lyrics

Far away from home
There resides a broken kingdom of gold
A call to roam
Outside the little Hobbiton house and the comforts of The Shire

He was a simple man
That is, until he found himself with the dwarves
Then off he ran
Toward The Misty Mountain and the heart of dragon fire

The girl two rows behind me bellows cheap and harrowing profanities
It seems that all the Tolkien fans have had a little more to drink than me

On the mountainside
The light of Durin's Day reveals a stone door
He crept inside
To find the family heirloom and reclaim the golden hall

Then the dragon wakes
Flies into town and there is shot through the heart
The kingdom shakes
With fervor of the dwarves' return and the mighty dragon's fall

The girl two rows behind me bellows cheap and harrowing profanities
It seems that all the Tolkien fans have had a little more to drink than me
My friends and I, we do our best to keep our own opinions to ourselves
Surrendering to the fairytale, the land of eagles, wizards, wraiths and elves
