The evil eyeball

Notes: Based on the "Lord of the Rings" books/movies. More the movies. This is - as you have most likely guessed from the title - Sauron's point of view of things... .Capo III

Chorus:
(G) I’m the (D) eyeball, (C) evil (G) eyeball
(G) Red evil (D) eyeball, (C) doom’s my (G) thing
(C) And I (D) want, (G) yes I (C) want
(G) Back my (D) precious (C) ring!
(G) And I (D) want, (C) yes I (G) want
(C) Back my (D) precious (G) ring!
C G C
D D7 G
C G C G
D D7 GFoolish mortals who think to deny me!
They all shall weep and they all shall fall
For I am the eyeball, the big evil eyeball
And I rule them yes I rule them all!Saruman the white is now the fallen
My will he does, my uruk-hai he breeds
For I am the eyeball, the big evil eyeball
And I’ll send them, I’ll send them to Helm’s deep!
CHORUSHaldir the elf to Rohan’s aide went marching
Which surprised me – what was he doing there?!
But I am the eyeball, the big evil eyeball
And if one more elf dies see if I care!The battle was fought and I defeated
What outrage is this, how could they dare
for I am the eyeball, the big evil eyeball
and my revenge will see how then they fare!Isengart left helpless was destroyed
By a bunch of walking leafy ents!
But I am the eyeball, the big evil eyeball
And nothing between me and Osgiliath stands!
CHORUS
A hobbit into my Palatir looked
Finally I know where the ring has gone
And I am the eyeball, the big evil eyeball
And this battle by me will be won!- long pause -
Minas Tirith – well, lets not talk about it
The army of the dead, Rohan’s riders and Islidur’s heir?
Gainst only the eyeball, the tiny insignificant eyeball
Rightfully I say that battle was not fair!Back to Mordor I withdrew my forces
To let them rest and just to wait and see
For I am the eyeball, the big evil eyeball
And now they dare to challenge me!CHORUS
To the black gate their army went marching
Where the ring went I no longer know
And I am the eyeball, and the stress here is on eyeball
“ may the lord of the black land come forth”, he says
Well, tell me HOW?So to smash them my army I send out
Not a chance in hell they stand against me
For I am the eyeball, the big evil eyeball
but why does my tower shake so strangely?
CHORUS with alternate text:No more eyeball, evil eyeball
Red evil eyeball, I am faaaling
They destroyed, they destroyed
My precious, precious ring!!
They destroyed, they destroyed
My precious, precious ring!!
(Cyclops Sauron) Chorus
