A/N Does anyone else think that Hogwarts IS a prankster's paradise? Coz, well, the possibilities are endless......imagine how much trouble you could cause if you had Peeves on your side!

So - can't you just imagine Fred and George in big suits and shades singing this?

Prankster's Paradise
Adapted by Helmione Nightingranger (Helen)

Fred: As I walk through the valley of the shadow of detention,
I take a look and my life
And think "I shoulda paid attention."
'Cause I've been jokin' and laughin' so long
That now ma mama thinks that ma mind is gone.

George: But I never blew up a toilet
That didn't deserve it

Fred: Me be treated like a punk?
Ya know that's unheard of
You better watch out
You're talkin'
And where you're walkin'

George: Or you and your homies might be turning into canaries.
I really hate the trip
But I gotta joke
As they study
(Pulling a face) I see myself
In the ministry
Fool.

Fred: We're the kinda wizards
Little homies wanna be like
On my knees in the night
Making excuses in the wandlight

Both: Been spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise
Been spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise
Keep spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise
Keep spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise.

George: Look at the situation
They got me facing
I can't live a normal life
I was raised by the Weasleys
Though I gotta be down with the prank team
To much Zonko's
What, ya got me chasin' dreams....

Fred: I'm an uneducated fool
With money on ma mind
Got ma tin in ma hand
And a gleam in ma eye.
I'm a hyped-up prankster
Set trippin' up the banker
And ma family is poor
So don't arouse ma anger
Fool

George: Punishment ain't nothing but a heartbeat away
I'm livin' life doin detention
What can I say?
I'm seventeen now
But will I live to see graduation?
The way ma mama's talkin'
I don't know

Fred: Tell me why are we
So blind to see
That the ones getting into trouble
Are you and me?

Both: Been spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise
Been spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise
Keep spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise
Keep spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise.

Geroge: The attention and the laughter,
The laughter and attention
Punishment after punishment,
Detention after detention,

Fred: Everybody's runnin'
But half of them ain't lookin'
What's goin on in the ministry?
But I don't know what's cookin'
They say we've gotta learn,
But nobody can teach us
If they can't understand it
How can they reach us?

Gerorge: I guess they can't
I guess they won't
I guess they don't get it,
That's why our lives are out of jokes,
Even though.....

Both: Been spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise
Been spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise
Keep spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise
Keep spending most our lives
Livin' in a prankster's paradise.

Fred: Tell me why are we
So blind to see
That the ones getting into trouble
Are you and me?

George: Tell me why are we
So blind to see
That the ones getting into trouble
Are you and me?



 OK. So  - did anyone else here find that kind surreal? Anywaaaay.
