I've got one! I know the original song had more verses, but I came up with this while sailing on a boat in Florida...though you'all woudl like it.

One Ring is Gone (sung by Frodo)
*Ticket to Ride, by the Beatles*

I think I'm gonna be glad
I think it's today, yeah
The ring that was driving me mad
Has been thrown away, yeah!

It would have taken me over,
Taken me over for good...
It would have taken me over but now it's gone

One Ring is gone! (lala etc)
One Ring is gone! (lala etc)

I don't know why it passed down to me
Should'a been destroyed long ago
But now I'm setting Middle Earth free
Grab the One Ring, and Samwise, and gooooo...

and so on. Maybe I'll write more verses later.
So, how do you like my first attempt?

I'm also working on mangling "We Open In Venice" from Kiss Me Kate, the musical...anyone know it?

I apologise on bended knee, E XK. It was the Tequila. You live in a pub, you must know what its like when you have a few of them down you. You (and EG) are the only alcoholic elves... blah blah blah...

I, however, am the alcoholic human! Bridget Jones-esque! And Strawberry is Shazzer (and just as loopy).

Amen
Shh...i like to think y'all are innocent...makes me happy. Apologie accepted, and of course, living in a pub, or many pubs......means i know very much what a tequila slammer is like! Hee heh hehe!!

Anyway, nice song Tano...here are mine...

Candle in the Wind by E XK

Goodby Theòden king
Though i hardly served you at all
You had the grace to return to us
When Wormtongue tried to make you fall

He crawled into your country
And whispered evil into your brain
Set you on the treadmill
To make your power wane

And it seems to me you lived your life
like a candle in the wind
Leaving Rohan for Gondor, when the dark set in
And i would have liked to have known you, but i was just a hobbit
Your candle burned out long before
Your legend ever will

The red arrow is the most
Important thing you'll every send
You fought so bravely
right to the very end

But then when you died
fighting for what's right
By your faithful servant Snowmane
A death that was a sight

[Chorus]


I was tipsy...

Madman acros the water - Elton john
Ringbearer across the water - E XK

I can see very well
there's a boat on the river with a lonly hobbit
and i can see it very well

This is a joke and i know it very well
It's that Samwise Gamgee can't swim
Come back! Ringbearer you can't go!

I can see very well
there's a boat on the river with a lonly hobbit
and i can see it very well

I'm a fool and i know i'll follow you
Even into the water whatever you do
It's very stupid, i can't swim, i know

Now i'm in the boat you think it's funny
Get a load of me, I'm so insane (*cough* Anduril * cough* )
We'd better get to the other side Frodo
It looks very bad
The two of us trying is simply mad

The others hope they'll see us very soon
But i'm just happy to be with you
After all i saw was a glimpse of the ringbearer across the water.


BTW. the brackets not part of the song

David Gray- Sail Away This is a song by Tuor I guess

Sail away with me honey,
I'll put my life in their hands
Sail away with me honey now now now
Sail away with me
We'll go across the sea
I wanna go their now now now

Crazy elves are all around me now
Gothmog tearing down the place
And all the things I held so dear
Disappeared amid the flames
For all the times I counselled him
Never could quite understand
Earendil if you here me now
Wished things never got so bad
Sea's swishing round my head.

Sail away with me honey,
I'll put my life in their hands
Sail away with me honey now now now
Sail away with me
We'll go across the sea
I wanna go their now now now

I've been talking something elvenish
Falling in the line of fire
Trying to get to destination here
So stupid, some people are
How did I ever get so far

Sail away with me honey,
I'll put my life in their hands
Sail away with me honey now now now
Sail away with me
We'll go across the sea
I wanna go their now now now

Sail away with me honey,
I'll put my life in their hands
Sail away with me honey now now now
Sail away with me
We'll go across the sea
I wanna go their now now now

Sail away with me honey,
I'll put my life in their hands
Sail away with me honey now now now
Sail away with me
We'll go across the sea
I wanna go their now now now

Whistle to end

Here's some Peter Frampton (great for reggae too)

FRODO WE LOST OUR WAY
(Originally BABY I LOVE YOUR WAY by Peter Frampton)

Shadows grow so strong sent by the Eye
And they're moving towards the Shire
Hopefully to Bree we get tonight
Far away from the smials but don't hesitate
'Cause Gandalf won't wait hey
Ooh Frodo we lost our way Foolish day
Wanna tell you we lost our way Tookish day
Wanna dine with you late today

