Here comes Legolas
(to the tune of Happy B-Day to You)
Here comes my Legolas
Prince and Elf of Mirkwood
He's mine alone so please go
Bother Mr. Wood.

A song for Legolas from Gimli
Sung to the tune of You're so vain by Carly Simon.
You walked into Rivendell
Like you were walking onto a stage
Your perfect blonde hair was braided and coiffed
Your cloak it was elven grey
You had one eye in the mirror
As you watched yourself gavotte
And all the maids dreamed that they'd be your partner
They'd be your partner, and
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you?
You made me curse under my breath
When you volunteered to go
Well I said that I would offer him my axe
And that you would never leave
Without a dwarf to watch your elvish
And that we would hunt orc
I had some dreams they were elves looking messy
Elves looking messy, and
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you?
I had some dreams they were elves looking messy
Elves looking messy, and
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you?
Well, then we all went up to Moria
Then your skill naturally won
And you slew many dark orcs with your elven bow
You killed the sad cave troll in Balin’s tomb
And saved us on the collapsing stairs
Then when Gandalf fell you
Ran very quickly while you were sad and grieving
Were sad and grieving, and
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you? Don't you?
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain (so vain)
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you? Don't you? Don't you?

Legolas Legolas with your slippered feet,
Legolas Legolas will the Sun you greet
Legolas Legolas somewhere in the snow
How will we escape these drifts that blow?
I shall run for the Sun, run for the Sun, run for the Sun when you are done,
For the storm is past and so at last
I will walk where your heavy feet can't pass.
Legolas Legolas with your far-seeing eyes,
Legolas Legolas what is that you spy?
Legolas Legolas is it far away?
Should we travel now by night, not day?
It's an regal eagle, regal eagle, regal eagle - near the sun!
But we're hidin' flightin' in the nightin'
'cause we don't know which side it be on.
Legolas Legolas standing near the boats,
Legolas Legolas what is that that floats?
Legolas Legolas it is dark and black,
Take an arrow please and turn it back!
It's an evil deevil, evil deevil, evil deevil black as sin!
Even though I don't know really what it is,
With my bow I'll cave it's dark heart in.
Legolas Legolas with your eyes that change,
Legolas Legolas where did those orcs range?
Legolas Legolas in their speedy flight
Did they take our hobbits left or right?
They're a-turning churning, turning churning, turning churning to the East!
To the East and North the Uruks course
Is showin' they're Saruman's beasts.

Hair, sung by Legolas and his band of hairy friends:
(Sung by Legolas)
Gimme a head with hair, long beautiful hair
Shining, gleaming, steaming, flaxen, waxen
Give me down to there, hair!
Shoulder length, longer (hair!)
Here Elrond, there Gandalf, Everywhere pretty Leggy
CHORUS:(Sung by all)
Hair! (hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair)
Flow it, Show it;
Long as I can grow it, My Hair!
(Sung by Legolas)
Let it fly in the breeze and get caught in the trees
Give a home to the fleas in my hair
A home for fleas, a hive for bees
A nest for birds, there ain't no words
For the beauty, the splendor, the wonder of my
CHORUS:(Sung by all)
Hair! (hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair)
Flow it, Show it;
Long as I can grow it, My Hair!
(Sung by Frodo)I want it long, straight, curly, fuzzy
(Sung by Bill the pony)Snaggy, shaggy, ratty, matty
(Sung by Aragorn who else?)Oily, greasy, fleecy, shining
(Sung by Haldir)Gleaming, steaming, flaxen, waxen
(Sung by Lurtz)Knotted, polka-dotted; Twisted, beaded, braided
(Sung by Saruman)Powdered, flowered, and confettied
(Sung by Smeagol)Bangled, tangled, spangled and spaghettied!
(Sung by Legolas)
O-oh, Say can you see; my eyes if you can,
Then my hair's too short!
Down to here, down to there,
Down to where, down to there;
It stops by itself!
doo doo doo doo doot-doot doo doo doot
They'll be ga-ga at the go-go
when they see me in my toga
My toga made of blond, brilliantined, beautiful hair
My hair like Arwen wore it
Illuvatar I adore it
Illuvatar I have more of it
I am still the prettiest.

Hair! (hair, hair, hair, hair, hair, hair)

Let me first preface this by saying I DO like Legolas Greenleaf in the books. Also, I DO think Orlando Bloom plays him perfectly in the movies. This song is not meant to be taken seriously on any level. So, to you Bloomers out there, don’t light your torches, leave your pictchforks in the shed. It’s a silly song. A by-product of too much time and too little sleep.
And now for your listening pleasure, with apologies to Tolkien, the Harvard Lampoon (One of thier lines is in there.) and the Beatles, I humbly present this song that may be sung to the tune of the Beatles’ “Eleanor Rigby”.
Legolas Greenleaf
(to the tune of Elanor Rigby)
Ah, look at all the shiny people! (violins)
Ah, look at all the shiny people! (violins)
Legolas Greenleaf,
An Eleven prince who lived in the woodlands of the Mirk,
He was a jerk.
Smelled like a bird’s nest,
His only friend was a creep that he bought with a bribe,
From Durin’s tribe.
All the shiny people,
Where do they all come from?
All the shiny people,
Get out, good-bye, so long!
Legolas Greenleaf,
Shining his knives in the dark when there’s no goblins there,
No one to pare.
Look at him working,
Rinsing his tights in the nights by the side of a stream,
Come out bright green!
All the shiny people,
Where do they all come from?
All the shiny people,
Get out, good-bye, so long!
Ah, look at all the shiny people! (violins)
Ah, look at all the shiny people! (violins)
Legolas Greenleaf,
Left Middle Earth in his boat with his dwarf by his side,
Nobody cried.
Would have stayed longer,
But all who could stand him were already dead or had fled,
It was his head. (fat)
All the shiny people,
Where do they all come from?
All the shiny people,
Get out, good-bye, so long!

Anybody here seen my old friend Gimli?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He tried to save the Halflings, ran over the hills,
You know I just looked around and he's gone
Anybody here seen my old friend Legolas?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He tried to save the Halflings, ran over the hills, I just looked around and he's gone
Anybody here seen my old friend Aragorn?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
He tried to save the Halflings, ran over the hills,
I just looked around and he's gone
Didn't you love the things that they stood for?
Didn't they try to find some hope in this Middle-Earth
And soon we'll see, the Return Of The King,
Some day soon, it's gonna be one day
Anybody here seen my old friend PJ?
Can you tell me where he's gone?
I thought I saw him running up over the hill
May their deeds live on in song.........
