"I've Got Hair Upon My Feet"
(based on "I'll Be Back Up On My Feet" by the Monkees; original words by Sandy Linzert and Denny Randell)
The four hobbits are sitting around a fire (on one of the slightly rare occasions when it was safe to light one) and looking rather glum. In an effort to cheer themselves they decide to sing a song, which Frodo began thusly:
[Frodo]
Yeah, we know the grass is greener just above Bag End
Had to leave our holes, but don't you fear.
[Merry]
Though the Road is watched and we might fail to find the end,
Let's be of good cheer!
[All]
We've got hair upon our feet!
We've got hair upon our feet!
Eat mushrooms and bacon, and then have a pint or two!
We've got hair upon our feet!
We've got hair upon our feet!
Lookin' high, we're lookin' low
When we find our pipes you know we're gonna smoke!
Hair upon our feet!
Ahhhhhh, ahhhhh...
[Pippin]
Maybe there's not much distance between our heads and ground.
We're the bravest hobbits in the Shire.
[Sam]
Maybe we will meet some orcs who'll push us all around,
But that's not our desire!
[All]
We've got hair upon our feet!
We've got hair upon our feet!
Eat mushrooms and bacon, and then have a pint or two!
We've got hair upon our feet!
We've got hair upon our feet!
Lookin' high, we're lookin' low
When we find our pipes you know we're gonna smoke!
Hair upon our feet!
Ahhhhh-ahhhhh...
(During the short instrumental, the four stand and begin dancing.)
[Sam]
Maybe we will meet some orcs who'll push us all around,
But that's not our desire!
[All]
We've got hair upon our feet!
We've got hair upon our feet!
Eat mushrooms and bacon, and then have a pint or two!
We've got hair upon our feet!
We've got hair upon our feet!
Lookin' high, we're lookin' low
When we find our pipes you know we're gonna smoke!
When we find our pipes you know we're gonna smoke!
When we find our pipes you know we're gonna smo-o-oke!
(The hobbits can't help but giggle, even getting a few chuckles from the other Companions.)
