Fifteen going on sixteen
About the song
Every anniversary needs a song! Although I sometimes don’t have time to write them. This time, though, since our kinship was fifteen years old, I just had to.
Best sung to “Out of Time” by them Rolling Stones lads, this tries to cram in as much trivia about the Grand Order as is possible in a relatively short text. Nimelia complained about the forge lines. She’s been trying to build them at our hall for at least ten years. Oh well… it will never happen. Never!
The Grand Order 15th Anniversary Song
Join us this October night
With festive dress and candles bright
A toast with wine and the very best of Shire beers
Come rain or sunny weather
We’ll sing a song together
For the Order celebrates our first fifteen years
With mathoms, brandy and mice for fifteen years
We’ve had Badgers, Strollers and pies for fifteen years
And we have no forge
But lots of food for us upon to gorge
We’ve been here at Brookbank Street for fifteen years
In Songburrow we found our home
Safe from strife and things that roam
Except that vile oinker that everyone fears
Come rain or sunny weather
We’ll sing a song together
For the Order celebrates our first fifteen years
With mushrooms, dishes and teas for fifteen years
We’ve had field trips, bounders and cheese for fifteen years
Neighbours good and grand
All the finest you’ll find in hobbit land
We’ve been here at Brookbank Street for fifteen years
Songbirds, drumming and books for fifteen years
We’ve had Quickpost hobbits and cooks for fifteen years
Neighbours good and grand
All the finest you’ll find in hobbit land
We’ve been here at Brookbank Street for fifteen years
Mathoms, brandy and mice for fifteen years
We’ve had Badgers, Strollers and pies for fifteen years
And we have no forge
But lots of food for us upon to gorge
We’ve been here at Brookbank Street for fifteen years
Out of Time
And here is the original tune by The Rolling Stones
Those are Grand Song Lyrics! And so happy to hear that song again in the original, too. Thank you for posting and happy 15th!

Many thanks! Roll on 16!
I love the Stones original, they played it during their live shows this summer.
