The Lyrics

My 2nd take on this song. I got so into writing my first one, and then had this idea and had to see it through. Haven't written any Hobbity stuff in a while. I'd better get to it to drum up some good ones before the movies really surface. Maybe the first in a series, HAHAHA. ENJOY!
Hobbit-hole
And in there’s a hobbit
In his hobbit hole
You won’t fit, so stop it
If it is your goal
(To) sneak in and rob it
You will surely meet
With some hairy feet

Every guy
Who lives like a hobbit
Has a hobbit hole
And large stores of pot, it
is me-di-ci-nal
So smoke if you got it
When your rockin’ a hobbit hole

Take the great, Old Took
And all the tokes he took
Why he blew such great smoke rings
Hobbits just like the simpler things

No
I’m no gnome
I’m one simple hobbit
And I love my home
From family, I got it
I can take this stone
Spiders I lob it
Why don’t we live like humans in a fort?
We don’t want a problem with the orcs

Bo, bo, bo, Bil and a bo, bo, bo, bo
Bo, bo, bo, Bil and a bo, bo, bo, bo
Bo, bo, bo, Bil and a bo, bo, bo, bo, bo, bo

HOBBIT HOLE (HOBBIT HOLE)

Bo, bo, bo, don't know the bo, bo, bo, bo
Bo, bo, bo, big, hairy toe, toe, toe, toe
Bo, bo, bo, Bil and a bo, bo, bo, bo, bo, bo

HOBBIT HOLE (HOBBIT HOLE)

I won’t barrel roll
Or tangle with the trolls
I want no adventures here
Have a good morning kissing my rear

Hobbit Hole
My cellar is shocking
I got rooms of rolls
All meats I am stocking
I got plates and bowls
Gandalf came knocking
That’s the wise and the grumpy mister Grey
I can’t seem to make him go away

(An Unexpected Party Interlude)

So
Dwarves came by
With beards all a-waggin’
And they just might try
To hang with the Baggins
Come on, let’s chill guys
Puff on the Dragon
Well I maybe will help you as a thief
But first - let us - try the Shire leaf

HOB-BIT HOLE


[OUTTAKES]
Gandalf came knocking
He’s an awesome but also grumpy jerk
His questions are driving me berserk

WARNING : Hobbit-forming behaviors can occur over a middle earth period of time ......

This explains why Bilbo & co. were so concerned with eating all the time...not because they were hungry, they were baked! Great stuff, including adding words to the "doo doo" instrumental section, and changing the rhyme scheme in the second half.

It wasn't the ring then, the behavior from wearing it was a result of them getting high. Smeagal really needed the rehab, but it's too late for him. Nearly too late for Bilbo and his nephew got dragged in.

(ABC) This was really well-written, but I have this feeling that this was based on The Hobbit, which I know nothing about. I recognise a few names and such, but the rest just had me confused. Not your fault, it's on me for not reading up on The Hobbit.

I still haven't seen the movie but I did read the books and saw the other Lord of the Rings movies so I know what you're on about in this parody and I totally enjoyed it.

I know nothing about LoTR, but my great love for the original song more than made up for it. Nice job

I too havent seen LOTR, however you didnt make this so movie specific as to lose non-LOTR seers. Very funny, and as Aggy mentioned, good job on the rhyme scheme and improving it in places! 5 hairy hobbit toes

(ABC) [take puff] Like what if Bilbo never went on his quest? [take another puff] What if like... it was all in his head? Like a hallucination or somethin'?... Nah!" LOL!

Now I want all the hobbits to conga to this version - whilst high on hobbit-pot! A happy, trippy ditty that's well worth a 555.
