At the Burrow (filk)

[Caius Marcius]

No: HPFGUIDX 24328

In the Burrow 

(To the tune of In the Ghetto)

Dedicated to "Amber?" (the Amber who signs on with a question mark)

THE SCENE: The Burrow. HARRY provides an encomium to his favorite 
family while FRED and GEORGE provide backup

HARRY
As the ash clears
A boom resounds through a cloud of smoke
As George and Fred perfect another joke
At the Burrow

FRED and GEORGE
At the Burrow

HARRY
And their mama jeers
"If I hear from you two just one more sound,
You'll be going six feet underground"
Her brow's furrowed

FRED and GEORGE
Like Ed Murrow

HARRY
I'm helping Arthur understand
Why cell phones are in demand
As he marvels how Muggles get by through unmagical ways
Though Ron kept his fingers crossed
The Cannons once again lost 
But in his room his Chudley banners still brightly blaze 

And the Goblin cries
Molly shoves another serving on my plate
As Percy shows off that he can Apparate 
At the Burrow

FRED and GEORGE
At the Burrow

HARRY
And poor Pig can't fly
Ron dreams how he'll someday be Prefect
While Percy babbles on about cauldron specs
He is thorough 
FRED and GEORGE
Far too thorough

HARRY
Then one night in consternation
Ginny's afraid to speak
She's too anxious to say hello
When in the butter she stuck her elbow
As ol' Lockhart grins
And as the yard refills with gnomes
I sense I've finally found my home 
At the Burrow

FRED and GEORGE
At the Burrow

HARRY
As Ms. Warbeck sings
`Cause I never knew a family 
Could live together in such harmony
`Till the Burrow

FRED and GEORGE
In our Burrow!
