Here's one based on Shania Twain's That Don't Impress Me Much. Not much effort on my part.

I've known a few guys who thought they were pretty smart
But you've got being wise down to an art
You think you're a genius-you drive me up the wall
You're a regular original, a know-it-all

Oh-oo-oh, you think you're special
Oh-oo-oh, you think you're something else

Okay, so you're a Wizard
That don't impress me much
So you got the Staff but have you got the touch
Don't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alright
But that won't keep me warm in the middle of the night
That don't impress me much

I never knew a guy who carried a phial in his pocket
And mithril on his back - just in case*
And all that extra long chain through the Ring oughtta lock it
'Cause Menel forbid it should fall outta place

Oh-oo-oh, you think you're special
Oh-oo-oh, you think you're something else

Okay, so you're a Ringbearer
That don't impress me much
So you got the Ring but have you got the touch
Don't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alright
But that won't keep me warm in the middle of the night
That don't impress me much

You're one of those guys who likes to shine his weapon
You make me sew up your flag before the fighting begins
I can't believe you kiss your blade good night
C'mon baby tell me-you must be jokin', right!

Oh-oo-oh, you think you're special
Oh-oo-oh, you think you're something else

Okay, so you've got a Sword
That don't impress me much
So you got the moves but have you got the touch
Don't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alright
But that won't keep me warm in the middle of the night

That don't impress me much
You think you're King but have you got the touch
Don't get me wrong, yeah I think you're alright
But that won't keep me warm on the long, cold, lonely night
That don't impress me much

Okay, so what do you think you're Elfstone or something...
Whatever
That don't impress me

* alternate lines for Sam fans:
And some rope in his pack - just in case
OR
And some pans in his pack - just in case
