The Twelve Days of Christmas: Waiting for The Two Towers - The Barrow-Downs Discussion Forum

Knight of Gondor · 10-11-2002, 07:32 PM

Okay, it was madness, sheer madness that made me decide to adapt The Twelve Days of Christmas to Lord of the Rings, but I'm sure some of you will get a big kick out of it. Here it is.

12 Days of Christmas: Waiting for The Two Towers

On the First day of waiting a big fan gave to me: A Ring to Rule Them All

On the second day of waiting a big fan gave to me: Two Frodo dolls and a Ring to Rule Them All

On the Third day of waiting a big fan gave to me: Three Elven Bows, Two Frodo dolls, and a Ring to Rule Them All

On the Fourth day of waiting a big fan gave to me: Four pointy ears, Three Elven Bows, Two Frodo dolls, and a Ring to Rule Them All

On the Fifth day of waiting a big fan gave to me: FIVE GOLDEN RINGS Four pointy ears, Three Elf-Bows, Two Frodo dolls, and a Ring to Rule Them All

On the Sixth day of waiting a big fan gave to me: Six orcs a’fightin’, : FIVE GOLDEN RINGS Four pointy ears, Three Elf-Bows, Two Frodo dolls, and a Ring to Rule Them All

On the Seventh day of waiting a big fan gave to me: Seven Dwarven Rings Six orcs a’fightin’, FIVE GOLDEN RINGS, Four pointy ears, Three Elf-Bows, Two Frodo dolls, and a Ring to Rule Them All

On the Eighth day of waiting, a big fan gave to me: Eight Rohan-Riders Seven Dwarven Rings, Six orcs a’fightin’, FIVE GOLDEN RINGS, Four pointy ears, Three Elf-Bows, Two Frodo dolls, and a Ring to Rule Them All

On the Ninth day of waiting, a big fan gave to me: Nine Nazgûl, Eight Rohan-Riders, Seven Dwarven Rings, Six orcs a’fightin’, FIVE GOLDEN RINGS, Four pointy ears, Three Elf-Bows, Two Frodo dolls, and a Ring to Rule Them All

On the Tenth day of waiting, a big fan gave to me: Ten bouts with Gollum, Nine Nazgûl, Eight Rohan-Riders, Seven Dwarven Rings, Six orcs a’fightin’, FIVE GOLDEN RINGS, Four pointy ears, Three Elf-Bows, Two Frodo dolls, and a Ring to Rule Them All

On the Eleventh day of waiting, a big fan gave to me: Eleven moving forests, Ten bouts with Gollum, Nine Nazgûl, Eight Rohan-Riders, Seven Dwarven Rings, Six orcs a’fightin’, FIVE GOLDEN RINGS, Four pointy ears, Three Elf-Bows, Two Frodo dolls, and a Ring to Rule Them All

On the Twelfth day of waiting, a big fan gave to me: 12 LOYAL HOBBITS... Eleven moving forests, Ten bouts with Gollum, Nine Nazgûl, Eight Rohan-Riders, Seven Dwarven Rings, Six orcs a’fightin’, FIVE GOLDEN RINGS, Four pointy ears, Three Elf-Bows, Two Frodo dolls...aaand a Riiiing to Ruuuuule Them Alllllll!

It's kinda rough, and it needs some adjustment, but I thought I'd throw it out there before someone else thought it up. [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

It's good...but maybe you should have posted it in Middle-earth Mayhem? Turn it into the "LotR meets Christmas carols" thread. Just a thought. [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] [img]smilies/wink.gif[/img]

Oh. Oops. I thought it might belong here because it relates to TTT. Doggone it, so they thought of it before me???!!! NUTS!

No, she means you should start LotR meets Christmas Carols [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img]

Knight of Gondor · 10-12-2002, 08:15 PM

Oh! I thought she said Turn IN to the thread entitled that. Okay!

Thanks Knight of Gondor! [img]smilies/smile.gif[/img] This might make waiting easier, except we need to add.......
hmm....more than ninety more verses [img]smilies/biggrin.gif[/img] oh well. I printed it off and being the complete wacko I am, I'm going to sing it every day!

Fine with me! I'll be famous. Tell your friends that Knight of Gondor is the inventer of this masterpiece! Maybe I can sell the rights to Peter Jackson...for a modest sum. Heh heh heh...
