Maybe it was the morpheme, maybe it was the sense of achievement, and maybe it was the wine? Whatever it was, Hookbill felt a little more confident this time around, no matter how many bottle and bricks flew at him as he wandered on stage.

"Hello," he said into the microphone, "This is a song that reminds me of my homeland. It's called, Dancing with the Moonlit Knight!" The audience was silent.

"Can you tell me where my country lies?"
Said the ranger old to his true love's eyes.
"It lies with me!" cried the Queen of Maybe
- For her merchandise, he traded in his prize.

"The King is late!" cried a voice in the crowd.
"Old man dies!" The note he left was signed 'Old Steward Deni'
- It seems he's burned;
Selling Gondor by the pound.

Citizens of Hope & Glory,
Time goes by - it's "the time of your life".
Easy now, sit you down.
Chewing through your Wimpy dreams,
They eat without a sound;
Digesting Gondor by the pound.

Young Orc says "you are what you eat" - eat well.
Old Orc says "you are what you wear" - wear well.
You know what you are; you don't give me Spam;
Bursting your belt that is your homemade sham.

The Captain leads his dance right on through the night
- Join the dance...
Follow on! Till the pail sun sets in the west.
Follow on! Till the Dark lord is past.
Dancing out with the moonlit knight,
Knights of the Green Shield stamp and shout.

There's a fat old lady outside the saloon;
Laying out the battle armour she plays Fortune.
The armies uneven right from the start;
And all of their swords are playing apart.

The Captain leads his dance right on through the night
- Join the dance...
Follow on! A Round Table-talking down we go.
You're the show!
Off we go with - You play the hobbit's horse,
I'll play the fool.
We'll tease the bull
Ringing round & loud, loud & round.

Follow on! With a twist of the world we go.
Follow on! Till the gold is cold.
Dancing out with the moonlit knight,
Knights of the Green Shield stamp and shout.

*Whack* went the metal pole as it struck Hookbill over the head. And there was much rejoicing.
