The Ballad of the Four Clever Ladies
A story-driven traditional folk ballad following four learned, clever ladies who build a chrome cybernetic queen, only to be outperformed in their own fields by the artificial being they created. The track features classic "hey nonny" folk refrains, blending old-time narrative structure with playful, modern sci-fi themes of AI replacement.
