You came and stole it last night
Bet you've had quite a fright
Just had to touch this bauble that you found
Anticipating
Ooh, next thing you know, well, you're stretched out on the ground

I told you it's not a toy
You idiot hobbit boy
So what did you see?  A shadow of fear with a terrible Eye?
Well that's the Dark Lord
You're a Mordor-gram now, and you don't even know why

(Oh-oh, here he comes) Foolish Took, it'll screw you up
(Oh-oh, here he comes) It's a Palantir!
(Oh-oh, here he comes) Shut up boy, he'll screw you up
(Oh-oh, here he comes) To his Palantir!

Don't say that I didn't warn you
I know what he can do
He's deadly man, he could really tear your mind to bits
(Not that it matters)
Ooh, you look real bright, but you've really got no wits

(Oh-oh, here he comes) Foolish Took, it'll screw you up
(Oh-oh, here he comes) It's a Palantir!
(Oh-oh, here he comes) Shut up boy, he'll screw you up
(Oh-oh, here he comes) To his Palantir!

Ooh,
(Oh-oh, here he comes)  Here he comes, Watch out boy he'll screw you up
(Whoa-oh, here he comes. Watch out)   To his Palantir
(Oh-oh, here he comes. To his Palantir)   Ooh, he'll screw you up
(Oh-oh, here he comes)  Here he comes, to his Palantir
(Oh-oh, here he comes. Watch out)  You shouldn't have grabbed it last night, ooh
(Oh-oh, here he comes)  Foolish Took, it's a Palantir
(Oh-oh, here he comes. It's a Palantir)  So what did you say?
(Oh-oh, here he comes)  Here he comes.  Watch out boy, watch out boy
(Oh-oh, here he comes)  Oh, shut up, shut up, shut up, shut up
(Oh-oh, here he comes)  Yeah, yeah, it's a Palantir
(Oh-oh, here he comes. To his Palantir)  He's watching and waiting, ooh
(Oh-oh, here he comes)  Oh, It's a Palantir
