Burn Butcher Burn (From "The Witcher: Season 2" Soundtrack)

About this song

The song is performed by Joey Batey as Jaskier and appears on the soundtrack for season two of The Witcher. It can be heard several times in the fourth episode, "Redanian Intelligence", including during the credits.

What it's about

The song expresses the bard's disappointment and anger at Geralt and his anguish over the soured relationship. It is presumably written soon after Geralt used Jaskier as an emotional scapegoat following Yennefer's rejection during a dragon hunt.
