Expecto Patronum!

(to the tune of Hukuna Matata, from The Lion King) 

(The Scene opens to reveal HARRY POTTER AND REMUS LUPIN in the 
History of Magic classroom) 

RL (spoken)  The spell I am going to try and teach you is highly 
advanced magic, Harry – well beyond Ordinary Wizarding Level. It
is called the Patronus Charm. The incantation is this (clearing his 
throat) Expecto Patronum!

HP (spoken): What a magical phrase!

RL:(music) Expecto Patronum 

(waves his wand, bringing forth PRONGS, in a shimmering, silvery 
shape) 

Comes in a silvery glaze
RL &  P: It's manifested
In a manner that's sure to amaze
ALL: It will troubleshoot when things get acute
Expecto Patronum!

RL: When I was a young werewolf
HP & P: When he was a young werewolf
P: He found that the world did not give much hope
HP: To a youth diagnosed as a full lycanthrope
RL: I'm a sensitive soul when it's not a full moon
The motivations of others I will not impugn 
But, oh, the shame, 
When I'd  accidentally maim
Or if I'd disembowled....
HP: (spoken) Ah, professor – I think we're getting OT here..
RL (spoken, with reserve returned) Yes, of course
..

ALL: Expecto Patronum!
RL: Offers stunning displays
P: Dementors? – You own `em!!
RL & P: They glide away in a daze

P: It's a projection
Of your spirit's optimal rays
ALL: When you feel faint, call your patron saint!
Expecto Patronum!
