Moaning Myrtle (from CoS, Chap. 16)

(To the tune of Mona Lisa)

(THE SCENE: The First Floor Girls' Restroom of Gryffindor. Enter HARRY
POTTER, Ron Weasley and Prof. Lockhart.  HARRY, in the belief that she holds
the missing link to the Chamber of Secrets mystery, calls out to her)

HARRY:
Moaning Myrtle, Moaning Myrtle, so we've named you
This is Harry Potter 'pon your potty tile
Are you roiling in your toilet, 'cause they shamed you,
With that Moaning Myrtle whining that's your style?

Can we be privy to your riddle, Moaning Myrtle?
Is there some way to flush away your pain?
Secret sorrows often tinkle in your mem'ry
Did your dreams end at the U-bend?
Are you damp, are you soggy, Moaning Myrtle
In your cold and lonely, lovely porcelain?
