Having read other stories that integrate a story with a song, I attempted to try it myself with Gollum's Song, which is the end credits song in Two Towers. I hope you all enjoy.
Gollum’s Song
Where once was light
Now darkness falls
Where once was love
Love is no more
Abandoned. Yes, precious, they abandoned us. gollum, gollum. Forced to us to goes aways, they did. They loves us no more.
Don't say goodbye
Don't say I didn't try
No. Theys loved us. They didn’ts wants us to go away. Smeagol trieds to stop.
These tears we cry
Are falling rain
For all the lies you told us
The hurt, the blame!
And we will weep to be so alone
Stops talking. It hurts us. Wees gots no one, no one.
We are lost
We can never go home
No home. Always hiding.
So in the end
I'll be what I will be
No loyal friend
Was ever there for me
Wees on our owns now, precious. gollum, gollum.
Now we say goodbye
We say you didn't try
Goes away, Smeagol. You don’ts knows much. You didn’ts try to helps us. No, you didn’t, precious.
These tears you cry
Have come too late
Stops your noises, precious. gollum, gollum. Theys don’ts matter.
Take back the lies
The hurt, the blame!
Yous hurts us. Don’t blames us. We didn’ts do anything.
And you will weep
When you face the end alone
Why, precious, why does its weep? gollum, gollum. Is its alone, precious?
You are lost
You can never go home
No. Wees can goes home if we wants to. Wees can change.
You are lost
You can never go home
No, precious. Yous is lost. Yous can never go home. gollum, gollum. Yous can never change.

Gollum's Song
sung to the tune of The Beverly Hillbillies
Let me tell you a story about a creature called Gollum,
Poor undermountain soul who's life had really hit the bottom,
Until one day as he was eating some slimey thing,
Off his hand and into the mud falls his precious ring,
Sauron's that is, Isildur's Bane, the Master Ring.........
Well the next thing you know ole Gollum starts to pout,
Cause Bilbo wanders in and carries his precious out,
Gollum realizes years later that he has no reason to stay,
So he loads up his stuff and goes a different way..............

Bilbo the Riddling Burglar
tune: The Devil Went Down To Georgia, by Charlie Daniels Band
Bilbo went down to Erebor
He was looking for some gold to steal
He was a little concerned
’Cause he was facing a wurm
A great fire-breathin’ eel
When he came upon an old thing croakin,
Squattin’ in the dark with a magic Ring
And in a smooth voice, he offered him a choice and said
"Gollum, Let me introduce you to Sting...
"I bet you didn’t know it
but I’m a riddle master, ’tis true
And if you care to take a dare
I’ll make a bet with you:
Now you look pretty hungry, my boy
Dinner must be long overdue,
I’ll wager you my rump that you can’t stump
me with a riddle; Let’s tell a few!"
The thing said "My name’s Gollum
And it might be a crime,
There’s no riddle been told that I don’t know
It’s gonna be Gollum’s feeding-time!"
chorus:
Bilbo, better scratch your noggin and your best riddles say
’cos Gollum’s got supper on his mind, and you’re the guest entree!
And if you win you get this shiny Ring you want a bunch
But if you lose then Gollum gets his lunch!
Many riddles those two told and many answer’d in that darkling hole
Gollum’s stomach was growling, and off of Bilbo sweat did roll.
Gollum asked a hard one and
he made an evil hisssssss...
Bilbo hemmed and hawed and pulled his hair
And said "Time!" (a lucky answer, this!)
While Gollum cursed, Bilbo laughed
"This is the last riddle on the docket
Just sit down on that stump right there
And tell me, "What have I got in my pocket?"
chorus:
Escape from the mountain, run Dwarves run!
Bilbo appears with the rising sun
Dragon’s on the rampage, breathing flame
Hard to say who is to blame!
Then Bilbo bowed his head
Because he knew that the tale was told
And he gave to his nephew reluctantly
That shiny band of gold.
Frodo said "Bilbo, how’d you get this magic
Ring away from that there shark?"
Answered he "It is a wonder
What a hobbit can plunder
When he is working in the dark!"

A special song for Bilbo from Gollum's POV
Sung to the Righteous Brothers You've Lost That Lovin' Feelin"
(clears throat, it was a long day at work, not bad, just long)
I lost my precious ring when I went to catch shiny fish
The fish was going to be so very dee lee shee ish
When I looked for my precious it was gone
And I had loved my precious for so long.
(Refrain)
I've lost my precious ring
Whoa, my shiny ring
You've stole my precious ring
Now it's gone, gone, gone wooooooooooooooooh!
You were lost under the Misty mountains when you found me
I was hungry and a hobbit would be nice and juicy
I challenged you to a riddle contest
You asked what did you have in your pockets
(Refrain)
I've lost my precious ring
Whoa, my shiny ring
You've stole my precious ring
Now it's gone, gone, gone wooooooooooooooooh!
Bilbo, Bilbo that's when I knew you had my ring
I tried to catch you, but didn't see anything, yeah
I want my ring, my ring, my ring you stole from me today
So don't, don't, don't run too far away.
Bilbo, Bilbo, Bilbo, Bilbo
I beg of you please, please
I need my ring, I need my ring
I need my ring, I need my ring
So bring it on back, so bring it on back
Bring it on back, so bring it on back.
Bring back my precious ring
Whoa my precious ring
Bring back my precious ring
"Cause it's gone, gone, gone
And I can't go on nooooooooo.
- Calafalas
topsung to the tune of "On Top of Ol' Smokey"...
On top of ol' Mount Doom,
All covered with ash,
I lost my gold ring,
When my finger was slashed.
My ring it was taken,
From finger to fire,
And the last time I saw it,
It was less than entire.
It fell into the mountain,
Down the Crack of Doom,
And ol' Gollum went with it,
And they both were consumed.
Now my story is ended,
And my hand is now fine,
But to count on my fingers,
I can only reach nine.

