Chip the Glasses & Crack the Plates! (What Bilbo Baggins Hates) - Irish Folk Style

Подробнее о видео

Gather round for a good time, because Thorin and company are at it again! My version of "Chip the Glasses" from The Hobbit. The original song from the book was rather short, so I had to take a few creative liberties with this one. In order to make a repeating chorus I did add an extra line, ("Leave it all in a broken state!") so please forgive my departure from the holy texts!

Music created using Suno, stemmed and re-edited/re-mixed with additional vocals recorded by me. Video created using clips from the Rankin Bass movie...it's a pretty short scene, so there may be a bit of repetition of clips!

Enjoy, and do be careful with the plates!

*Lyrics:*

Chip the glasses and crack the plates!
Blunt the knives and bend the forks!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!
Smash the bottles and burn the corks!

Cut the cloth and tread on the fat!
Pour the milk on the pantry floor!
Leave the bones on the bedroom mat!
Splash the wine on every door! (hey!)

Chip the glasses and crack the plates!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!
Leave it all in a broken state!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!

Dump the crocks in a boiling bowl!
Pound them up with a thumping pole.
And when you’ve finished if any are whole,
Send them down the hall to roll!
(Send it all down the hall to roll!)

Chip the glasses and crack the plates!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!
Leave it all in a broken state!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!

Chip the glasses and crack the plates!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!
Leave it all in a broken state!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!

(Oy oy oy!) Hey hey hey!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!
(Oy oy oy!) Hey hey hey!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!

Chip the glasses and crack the plates!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!
Chip the glasses and crack the plates!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!

So, carefully carefully carefully with those plates!
(Oy oy oy!)

Chipped glasses, Cracked plates! (HEY!)
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!
Chipped glasses, Cracked plates! (HEY!)
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!

So, carefully carefully carefully with those plates!
(Oy oy oy!)
