If you're evil and you don't know
Where to go, why don't you go
Where Sauron sings
Putting on the Rings
Evil king in pitch black cloak,
Rides black beast with loathsome croak
Mordor brings
Putting on the Rings

Dressed up like a old king from Numenor
Trying hard to look a bit like Gorthaur
Hordes roar

Let's match words where Haradrim
Carry swords, and bow to him
Who hates all things
Putting on the Rings

Hmmm, that should upset both Tolkien and Irving Berlin.

Cheers
Clive
