Hi, I'm Diamond, and today I would like to sing for you a variation on the song "Unwell" by Matchbox Twenty. I will be assuming the characters of Gollum/Smeagol. Since I'm female, I'll be putting a bit of a twist on the singing style, think more Emiliana Torrini than either Rob Thomas or Andy Serkis.

[Gollum]

All day staring at the precious
Making food of orcses in our cave
All night hearing voices telling us
That we should get some sleep
Because tomorrow might be good for fishing

[Smeagol]

Hold on
Feeling like I'm headed for a breakdown
And I don’t know why

[Both]

[G:]But We’re not crazy, we're just a little unwell
We know right now you can’t tell
[S:]But stay awhile and maybe then you’ll see
A different side of me
[G:]We’re not crazy, we're just a little impaired
We know right now you don’t care
[S:]But soon enough you’re gonna think of me
And how I used to be...me

[Gollum]

We’re talking to ourself in secret
Dodging glances from the hobbits
And we know, we know the nasty fat one's been talking about us
We can hear him whisper

[Smeagol]

And it makes me think there must be something wrong with me
Out of all the hours thinking
Somehow I’ve lost my mind

[Both]

[G:]But We’re not crazy, we're just a little unwell
We know right now you can’t tell
[S:]But stay awhile and maybe then you’ll see
A different side of me
[G:]We’re not crazy, we're just a little impaired
We know right now you don’t care
[S:]But soon enough you’re gonna think of me
And how I used to be

[Gollum]

Yes we wants the Precious back
Pretty soon we’ll get it back
Yeah, we'll take Precious awaaaaaaaaaay

[Both]

[G:]But We’re not crazy, we're just a little unwell
We know right now you can’t tell
[S:]But stay awhile and maybe then you’ll see
A different side of me
[G:]We’re not crazy, we're just a little impaired
We know right now you don’t care
[S:]But soon enough you’re gonna think of me
And how I used to be

[Smeagol]

Yeah, how I used to be
How I used to be
Well, I’m just a little unwell
How I used to be
How I used to be
I’m just a little unwell
