Omnia Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Get the halfling!
Saruman! Saruman!

Fuck you, Gandalf!
Saruman! Saruman!

Burn the trees down!
Saruman! Saruman!

Get the halfling!
Saruman! Saruman!

Get the halfling!
Fuck you, Gandalf!




Burn the trees down!
Get the halfling!

Overall Meaning

The lyrics to Omnia's song, Get The Halfling, depict a scene from J.R.R. Tolkien's The Lord of the Rings, where the evil wizard Saruman commands his army to capture the halfling Frodo Baggins, who possesses the One Ring that could ultimately destroy the Dark Lord Sauron. The repeated chants of "Saruman! Saruman!" show that the army is fiercely loyal to him, and they will do whatever it takes to fulfill his orders. As the lyrics progress, the anger towards Gandalf, who opposes Saruman, is palpable with the expletive "Fuck you, Gandalf!" and the desire to "Burn the trees down!" which was part of Saruman's plan to destroy nature in Middle-earth. Finally, the main objective remains as clear as ever, with the repeated cry of "Get the halfling!"


The song's lyrics convey the power dynamics at play in the story. The sheer force of Saruman and his army is highlighted by the repetition of his name and the aggressive tone of the chants. Additionally, the lyrics also touch upon larger themes of greed and destruction. Saruman's desire for power and control is so intense that he is willing to destroy everything in his path, including innocent halflings and the natural world itself. The choice of language and repetition drives home the seriousness of the situation and the urgency of Frodo's mission to destroy the One Ring.
