The Lyrics

I thought this might fit in nicely during the early scenes of The Two Towers
[Legolas,Aragorn]How's it going back there?
[Gimli]OK, OK
[Legolas,Aragorn]How's it going back there?
[Gimli]OK, OK
[Legolas,Aragorn]How's it going back there?
[Gimli]OK, OK

And all hobbits think I'm pretty spry for a small guy

[Legolas/Aragorn]Gotta keep runnin' or the orcs'll give 'em hell

[Gimli]
You know we're hunting orcs that have snatched our little friends
We'll catch up with the buggers, and we'll bring 'em to an end
I have my axe held high, and I'm ready for a fight
We're gonna run 'em down, if it takes me half the night


[Legolas/Aragorn]
So how 'bout you? Have you seen this dude?
He's short and stumpy with a fighter's attitude
He has a big-ass axe with which he often hacks
To make his day, get in his way
But he's kinda slow at cross-country, though
Will we catch up with the orcs? Well we really just don't know
Forget cross-country

Hey, hey, do that sprinting thing

How's it going back there?
[Gimli]OK, OK
[Legolas,Aragorn]How's it going back there?
[Gimli]OK, OK
[Legolas,Aragorn]How's it going back there?
[Gimli]OK, OK

And all hobbits think I'm pretty spry for a small guy

So when we catch our quarry, I'm gonna crack some heads
And I'm gonna throw a party when we've made 'em all quite dead
The ranger's found their trail, now here comes the harder part
I really could have done with a day or two head start

[Legolas/Aragorn]
So how 'bout you? Have you seen this dude?
He's short and stumpy with a fighter's attitude
He has a big-ass axe with which he often hacks
To make his day, get in his way
But he's kinda slow at cross-country, though
Will we catch up with the orcs? Well we really just don't know
Forget cross-country

Hey, hey, do that sprinting thing

[Gimli]
So now I'm sweating alot because this armour's really hot
I'm gonna keep on running, till the hobbits we have got
Although I'm getting kinda wheezy, and I may just pass out
The elf'll think I'm weedy if I don't hang about

[Legolas/Aragorn]How's it going back there?
[Gimli]OK, OK
[Legolas,Aragorn]How's it going back there?
[Gimli]OK, OK
[Legolas,Aragorn]How's it going back there?
[Gimli]OK, OK

[Legolas/Aragorn]Gotta keep on runnin' or the orcs'll give 'em hell

So how 'bout you? Have you seen this dude?
He's short and stumpy with a fighter's attitude
He has a big-ass axe with which he often hacks
To make his day, get in his way
But he's kinda slow at cross-country, though
Will we catch up with the orcs? Well we really just don't know

Forget cross-country
Tricky old cross-country
He's runnin' like Mini-me
Hey, hey, do that sprinting thing

Another great capture of a fun dynamic in the movies. The refrain was inspired :c)
