Note: This song (from beginning to end) follows the tune and metre of the classic 80’s hit ‘Do You Really Want To Hurt Me?’ by Culture Club.

Summary: The One Ring pulls out all the stops in a final, desperate attempt to prevent its own demise … 

 

Dost Thou Truly Wish To Hurt Me?

*

Take thy time,

ere thee commit this crime,

Reflect o'er my appeal.

I have shone before thine eyes

thy desire I feel!

*

Dost thou truly wish to hurt me?

Dost thou truly wish to make me fry?

Precious must live,

do not burn me!

I do not deserve to die!

*

I can feel the fires burning,

‘tis all really too bizarre!

Precious begs thee not to drop me!

Murder is a step too far ...

*

Dost thou truly wish to hurt me?

Dost thou truly wish to make me fry?

Dost thou truly wish to kill me?

Dost thou truly wish to see me die?

*

Words are true I have spoken,

we shall rule in peace for years!

My pledge to thee lives unbroken;

do not be deceived by fears!

*

Thou hast fought my pull but hear me;

there is one thing thou must know:

this Ring loves thee beyond reason!

Do not dare to let me go!

*

Flame doth not appeal to me,

now take me away!

Mount Doom scares the life from me,

do not make me stay!

*

Dost thou truly wish to hurt me?

Dost thou truly wish to make me fry?

Dost thou truly wish to kill me?

Dost thou truly wish to see me die …?

(repeat to fade)
