A little while later, "Change the tune. Why don't you? I feel like I'm at a funnel." says Nori. "Did somebody die?" asks Oin. 

"All right lads, there's only one thing for it." says Bofor, getting up and standing on one of the dinning chairs. 

There's is an inn, There's an inn A merry old inn 

Beneath an old grey hill 

And there they brew a beer so brown 

That the Man in the Moon 

Himself came down one night 

To drink his fill. Oh 

The ostler has a tipsy cat 

That played a five-stringed fiddle 

And up and down he saws his bow 

Now squeaking high Now purring low 

Now sawing in the middle 

So the cat played hey-diddle-diddle 

A drink that woke the dead 

He squeaked and sawed

And quickened the tune 

And the landlord shook the Man

In the Moon:"It's after three!" he said 

By the time Bofor finished his song, the dinning room had food everywhere. Elrond looked at Gandalf and Gandalf looked back at Elrond, and they both looked at the food covered dinning room and the Dwarves. And at that moment Victoria knew what Elrond was thinking, "After what happened today I am never going to invite Dwarves to feast here again. It will take forever to clean this up."
