From the Floating Log at Frogmorton

The Silmarillion (to the tune of Incense and 
Peppermints) 
  
Two trees of Valinor, twelve kinds of elf 
A strong urge to put the book back on the shelf 
Some female personnel, there's something new 
Somewhat repetitive, what can you do? 
  
Who cares what Valier were? 
This story's got no characters 
  
A Flood tale that splits the whole world in two 
A Rorschach for undergrads, one point of view 
A surefire sleeping pill, I've heard that too. 
  
Manwe, Silmarils 
Melkor, Silmarils 
  
Dead kings and several rings no one can find 
Feanor's the only name that sticks in my mind 
Chopping trees is always/ the worst you can do 
So what's Cirdan making then, mithril canoes? 
  
Who know where ents/ and hobbits came in? 
They missed the Creation myth/ seems like a sin 
  
Melian, Silmarils 
Mardil, Silmarils
