#DnDMusic #BardSong #GnomeArtificer Every tavern from here to the border has a story about the gnome artificer who can't stop things from exploding — and somehow, they keep buying her drinks anyway. This D&D bard song follows an inventor whose failures light up the room louder than her successes, a boisterous celtic folk song about chaos, charm, and the goggles that never survive the night. It's a rowdy medieval tavern song for anyone who's ever loved the friend most likely to set off the fire alarm. 🎧 More bard songs on Spotify: https://open.spotify.com/artist/2mpNdXU4kg1tFpovnK1LMN 🍺 The Bard speaks... "She swore this one would work — she always swears that. The ceiling still remembers the last three tries. But watch how the whole tavern leans in anyway, because nothing this small has ever made a room feel so alive." — Songs of a Bard 🎲 The Bard's Wares Gear I'd stake my lute on, traveler: ◦ ⚔️ The greatest D&D adventure on screen → https://www.amazon.com/dp/B0DBRB73GD?tag=songsofabard-20 ◦ 🐉 Your first adventure starts here → https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09V84WNPK?tag=songsofabard-20 ◦ 🎲 Dice that roll like destiny → https://www.amazon.com/dp/B07F817H27?tag=songsofabard-20 ◦ 📖 The adventurer's tome → https://www.amazon.com/dp/0786969822?tag=songsofabard-20 As an Amazon Associate I earn from qualifying purchases. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 📜 LYRICS ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ I built a little something out of brass and hope, a spring, a screw, a bit of borrowed rope. I told the barkeep, stand right there and see — this one's going to work, I guarantee. It wasn't supposed to explode! It wasn't supposed to blow! The ceiling's got a brand new hole, the cat's got a brand new glow! It wasn't supposed to explode! Third time this week the shelf came down, they know my name in every town. The baker hides the bread when I walk in, then pulls a chair up, orders gin. It wasn't supposed to explode! It wasn't supposed to blow! The ceiling's got a brand new hole, the cat's got a brand new glow! It wasn't supposed to explode! My goggles melted, eyebrows too, I've got a scorch mark shaped like you. But look — the little wings still beat, it almost flew before it hit the street. It wasn't supposed to explode! It wasn't supposed to blow! The ceiling's got a brand new hole, the cat's got a brand new glow! It wasn't supposed to explode! Everybody ducks when I say watch this, everybody stays to watch me miss. Nothing in my life has worked the first time, but nothing here has ever cost a dime. So pour me one, I'll pour you two, I'll build a thing that's just for you. It might not fly, it might not glide, but you'll have had a front-row ride. One day I'll get the gears to hold, one day the thing will do as told. And you will stand and cheer for me, then quietly, politely, flee. It wasn't supposed to explode! It wasn't supposed to blow! The ceiling's got a brand new hole, the cat's got a brand new glow! It wasn't supposed to explode! It wasn't supposed to explode. It wasn't supposed to blow. But that was the prettiest hole this town will ever know. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ Songs of a Bard is a fireside corner of the fantasy world.
