺 The Bard speaks...

Hands out of the box—! I reached in the tip jar for two copper bits, it shut on my arm like a vice. The barkeep just shrugged, said "aye, that one bites, I'd have warned you, but you paid in advance." Never trust a chest! Never trust a crate! Anything with hinges is a thing that ate! Count your fingers twice before you take the score — never trust a chest, and never trust a door! The wizard cast detect on the wardrobe upstairs, it yawned and it swallowed his hat. The paladin swore he'd be careful this time — now the paladin counts to nine. Never trust a chest! Never trust a crate! Anything with hinges is a thing that ate! Count your fingers twice before you take the score — never trust a chest, and never trust a door! My boots were a mimic. My bedroll was two. The washbasin got the poor cleric. I sleep with my back to the wall of the inn and I open my doors with a spear. Never trust a chest! Never trust a crate! Anything with hinges is a thing that ate! Count your fingers twice before you take the score — never trust a chest, and never trust a door! So raise up your cup — if it's still a cup — and drink to the ones who reached in. They were quick, they were bold, they were terribly rich, and we buried what the mimic didn't win. Never trust a chest! Never trust a crate! Anything with hinges is a thing that ate! Count your fingers twice before you take the score — never trust a chest, and never trust a door! Never trust a chest — no, never trust a chest! Check it with a pole, boys, check it with a pole! Anything with hinges is a thing that ate — never trust a chest, and never trust a crate! Never trust a chest — no, never trust a chest! Count your fingers twice and count your fingers slow! The night is getting late and the coin is looking great — never trust a chest, and never trust a crate! ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Songs of a Bard is a fireside corner of the fantasy world.
