Song Parodies

The following is based on the Spiderman theme song.

Striderman

Striderman, Striderman,
Does much more than a fighter can.
Heals a wound, any size.
Sings a lay – and he’s wise.
Look out! Here comes the Striderman.

Is he strong? Listen, bud,
He's got partially elven-blood.
Can he fight Five Ringwraiths?
Trust in him and have faith.
Hey, there! There goes the Striderman!

In the chill of night,
At the scene of attack,
Wielding flames red-bright,
He with fire drives them back!

Striderman, Striderman,
Lonely Estel, our Striderman.
Friendship he can’t afford.
Narsil’s shards are his sword.
Look out! There goes the Striderman!

He’s there,
Beside Glorfindel, Elf-lord,
Fighting Ringwraiths at the Ford.
Watch out for Striderman!



Striderman, Striderman,
He’s Elessar, our Striderman.
Fights a war, any size.
Arwen’s hand is his prize.
Look out! Here comes the Striderman.

Is he smart? Listen, bud,
He’s got partially elven-blood.
Mordor’s plans he has read.
Plays Sauron head to head.
Hey, there! There goes the Striderman!

In the morn, alone,
In the Deep’s rocky tow’r,
With a Seeing Stone,
He reveals his true pow’r!

Striderman, Striderman,
Fearless Elfstone, the Striderman.
Wealth and fame make him bored.
Andúril is his Sword.
Look out! There goes the Striderman!

Arwen,
Your love is hope to Estel.
Stitched that flag with your needle.
Sent it to Striderman!



Striderman, Striderman,
Lives his life as a knight-errant.
Takes the Dead on a trip.
Finds a way to the ships.
Look out! Here comes the Striderman.

Is he brave? Listen, bud,
He’s got partially elven-blood.
Ghostly troops he has led.
Goes where men fear to tread.
Hey, there! There goes the Striderman!

In the dead of night,
At the dark Erech Hill,
What a fearful sight –
The Dead bow to his will.

Striderman, Striderman,
Daring Dúnadan Striderman.
Soon to be Gondor’s Lord,
Arwen is his reward.
Look out! There goes the Striderman!

Gilraen:
"Onen i-Estel Edain,
ú-chebin estel anim."
She gave us Striderman!
