Lyrics
I've just seen a face
I can't forget the time or place where we first met
I am a Balrog,
He was just a beardless Istari you bet
Rah rah rah rah-rah rah
He came into by smoking room
And called me names like Flame of Udûn
I failed to see the joke, I burned his bridge
But then it broke too soon
Ahhhh...
Falling, yes I am falling
And Gandalf's falling along with me
Falling, yes I am falling
And Gandalf's falling along with me
I got him with my whip
I made the daft old mongrel slip
He grabbed on to my mane
And now we're going down in flames, bad trip
Ow ow ow ow-ow ow
What a palaver
He beat seven shades of lava out of me
This freefall free-for-all
Is sapping all my flammability
Ow ow ow ow-ow ow
Falling, yes I am falling
And Gandalf's falling along with me
Falling, yes I am falling
And Gandalf's falling along with me
I've done some silly things
But that's the price that evil brings
And though I'm ages old,
I wish someone had told me I had wings
Ow flap ow flap-flap ow
Long I fell and he fell too
He tried to tell me what to do
When he said “fly you fool”,
You see he meant it just for me, not you
Ow, flap, ow, flap-flap splash
Falling, yes I am falling
And Gandalf's falling along with me
Falling, yes I am falling
And Gandalf's falling along with me
Through the caverns
To the top of Caradhras, you bet your life we stopped
That's not the tiring bit,
It's having too say “tag you're it” non-stop
Neah neah neah neah-neah neah
I could have had him beat,
But somehow he can stand the heat
I could have taken him
Except he had a magic ring, the cheat!
Raaah grrrrr raah
Falling, yes I am falling
And Gandalf's falling along with me
Falling, yes I am falling
And Gandalf's falling along with me
I've ranted and I've roared
I wish I'd stayed back with my hoard
I thank the evil lord
This wizard doesn't wield an elven sw-
Ooor! Falling... urh oh ow ... no no no... Ow Argh Arrgh
Falling, yes I am falling
And Gandalf's falling along with me
Falling, yes I am falling
And Gandalf's falling along with me
