Under the Lake
A filk by Pippin to the tune of Under the Sea
Scene: the Prefect's bathroom
Enter HARRY with the egg clue. He runs a bath, takes off his clothes 
and gets in the water

HARRY
I shoulda been a whole lot keener
Why did I procrastinate?
Was I dreaming about going up here 
What for did I have to wait? 
Just look at the mess I'm in now
Right here in the Prefect's bath 
Then Myrtle comes out of hiding 
Just what is she  lookin' at? 

Under the foam, under the foam
There'll be no gawking 
Don't you be stalking 
Leave me alone! 
I'll hit the books I'll read all day
Where there's a wand there'll be a way
Some spell bequeathing
How to be breathing
Under the foam

[Some days later, Harry falls asleep in the library and is wakened by 
Dobby]

HARRY
Under the lake where the merfolk ramble 
They have  taken what I'll sorely miss 
Past an hour it'll be a shamble 
Worse than being dementor kisssed 
But the hostages are lucky 
I'm in for a worser fate 
Everybody's gonna know I blew it 
I'm  gonna be Draco bait 

DOBBY
Under the lake, under the lake
It will be breezy,
You'll find your Weezy, 
Make no mistake
Although you isn't find the book 
With gilly weed you's off the hook 
Having no troubles 
Under the bubbles 
Under the lake 

Under the lake,
Under the lake
No need to fake it
You're going to make it
Under the lake

MYRTLE
Though  Diggory  and Viktor Krum 
and haughty Fleur away  have  swum
You will surprise 'em, we'll Myrtle-ise 'em
Under the lake 

 HARRY
When I feed on the weed
I'm an ace in this race
I'm all grins with my fins
I've got  gills on my face  
The bass I can pass 
The chub I won't flub 
It's no fluke I'm the duke of this pond 
V. Krum will look dumb
No Ced up ahead
I'm  sure to pass Fleur
The squid must have fled
Like smelt and like sprat 
I'll leave them all flat 
And flow past that  grindylow 

Under the lake (under the lake)
Under the lake (under the lake) 
What the merpeople think they can keep will 
Soon make a break 
What do they got? A lotta sand 
I'll free each hostage from that band 
Fleur will be 'appy, I saved her Gabby
Under the lake!

[Harry frees Gabrielle and Ron and they swim ashore. Fleur ecstatically 
kisses Harry and Ron]

HERMIONE
Fleur was a drown out
Harry  got Ron out
Under the lake!

VIKTOR [aside to Hermione]
Don't vant to share ya
Come to Bulgaria
Under the lake!

CEDRIC [aside to Cho]
Why don't we try it
Before I buy it.
Under the lake!

JUDGES  
Top marks for Potter
Under the water
He did the task here 
More than we asked here  
He's a survivor 
With moral fiber
Under the lake!
