Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl I was once out strolling one very hot summer's day When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest In a big field of tall grass I lay there in the sun and felt it caressing my face And I fell asleep and dreamed I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie And that I was the star of the movie This really blew my mind, the fact that me, An overfed, long-haired leaping gnome Should be the star of a Hollywood movie But there I was, I was taken to a place, the hall of the mountain kings I stood high upon a mountain top, naked to the world In front of every kind of girl, there was Black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones... Out of the middle came a lady She whispered in my ear something crazy She said: take that pearl Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl [Spoken:] I thought to myself what could that mean Am I going crazy or is this just a dream Now, wait a minute I know I'm lying in a field of grass somewhere So it's all in my head And then.. I heard her say one more time: [Sung:] Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl [Spoken:] I could feel hot flames of fire roaring at my back As she disappeared, but soon she returned In her hand was a bottle of wine, in the other, a glass She poured some of the wine from the bottle into the glass And raised it to her lips And just before she drank it, she said: [Sung:] Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
