The Lyrics
As performed by Saruman
I was a respected wizard
Bein' nice was kinda my thing
Was livin' in my tower
Hanging with the human kings
Then Sauron came to see me
Got to talk of magical things
And I decided quickly (yes I did)
To get in with the Lord of the Rings
He offered glory and power, if for his Ring I'd scour
So with that, he'd got me, and so I turned around and shouted
Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Get that pesky thing tonight
Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Leave Isengard, now and get that pesky halfling, or we'll fry
Or we'll fry, oh yes, we'll fry
You're gonna have to catch him
Just don't let him get out of your sight
I want him in one piece, now
Or I might start to show my might
Now go and get that small fry
Keep runnin' every step of the way
My master will reward me
If I can bring his Ring back today
He offered glory and power, if for his Ring I'd scour
So with that, he'd got me, and so I turned around and shouted
Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Get that pesky thing tonight
Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Leave Isengard, now and get that pesky halfling, or we'll fry
I'm checkin' on your progress
Just watchin' you through my Pelantir
It seems you're gettin' close, yes?
Be sure and bring him right back here
Now I feel so much better
(Was freaking out in every way)
Now master won't be seething
And I don't have to get down and pray
He offered glory and power, if for his Ring I'd scour
So with that, he'd got me, and so I turned around and shouted
Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Get that pesky thing tonight
Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Leave Isengard, now and get that pesky halfling, or we'll fry
Bein' nice was kinda my thing
Was livin' in my tower
Hanging with the human kings
Then Sauron came to see me
Got to talk of magical things
And I decided quickly (yes I did)
To get in with the Lord of the Rings
He offered glory and power, if for his Ring I'd scour
So with that, he'd got me, and so I turned around and shouted
Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Get that pesky thing tonight
Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Leave Isengard, now and get that pesky halfling, or we'll fry
Or we'll fry, oh yes, we'll fry
You're gonna have to catch him
Just don't let him get out of your sight
I want him in one piece, now
Or I might start to show my might
Now go and get that small fry
Keep runnin' every step of the way
My master will reward me
If I can bring his Ring back today
He offered glory and power, if for his Ring I'd scour
So with that, he'd got me, and so I turned around and shouted
Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Get that pesky thing tonight
Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Leave Isengard, now and get that pesky halfling, or we'll fry

Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Get that pesky thing tonight
Get that pesky halfling, Lurtz, boy
Leave Isengard, now and get that pesky halfling, or we'll fry

Have I told you Adam...that I love you? 5s...=)
I remember him spinning Gandalf around the floor in the first film and this sprang to mind on seeing this!
