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
3
I was once out strolling one very hot summer's day
4
When I thought I'd lay myself down to rest
5
In a big field of tall grass
6
I lay there in the sun and felt it caressing my face
7
And I fell asleep and dreamed
8
I dreamed I was in a Hollywood movie
9
And that I was the star of the movie
10
This really blew my mind, the fact that me,
11
An overfed, long-haired leaping gnome
12
Should be the star of a Hollywood movie
13
But there I was, I was taken to a place, the hall of the mountain kings
14
I stood high upon a mountain top, naked to the world
15
In front of every kind of girl, there was
16
Black ones, round ones, big ones, crazy ones
17
Out of the middle came a lady
18
She whispered in my ear something crazy
19
She said:
20
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
21
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
22
I thought to myself what could that mean
23
Am I going crazy or is this just a dream
24
Now, wait a minute
25
I know I'm lying in a field of grass somewhere
26
So it's all in my head
27
And then I heard her say one more time:
28
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
29
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
30
I could feel hot flames of fire roaring at my back
31
As she disappeared, but soon she returned
32
In her hand was a bottle of wine, in the other, a glass
33
She poured some of the wine from the bottle into the glass
34
And raised it to her lips
35
And just before she drank it, she said:
36
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
37
Spill the wine and take that pearl, Spill the wine and take that pearl
