Sure thing, BOP! Give me a few hrs to get sleepy again, LOL!

I think I avoided it since I keep picturing Weird Al who mangled it 3 yrs ago for SW:Ep. I. It is the song legends are made of.

Man do I have a hangover!
That cider sent me to sleep good and proper! V. good stuff!
My avatar reflects my aspiration to a drunken person kinda thing!
Has anyone ever had that really nice Scottish Grouse Whiskey. That nearly burnt a hole in my throat.

I'm only awake at 2.00am when I have drunk coffee before bed. I'll have to try mangling then. It might make the words flow, like The Tractor when I hit my head.
Hmmmmmm...

Come to think of it, my best songs seem to come after 2AM.
Just like my essays. . .heh. That would be why I'm at entmoot now instead of working, wouldn't it?

ooh, American Pie. Love that song. Of course, I have seen many mangled versions elsewhere, but considering Arathorn's skill with mangling, I'm sure it will be worth it.

Glad you liked the cider, Rosie-lass. You know what really burns a hole in my throat? Guaro. Nasty stuff. Here, people, have some Sake.

You sure gave me a mouthful to mangle BoP. (whew)
So here it is:

TO MORDOR THEY FLY
(Originally AMERICAN PIE by Don McLean)

A long, long time ago
In a hole, a hobbit lived
Who went to venture many miles
And he knew if he had a chance
His nephew would follow his stance
And stories they'd be piping for a while

But Bilbo's gold ring gave them shivers
As Nazgul came across the river
Gandalf on the doorstep;
Made them take one more step

They barely made it past the wild
But Tom came in singing with his bride
Then someone with a past to hide
Helped them go through their stride
So...

Ai Ai East to Mordor they fly
Met some elvish and some dwarvish and some men who would try
And though Boromir died and the hobbits did cry vowing this'll be the Age Sauron dies
This'll be the Age Sauron dies

To Mordor went Frode and Sam
The rest tailed friends who're in a jam
But they escaped the uruk horde
Now they ran in to old Fangorn's grove
And met Treebeard who's angst they drove and
Can they moot without taking it slow?

Well Gandalf White rose back from the grave
'Cause Middle-Earth he just has to save
He met with Strider who
Led Legolas and Gimli too

They met a Mark Captain named Eomer
And told his king what Orthanc's perils were
Grima ran to his new master
The day they hit their stride
They started singing...

Ai Ai East to Mordor we fly,
Met some elvish and some dwarvish and some men who would try
And though Boromir died and the hobbits did cry vowing this'll be the Age Sauron dies
This'll be the Age Sauron dies

Now in Helm's deep orcs they have just hewn,
And Legolas and Gimli's scores were known
But that's not where they ought to be
'Cause sly Wormtongue ran towards Saruman
To warn of perils from south Rohan
And Theoden roused a strong army

Oh and while the king's men made orcs frown,
The ents took Orthanc and closed it down
The tower was secure,
No uruk could endure

And while horsemen came out from the Mark,
Saruman's future loomed quite dark
And Gandalf spoke and let him go
The day they hit their stride
They were singing...

Ai Ai East to Mordor we fly,
Met some elvish and some dwarvish and some men who would try
And though Boromir died and the hobbits did cry vowing this'll be the Age Sauron dies
This'll be the Age Sauron dies

Helter-skelter in a summer swelter
The Nazgul flew from their wicked shelter
Eight miles high and diving fast,
They scared men out in the grass
The Dark lord called on his Morgul King
To take Gondor, but Gondor called Rohan its kin

Now the darkness on the tower loomed
While Nazgul flew and mumaki boomed
Theoden pranced his last,
Dernhelm killed the Morgul King quite fast

Now the western forces took the field
The orcs and easterlings won't yield
But new ship's banners were revealed
The day they hit their stride
They started singing...

Ai Ai East to Mordor they fly,
Met some elvish and some dwarvish and some men who would try
And though Boromir died and the hobbits did cry vowing this'll be the Age Sauron dies
This'll be the Age Sauron dies

Oh, Sam and Frodo went to a place,
A spider's lair old Shelob's lace
With no time left Gollum escaped
But good ole Sam was nimble, Sam was quick,
Sam shot shelob with the sword Sting
Well Gollum's the spider's only friend.

Oh, and as Sam wore the One ring
Orcs took his master's other things
No hobbit can quite tell
Why orcs ran from his spell

And as they both ran east into the night
To melt the One Ring in Doom's light
Sam heard Smeagol cursing with delight
The day they hit their stride
They were singing...

Ai Ai East to Mordor we fly,
Met some elvish and some dwarvish and some men who would try
And though Boromir died and the hobbits did cry vowing this sure was the Age Sauron died
This sure was the Age Sauron died

And when they woke up to bright hues
And Gandalf broke to them all the news
Well they just gaped and beamed away.
They were the heroes of new lore,
Of the times when halflings sure did score
And the many said the hobbits sure could slay.

And in the Shire the hobbits screamed,
The ruffians ran and a wizard got creamed
But not a word was spoken
Why Frodo's wounds had woken

So the two friends left the Shire like ghosts,
Young Sam and Frodo whom he loved the most
Frode caught the last ship for the West
The day they hit their stride
And they were singing...

Ai Ai East to Mordor we fly,
Met some elvish and some dwarvish and some men who would try
And though Boromir died and the hobbits did cry vowing this sure was the Age Sauron died
This sure was the Age Sauron died

They were singing Ai Ai East to Mordor we fly,
Met some elvish and some dwarvish and some men who would try
And though Boromir died and the hobbits did cry vowing this sure was the Age Sauron died
This sure was the Age Sauron died


I'm not sure if it's ok, though. I need some more of that cider.

*Gulps down a glass of EG's cider*

Overview of Current Thread:
Arathorn has had a mad Yoda/Tequila induced mangling spree, mangling about twelve songs in the space of five minutes (with the help of the worm).
Earniel has finally tried her hand at song-mangling to great alcohol-influenced effect.
BoP is wondering what the hell is going on as she had no idea about the tequila thing and then visits the thread finding a load of drunk mooters there. She then joins in with the madness and starts referring to Goldfish.
Strawberry Milkshake and XK are being worried Veggies after the confession about the worm in the American Tequila.
And me...
I'm just as drunk!
And that Finrod guy keeps teling people he's gota new song but it's not coming.


You know what? I had thought of a great one but now I can't remember it!!!!!!!!!

oh, I know the feeling, thinking of a great song, and not remembering it! Rather frustrating, that!

Scuse me? I am the great Bridget Jones (sorta ). I had A WHOLE GLASS OF CHAMPAGNE on NY Eve (and I downed it in one go)! So there. Jen and eowyn kept wafting Reef under my nose but I resisted. I would have drunk it, but my parents limited me.

Can I have some of the cider?
Great song Arathorn.

Argor, ciderer sswas blurry fableous. *Hiccup*
