We spent these days and weeks,
staying on the path as best as we could.
We spent these days and weeks,
striving through the darkness of Mirkwood.
We had some initial luck,
a toss, a pull, we worked as a team.
We had some initial luck,
we found a boat and we could cross the stream.
Despite all the good advice,
we soon found ourselves sad and troubled.
Despite all the good advice,
Bombur fell in and our burden was doubled.
We heard the strangests sounds,
the darkness was deep, the path was narrow.
We heard the strangests sounds,
on a speedy creature we spent our last arrow.
Why oh why, are we treated as prisoners?
Why oh why, like fish in your nets.
Why oh why, are we now your captives?
Tell me now, are these spiders your pets?
Was it hunger, was it fatigue,
that made us follow the light?
Was it hunger, was it fatigue,
soon enough it turned dark as the night.
Bilbo awoke, he saw the spider,
the scariest thing he'd ever seen.
He awoke and he killed the creature.
He sure was no unlucky thirteen.
But where could all the dwarves be,
noone to be found by sun nor moon.
But where could all the dwarves be,
suddenly he saw cocoon by cocoon.
A hero awoke in our hobbit,
if it was brave or stupid depends.
A hero awoke in our hobbit,
In the end he managed to free his friends.
Why oh why, are we treated as prisoners?
Why oh why, like fish in your nets.
Why oh why, are we now your captives?
Tell me now, are these spiders your pets?
Our hunt for food and guidance,
was not performed with axe nor sword.
Our hunt for food and guidance,
bound in captivity was our reward.
Why?, you ask, are we then here,
my answer you will never get.
Why?, you ask, are we then here,
I won't listen to any threat.
