När jag var i Stockholm nyligen så inträffade det oundvikliga: En ny sång författades av mästarduon Miff och Muff, denna gång med medförfattare Buff. Inspirationen kommer av två välkända, sinsemellan rätt olika giganter i musik- och bokvärlden, nämligen Abba och Lord of the Rings. Melodin är givetvis Gimme Gimme Gimme (a man after midnight).
Gimli, Gimli, Gimli (a dwarf with some strange friends)
ännu ett mästerverk av Miff&Muff feat. Buff
Halfling man stole the ring from poor Sméagol,
in a cave all alone,
never knowing Frodo´s sufferings to come
Hobbiton got a call from black riders,
but the Bagginses were gone,
and the precious burden wanted to go home
But Gandalf is nowhere
So Strider, tread with care
Gimli, Gimli, Gimli,
a dwarf with some strange friends
Story of a fellowship formed in Rivendell
Gimli, Gimli, Gimli,
not trusting the Elven
But that started changing as the orcs they fell
Fellowship was a king and a steward,
and a dwarf and an elf,
a wizard and the four halfling men
But the ring was a too great a temptation,
to make enemy of friend,
and poor Frodo stood alone there at the end
Oh Sam don´t leave your friend,
‘cause Gollum´s just pretend – ing…
Gimli, Gimli, Gimli,
hunt orcs for the halflings,
going to save Pippin, and Merry aswell
Gimli, Gimli, Gimli,
Strider and the elfprince,
got caught up in politics in the realm of men
Gimli, Gimli, Gimli, a dwarf with some strange friends…
Great war is coming soon,
the hope lies up Mount Doom,
Gimli, Gimli, Gimli,
the axe in the orc spine,
convinient to stop the elf from winning the game,
Gimli, Gimli, Gimli,
Mount Doom is exploding,
Aragon is king and nothing will be the same