Elf appears to shine and light the sky
Will he heal you, but time flies
I wonder how they have the power shine shine shine
I can see wraiths under the pines
But won't hesitate 'cause your wound won't wait heyeyey
Ooh Frodo be on your way ride today
Wanna tell you be on your way ride today
Wanna be with you after today uh yeah

Well don't hesitate 'cause Nazgul won't wait
I can see the darkness in your eyes
Brown and grey and pale besides
Wraiths are stalking Asfaloth fly on
Wish I could fly you out of reason
But don't hesitate 'cause Elrond can't wait hey
Ooh Frodo be quick your way fly today
Wanna tell you hang on your way uuhh
Wanna be with you the next day
Ooh Frodo you're on your way tiring day
Wanna tell you go on your way uuhh
Wanna be with you night and day

Now some more Carly Simon...

SAM'S AROUND AGAIN
(Originally COMING AROUND AGAIN by Carly Simon)

Frodo sneezes
Samwise pleases
Rosie breezes in
So good the gaffer
So romantic
But so bewildering

Chorus:
I know hobbits ain't the same
But if Sam's willing to play the game
He'll be coming around again
So don't mind if Sam falls apart
There's more room in his broken heart

He leaves the Gaffer
Been a gard'ner
Kissed his Rose Good-bye
Then he hears some banter
Burned some taters
Heard the nazgul cry

(Chorus)

And Sam believes in love
But what else can he do
He'll guard the Ring with you

I know hobbits ain't the same
But if Sam's willing to play the game
Sam's coming around again
(repeat and fade)

Awww, i like them!

And btw, I believe EG offered me some Sake which i forgot to say 'YES PLEASE!' to, so 'YES PLEASE!'

I've run out of things to do. Perhaps a request would be good.

Oh yeah, did anyone actually do 'We are the Fellowship.'

I don't think anyone did...but I'm not really the right person to ask because I'm a little behind. Do more Beatles! I like Beatles! They're also about the only thing I can sing along to...
Anyone know more of Enya's songs, besides May It Be and Aniron? Are there any good mangling prospects?

Here's a stab on an Enya song that made her popular in the late 80's (and in ramp modelling shows):

Anduino Flow
(Originally Orinoco Flow (Sail Away) by Enya)

Greenleaf Sail, Gimli Sail, Past The Anduino Flow,
Greenleaf Reach, Gimli Beach On The Shores Of Valinor.
Greenleaf Sail, Gimli Sail, Lest We Grow Old In Gondor,
Greenleaf Reach, Gimli Beach Far Beyond The Bending Sea.

From Rohan To Aman - In The Wake Of The Vanyar,
From Rauros To Mandos Past The Land of Eldamar,
Lothlorien To Lorien Hear The Power Of Manwe,
From Sindar To Eldar - Journeys West No Man Can See.

From The East To The West, Namarie To Erebor,
From The Bay Of Belfalas To The Islands Of Our Kin,
Carry Me And The Dwarf To The Lands I've Never Been,
Carry Me And The Dwarf To The Lands I've Never Seen.

Sindar Sail, Khazad Sail, Sindar Sail
Sindar Sail, Khazad Sail, Sindar Sail
We Can Steer, We Can Near Without Cirdan At The Wheel,
We Can Sigh, Say Goodbye Elessar Is Gone For Real
Sindar Sail, Khazad Sail, Sindar Sail
Sindar Sail, Khazad Sail, Sindar Sail


I'm not sure if all are accurate but it's quite difficult to look for 2 syllable places. I was even tempted to get some names from Beleriand. Oh well...

I DIDN’T WRITE THIS, I FOUND IT ON A SITE ON THE INTERNET

to the tune of "My Old Man's a Dustman".


CHORUS
Oh, my father was a hobbit,
My mother was an elf,
My Uncle Mabel's dwarvish,
God knows about myself.
But even though my ancestors were readers, every one,
I still can't understand the bloody Silmarillion.

The hobbit was a favourite,
Farmer Giles was brill,
Lord of the Rings was rather good,
Lost Tales was better still.
The Silmarillion I've tried,
Time and time again,
But reading past page ten
Is sending me right round the bend.

CHORUS

The brother of the father of the uncle to myself,
Was married to the cousin of the sister of an elf.
Morgoth is my granny, Frodo is my Aunt,
I hope you're making sense of this, 'cos I still bloody can't!
You might have figured out by now, it's driving me insane,
The knights and Gods and heroes are whirling round my brain.
So if you've got it figured out, please do not hold back,
You'll find me in the jacket with the sleeves around the back!

CHORUS AD NAUSEUM
