"Don't Throw Away the Ring!"

by mocroidh

Old Gollum
The subject
Of Tolkien's fantasy
He wants it
So badly
Knows what he wants to be
Inside him
There's longing
For his most precious ring
Ringbearer's
So close now
He'll have to get that thing

Don't throw
Don't throw
Don't throw away the ring!
Don't throw
Don't throw
Don't throw away the ring!

Oh, Gollum's so jealous
You know how bad hobbits get
Sometimes it's not so easy
To be the Master's pet
Temptation, frustration
So bad it makes him cry
The precious, it left him
He can't understand why

Don't throw
Don't throw
Don't throw away the ring!
Don't throw
Don't throw
Don't throw away the ring!

He'll follow them to Mount Doom
To hurt he'll try and try
Over them the Eye looms
The evil Nazgul fly
It's no use
He sees it
He starts to shake and cough
He'll grapple with Frodo
And bite his finger off

Don't throw
Don't throw
Don't throw away the ring!
Don't throw
Don't throw
Don't throw away the ring! [repeat till fade out]
