From the Floating Log at Frogmorton
On
a dark mountain pathway
Bright
blue glow from Sting
Orcs
were marching right along that road
I
had to put on the Ring.
Up
above in the distance
I
saw Mount Doom far away
The
world turned grey and my sight grew dim
I
had to get out of the way.
Something
blocked up the doorway
Something
heavy and fell
And
I was thinking to myself
This
is the entrance to Hell.
They
lifted up the Master
And
they bore him away
There
were voices down the corridor
I
thought I heard them say
Welcome
to the Hotel Cirith Ungol
Such
a dwimmer place
(such
a dwimmer place)
Such
a fell disgrace.
Plenty
of orcs at the Hotel Cirith Ungol
Any
time of year
Any
time of year
You
can find 'em here.
The
pathway turned and it twisted
Around
dozens of bends
I
was much too mad to be afraid
'Cause
orcs ain't nobody's friends.
Watchers
screamed in the courtyard
When
I held up the light
I
hollered Gilthoniel a Elbereth
And
I was ready to fight.
So
I called to an orc chief
In
anger and defiance
He
said
We
haven't seen your kind in here
Since
the Last Alliance.
And
still the Master was hidden far, far away
I
went charging up long dark stairs
Just
to hear them say
"Welcome
to the Hotel Cirith Ungol!"
Then
I missed my home
(Then
I missed my home)
So
I made a poem
They're
dying in heaps in the Hotel Cirith Ungol
Then
I sung real clear
(Then
I sung real clear)
And
heard a feeble cheer.
Door
was in the ceiling
Ladder
to the tower
Frodo
was a prisoner there
In
the Dark Lord's power.
I
find my naked master
After
all those climbs and turns
So
we hug and kiss each other
While
the reader squirms.
Next
thing I remember
We
were running for the door.
We
had to find those stairs back down
To
the place I was before
Halt!
said the Watchers
We
aren't programmed to receive
And
we can't be sure how you got in
But
you will never leave.
Welcome to the Hotel Cirith Ungol, etc.
