Parody of "Heaven on Their Minds" by Andrew Lloyd-Webber/Tim Rice, from

Legolas appears in a spotlight at stage-front and begins singing about Aragorn:

My mind is clearer now
At last all too well
I can see where we all soon will be
If you strip away
The hype from the man
You will see where we all soon will be

ESTEL!

You’ve started to believe
What your mother once told you
You really do believe
This talk of kings is true!

And all the times we’ve shared
Will soon be in the past
You see, you just don’t understand
It wasn’t meant to last!

Listen, Estel
I don’t like what I see
All I ask is that you listen to me
And remember
I’ve been your one true friend all along
You have told them all something
Said you really are a king
They won’t wait for you to say you’re wrong.

I remember when this whole thing began
Said your dad was a great nobleman
And believe me, my adoration for you hasn’t died
But every word you say today
To Someone’s ears it finds a way
And he’ll crush you if you go too far.

Rivendell
Your famous son
Should have stayed a great unknown
Like Lord Elrond said he should
He’d have made good
Twins and pranks and funny jests
Would have suited Estel best
He’d have caused nobody harm
No one alarm.

Listen, Estel, can you keep up this pace?
Don’t you see you must keep in your place?
Steward’s occupied
You really think he’ll walk out without war?
And Lord Denethor objects
To an upstart’s crazed subjects
And he’ll crush you if you go too far
If you go too far!

Listen, Estel, to the warning I give
Please remember, that I want you to live
But it’s sad to see your chances weakening with every hour
All your devotees are blind
Too much pipe-weed on their minds
You’re forgetting all about that Tower
Yes, you’re all on about power.

Listen, Estel, to the warning I give
Please remember that I want you to live
So Listen, Estel, to the warning I give
I— I just want you to live!
It’s all – gone sour!
