Blunt the Knives
The Dwarf Cast Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Smash the bottles and burn the corks!
Chip the glasses and crack the plates!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates
Cut the cloth and trail the fat!
Leave the bones on the bedroom mat!
Pour the milk on the pantry floor!
Dump the crocks in a boiling bowl;
Pound them up with a thumping pole;
And when you've finished, if they are whole,
Send them down the hall to roll!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!
The lyrics to "Blunt the Knives" reflect the comical side of hobbits' nature. The song is sung by the dwarves while they are cleaning up after dinner in Bilbo's home. The lyrics are playful as they instruct to blunt the knives and bend the forks, smash the bottles of wine and burn the corks, chip the glasses and crack the plates, which are all things that Bilbo Baggins, a respectable hobbit, detests. The dwarves keep adding more instructions to the list to create a humorous and lively atmosphere, such as cutting the cloth and trailing the fat, or splashing the wine on every door of the house. They also suggest dumping everything in a boiling bowl and pounding it with a thumping pole for a messy finale.

Blunt the knives and bend the forks!
Dull the blades and warp the utensils!
Smash the bottles and burn the corks!
Break the bottles and incinerate the stoppers!
Chip the glasses and crack the plates!
Chisel the cups and shatter the dishes!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates
That's what Bilbo Baggins detests
Cut the cloth and trail the fat!
Slice the cloth and drag the grease!
Leave the bones on the bedroom mat!
Abandon the bones on the sleeping mat!
Pour the milk on the pantry floor!
Empty the milk onto the pantry floor!
Splash the wine on every door!
Splatter the wine on each doorway!
Dump the crocks in a boiling bowl;
Pour the pieces into a boiling pot;
Pound them up with a thumping pole;
Beat them vigorously with a club;
And when you've finished, if they are whole,
And when you've finished, if they are intact,
Send them down the hall to roll!
Send them down the hall to tumble!
That's what Bilbo Baggins hates!
That's what Bilbo Baggins despises!

I have a soft spot in my heart for The Hobbit movies. Bilbo's adventures with the dwarves of Erebor are always fun to see.

@ChaoticSpooks
Who knew a bunch a dwarves making fun of a poor hobbit as they eat his food would be such a catchy song

This is my house. These are my things. I don't want no strangers around here.
Besides, if I did let 'em stay, first thing you know, they'd wanna be friends or something. And then look at the trouble we'd have. - Noa Briqualon, Ewoks: The Battle for Endor (1985)
