The Lyrics

As far as i know, this was the only parody of a mash-up song when i wrote it and still is
Soon it, soon it, soon it's gonna be mine

Men waste their time in Gondor, losing the war
Frightening orcs fighting for their Lord
Don't have such fast minds but cause lots of gore
And they know well to obey me or
I'll make sure they will be no more
And they're on the farewell to virtue tour

I don't play
No one's got power like Saur', Wizards are weak
The thought of my war causes pissers to leak
They can't climb the sizzling peak
Hobbits have no chance ‘cause of the burning glance of my eye
I'm Middle Earth's Osama B.
Out to eradicate mirth, can't stop me
I've got no body, not a big deal
Not much movement but my influence sure is real
I get so much respect even trolls will kneel
If men dare come, orcs will have them for meals (yum yum)
And Rohan has no plan
Ruled by an old man, scoundrel controlling him
What can you say about Theoden, that king's dim
Unlike me he's not thinkin'
My army is mobsters and I'm kingpin
And I will be bringin' a new age of stinkin'

Men waste their time in Gondor, losing the war
Frightening orcs fighting for their Lord
Don't have such fast minds but cause lots of gore
And they know well to obey me or
I'll make sure they will be no more
And they're on the farewell to virtue tour

What a joke at Orthanc, like Nerf against a tank
That Wizard ought to thank, me for permitting
Him to live when it's just him that he's outwitting
At least that idiot has split up those who'd spit on me
From the Shire to Lothlorien
They will tell in songless stories how I got glory again
No question of if but surely of when
Which is probably quite soon, destroying more than typhoons
A disaster area, like college guys' rooms
It's great to lay waste to trees
Since I hate to see, Ents and Elves happy
And I'm so bummed I don't have guns with laser beams
Whatever I can still cause screams
And I'm gonna dry up every last stream
I am the heir of Morgoth
Chances are that my gain is your loss
To the soldiers fighting me in Gondor
Except in your dreams you can't win the war

Tiring and sleeping are both foreign to me
Being so wakeful helps make me powerful
Got more drive than the car industry
With singular purpose and concentrated rage
Not one you'd want to know, I'm not one you'd want to know
And my army's enslaved so they do not get paid a wage
Not one you'd want to know, I'm not one you'd want to know
I know that I will succeed I will get what I need

I will get the one
Awesome ruling ring
With help from Nazgul and their steeds with wings
I'm no communist when I win it's true
I'll have more for me and much less for you
I will have the one!
In spite of men from Gondor, losing that war, war, war, war
I will have the one!
This is because I am cruel to the core
This is because I am cruel to the core

(SOTM) I only ever do this on SOTM, Ethan...I DKTOS, but I'm gonna trust your pacing and give you 5's for a very well written parody
Guy - March 06, 2005 - Report this comment
(SOTM) DKTOS of still another LOTR song. Any OS source for this that I could give a listen to?
ethan - March 06, 2005 - Report this comment
there's a midi file at www.mididelight.com the original lyrics are here: http://www.ohhla.com/anonymous/jigga/c_course/ enc_numb.jyz.txt you could try to get a free download by typing in the OS if you have a file sharing program.

This OS rocks much bollocks. Great rhyming as usual, Ethan. 544 PS. For voters, the last verse is to the lyrics of 'Numb', so most of you should be able to test pacing etc from that.
Charlie Decker - March 09, 2005 - Report this comment
(SOTM) Well, you'd never catch me listening to Linkin Park so I don't know 'Numb,' but I love 'Encore.' And I suppose LOTR parodies will always be popular. 555.

(sotm) Pretty soon I'll have to watch LOTR just to understand its spoofs.

(SOTM) "And they’re on the farewell to virtue tour". Ain't that the name of Mötley Crue's current reunion trip? :-)
Ethan - March 14, 2005 - Report this comment
If there is an actual "farewell to virtue tour", it's purely coincidental
Spaff.com - March 14, 2005 - Report this comment
I've never thought that the OS's combo of "Encore" and "Numb" is very creative; it's just one song followed by the other. That's no reflection on your parody, of course; I'm just sayin'. As for your parody, it's very skilled (as usual) and shows much more creativity. Fave couplet: "I’m Middle Earth’s Osama B. / Out to eradicate mirth, can’t stop me."

(SOTM) Wow ... a brutal yet darkly poetic tour-de-force from the villain's POV.

(SOTM) Most impressive, although I'm still having a hard time believing Sauron would say "I'm so bummed..." 5's for you.
Jeff Reuben - March 21, 2005 - Report this comment
(SOTM) Nice job Ethan. DKTOS, but I enjoyed reading, being an LOTR fan and all. I'll try to listen to the midi in the next few days.
Arwen - March 21, 2005 - Report this comment
SOTM--gotta ditto Jeff. I know I've heard the original(s)...but I can't place them right now...still a lovely read...=) Great job.
Stuart McArthur - March 23, 2005 - Report this comment
sotm - DKTOS and DKLOTR (very well) so it just went *shoosh* way over my head, mate - read well though
John Jenkins - March 27, 2005 - Report this comment
I had to work a little on this since I DKTOSs and am not really into LOTR, but I liked "college guys rooms," "more drive than the car industry" and several other clever lines.

dktos read well tho

Some instances where you included something from recent times like the Typhoons and Osama were a bit awkward for me lots of well-placed Middle Earth stuffs and well-versed. Nice one Ethan.
