To BIlly Joel's: "We didn't start the fire"

Iluvatar, Manwë, Laurelin, Oromë,
Telperion, Aulë, Elbereth Varda,
Cuiviénen,elves are born,
those that turn become orcs
Moriquendi, Calaquendi,
all of them in Arda.

Created earth by song,
but Melkor is too strong
You better run, you better hide Ungoliant is by his side.
Ossiriand, elves green, Melian's a new Queen
Elwë, Olwë, Ingwë, Finwë ones who’ve seen the light.

We didn't start the Eä
it was always going
As the trees were glowing
We didn't start the Eä
Well we didn't light it,
But we tried to fight it.

Fëanor, Silmarils, Fingolfin, said he’d kill
Destroyed the trees, Stole the jewels, Morgoth he was named
Valar sad, Noldor leave, Silmarils can’t help the trees
Yavanna cries, and there they lie by her creation mamed

Teleri killed, Mandos cursed, Fëanor gets there first,
Hopeless wars, unnumbered tears, sudden flames, and many years
Second born, Morgoth mad, Nirnaeth Arnoediad
Eärendil sails to Valinor and rids the world of fear

We didn't start the Eä
it was always going
As the trees were glowing
We didn't start the Eä
Well we didn't light it,
But we tried to fight it.

Turn the page, second age, Akallabeth, men take stage
Numenorë, Atalantë, Elrond’s brother, Dunedain.
Meneltamar, the rising star, men forget the Valar
Sauron captured, Elendil, corruption leading down the lines.

Amandil warns the “Gods,” Manwë mad, now it’s on
Eagle clouds billow in, dieing men and boys and girls
Island breaks from the center, Valinor you cannot enter,
Iluvatar intervenes to change the shape of the world.

We didn't start the Eä
it was always going
As the trees were glowing
We didn't start the Eä
Well we didn't light it,
But we tried to fight it.

Gil-Galad, Elendil, Isildur, Narsil,
Last alliance, all divided, massive war we go to third
Here’s an age of many things, of leaving elves and magic rings
Esgaroth, Smaug the Dragon, he’s defeated have you heard?

Smeagol Gollum, ring is found
To its fate is Sauron bound
Frodo takes it on himself to lead us to a 4th age
Nazgul, shelob, crack of doom,
Fate of Arda’s future looms
End of all things and all the rings WHAT ELSE DO I HAVE TO SAY!

..........yeah, I didn't know lost of those songs. So here's one that hopefully all will know: The Beatles' "Elanor Rigby", now "All the Uruk-hai"

Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Look at all the Uruk-hai!
Aaaaaaaaaaaaaa! Look at all the Uruk-hai!

Orc, goblin-men,
Saruman bred them
to fight
for the Ring,
That Precious thing.

Burned Fangorn Forest
to heat his iron
but the Ents
got real
angry at him.
The outcome was grim.

All the Uruk-hai, where do they all come from?
All the Uruk-hai, where do they all belong?

That's all I have. This is only the product of a veryveryveryveryvery boring bus trip, so it might have been better under other circumstances, but oh well.
