One Spell Ahead

(To the tune of One Jump Ahead, from Aladdin)

Dedicated to Haggridd

(THE SCENE: Dreamland. HARRY imagines himself fleeing all of his 
adversaries en masse, both great and trivial)

HARRY
Gotta keep
one spell ahead of the death squad
One charm ahead of their hex
I flourish with my quick Quidditch reflex
That's everything
One wand ahead of the lynch mob
One turn ahead in the maze
Gotta dodge ol' Voldy's green death haze!

VOLDEMORT
He's mine! 

AUNT MARGE
So rude!

DRACO & DUDLEY
Loser!

DEMENTOR
Soul food!

HARRY 
Cut a little slack, guys

SNAPE 
Rip him open, he's with Black, guys 

HARRY
I can take a hint, gotta face the facts
He is after me, you-know
 

ALL

WHO!!

CRABBE & GOYLE
Oh, it's bad, Harry's worse than Longbottom

RITA SKEETER
He's become a one-boy psycho ward

VERNON & PETUNIA
Blame his parents, `cause they spoiled him rotten! 

HARRY
Gotta flee to live, gotta plot to flee
Now, where could I have put Godric's sword?

Nine months away from the Muggles 
Three months away from my school
In either place I'm apt to find misrule
One meal ahead of the D-E's
One Mark ahead of the Dark
Don't think this is no stroll around the park

VERNON & PETUNIA
Dinner withheld!

CRABBE & GOYLE
Beat up!

SNAPE
Expelled!

HARRY
Let's not be too hasty 

HUNGARIAN HORNTAIL
Still I think he's rather tasty

HARRY
Gotta fly to live, gotta play to fly
Quidditch makes us get along! 

VOLDEMORT, DURSLEYS & SLYTHERIN
WRONG!

HARRY: One cloak ahead of detection
ALL: Orphan!
HARRY: One map ahead of the dots
ALL: Victim!
HARRY: One broom ahead of the Willow
ALL: Dwarfin'!
HARRY: Thank God, my head's on its pillow
ALL: Nicked him!
But don't make no mistake now
If I were awake now
All I gotta yell is "Fawkes!!!"

(Fawkes swoops down to rescue HARRY in the nick of time)
