No Crown For Balin Lyrics

	Balin Longbeard was his name
	A Dwarf of great renown was he
	This rude and nasty Dwarf of fame
	‘Twas never known for courtesy
	While making wind in crowded rooms
	His nose ran constantly
	And all good folk found Balin lacked
	A single trace of modesty
	But Balin was a rich old thing
	As many famous bards are known to sing
	Though Balin wanted to be king
	The Dwarven folk would never hear of it
	In fact they showed a fear of it
	And sensible were they!
	Never mind the Orcs he’d slain
	All his victories were in vain
	He’d even killed a Troll or two
	But a Dwarven crown he ne’er could gain
	For Balin was a nasty sort
	The people all could smell him
	This vile old gent would not relent
	For none of them would tell him
	But Balin was a rich old thing
	As many famous bards are known to sing
	Though Balin wanted to be king
	The Dwarven folk would never hear of it
	In fact they showed a fear of it
	And sensible were they!
	If he would only take a bath
	Then the Dwarves might ease their wrath
	He filled the tub, they gathered round
	They had to see the aftermath
	So bad he smelt the soap did melt
	The filth would not come off him
	He turned the water black as mud
	And so the Dwarves did scoff at him
	But Balin was a rich old thing
	As many famous bards are known to sing
	Though Balin wanted to be king
	The Dwarven folk would never hear of it
	In fact they showed a fear of it
	And sensible were they!
