39. Run Run Run
Author’s note:
As well as the usual disclaimer, I must note that the form of this is based on “Fun Fun Fun” by Brian Wilson and Mike Love, recorded by the Beach Boys. Sung by Aragorn, Gimli, and Legolas, while chasing Orcs across Rohan.

Aragorn:
Well we fought against the Orcs
And they fled across the plains of Rohan now
Seems we forgot to be certain that the Hobbits
Were in our careful hands now
And with the Uruk-hai marching
We must chase them just as fast as we can now
And we will run run run
Till we catch them, we will not delay
(Run run run till we catch them, we will not delay)
Gimli:
Well this Dwarf has to stand it
Though I’m unaccustomed to this pace now
(They picked up the pace now they picked up the pace)
This makes the journey from Imladris look like a simple marching test case now
(They picked up the pace now they picked up the pace)
But we have to try to catch them
Even though they’re far ahead in this chase now
(They picked up the pace now they picked up the pace)
And we will run run run
Till we catch them, we will not delay
(Run run run till we catch them, we will not delay)
Legolas:
Well we knew all along
That the Orcs might notice that we pursue now
(We couldn’t have hid now we couldn’t have hid)
But since we had no other choice
We will do the best that we can all do now
(We couldn’t have hid now we couldn’t have hid)
For though we be only three
Nothing will prevent us from pushing through now
(We couldn’t have hid now we couldn’t have hid)
And we will run run run till we catch them, we will not delay
(Run run run till we catch them, we will not delay)
And we will run run run till we catch them, we will not delay
(Run run run till we catch them, we will not delay)
(Run run till we catch them, we will not delay)
(Run run till we catch them, we will not delay)
(Run run till we catch them, we will not delay)
(Run run till we catch them, we will not delay)
(Run run till we catch them, we will not delay)
(Run run till we catch them, we will not delay)