topMean Mr. Gollum
Mean Mr. Mustard (Lennon/McCartney)
Mean Mister Gollum only likes the dark
Looks for his heart, calls himself precious
Sleeps in a hole in the road
Maybe we should give him some clothes, If you look close you see hair up his nose.
Such a mean old man
Such a mean old man.
His bane Sam runs him down allot
Sam never stops, he's a go-getter
Tied him with a rope from the queen
Saddest thing that you’ve ever seen
Always shouts out something obscene
Such a dirty old man
Dirty old man

This is Gollum skulking after Frodo and wanting his Precious.
Run For Your Life (apologies to the Beatles)
I’d rather see you dead, Baggins boy,
Than to be with my ring on lam.
You’d better keep your head, Baggins boy,
Or I won’t know where I am.
You’d better run for your life if you can, Baggins boy,
Hide your head in the sand, Baggins boy.
Catch you with my golden ring,
That’s the end - ah, Baggins boy.
Well you know that I’m a wicked Stoor
And I was born with a jealous mind,
And I will spend my whole life tryin’,
Just to find that ring of mine.
You’d better run for your life if you can, Baggins boy
Hide your head in the sand, Baggins boy.
Catch you with my golden ring,
That’s the end - ah, Baggins boy.
Let this be a sermon,
I mean everything I said,
Baggins, I’m determined,
And I’d rather see you dead.
You’d better run for your life if you can, Baggins boy,
Hide your head in the sand, Baggins boy.
Catch you with my golden ring,
That’s the end - ah, Baggins boy.
I’d rather see you dead, Baggins boy,

You’d better keep your head, Baggins boy,
Or I won’t know where I am.
You’d better run for your life if you can, Baggins boy,
Hide your head in the sand, Baggins boy.
Catch you with my golden ring,
That’s the end - ah, Baggins boy.
As heard from the Smeagol Mobile as it drove down the streets of Bree
(to the Tune of Arthur's Theme[When you get caught between the moon and New York City])
Smeagol he does what he pleeeeeeaseses
Biding his time while "fat one" sleeps,
Never alone with Prescious,
Makes us weeeeps.
Baggins is a gentle master,
But he's insane! Goes to Mordor!
He makes us show the way,
And then what's more . . .
Smeagol is caught between Sauron and Frodo Baggins.
I know it's crazy, but true.
When you get caught between Sauron and Frodo Baaaa-ag-gins,
The best that we can do,
The best that we can do,
Is call Shelob!
Car rounds the corner before the song is over, thank heavens
This is Gollum skulking after Frodo and wanting his Precious.

The Lonely Gollum

Lay ee odl lay ee odl lay hee hoo
Not far to stay came the followin' Gollum

A.N.: I wrote this in February during the "February is Album Writing Month (write 14 songs in 28 days)" songwriting challenge (my theme was the Lord of the Rings & I wrote 15 songs/instrumentals inspired by the story).
We Likes the Night
Shelob: I was here before the morning took away the night
I was here before the mountains rose up to their heights
I was here before the Dark Lord came, before the Elves, before the Men,
I’ll be here when they are gone, and darkness falls again.
Smeagol: I was robbed yes yess the hobbit took away my Ring
I was robbed yes yess that cheater lied and ev’ry-thing!
I was robbed but I will get It back, before too long, before too late
We will get our own back, my Precious, Precious Thing
Both:
We likes the Night, my Precious-ness,
We likes the Night, my sweet
when foul things crawl from ash heaps
and nasty daylight sleeps
We likes the black, it’s colorless
Oh, let the blackness seep
Men can praise the Yellow Face
it’s the Night we keep
Shelob: We’ll be glad to end the moonshine, we don’t need the Sun
Smeagol: We’ll be glad to see the ev’ning frighten everyone
Both: We’ll be glad to know the stars are gone, after the fall, after the end
We’ll be here when light is gone, oh, then our task is done
Both:
We likes the Night, my Precious-ness,
We likes the Night, my sweet
when foul things crawl from ash heaps
and nasty daylight sleeps
We likes the black, it’s colorless
Oh, let the blackness seep
Men can praise the Yellow Face
it’s the Night we keep
Smeagol: give me fish, silver fish, tasty tasty treat
Shelob: give me orcs, give me men, tender flesh to eat
Both:
We likes the Night, my Precious-ness,
We likes the Night, my sweet
when foul things crawl from ash heaps
and nasty daylight sleeps
We likes the black, it’s colorless
Oh, let the blackness seep
Men can praise the Yellow Face
it’s the Night we keep
