Disclaimer: don't own Lord of the Rings. Nor do I own "Pour, Oh Pour the Pirate Sherry" by Gilbert and Sullivan.
Authors note: well, I don't expect anyone to know this song, but look up the lyrics and it may help you laugh even harder.
Middle-earth in Concert
Pour, Oh Pour the Dwarvish Sherry
Elrond walks up to the microphone and says, "That was wonderful! Now, our next song is by Gimli son of Gloin and the Dwarvish Men's Choir and the Moria Band!" There is wild applause as the aforementioned dwarves appear from behind the thick red curtain. The music begins to play they wait for their cue to sing.
-
All:
Pour, oh, pour the dwarvish sherry,
Fill, O fill the dwarvish glass!
And, to make us more than merry,
Let the dwarvish brandy pass!
-
Gimli:
For today our dwarvish 'prentice
Rises from indenture freed;
Strong his arm, and keen his skill is
He's a dwarf smith now indeed!
-
Choir:
Here's good luck to dwarvish ventures!
The young dwarf's out of his indentures.
-
Gimli:
Two and twenty, now he's rising,
And alone he's fit to smithy,
Which we're bent on signalizing
With unusual revelry.
-
Choir:
Here's good luck to dwarvish ventures!
The young dwarf's out of his indentures.
-
Gimli and Choir:
Pour, oh, pour the dwarvish sherry,
Fill, O fill the dwarvish glass!
And, to make us more than merry,
Let the dwarvish brandy pass!
Gimli bowed low as the loud clapping ensued as the red curtain closed.
