THE SCENE: Atop the battlements of the West Tower. SIRIUS BLACK, 
riding on Buckbeak, thanks Harry & Hermione as he prepares to escape.

BLACK
Just in time, you found me just in time 
Before you came, my time was runnin' down
No debate, I sat here to await
`Mentors who osculate, doomed for Ghost Town.
Now you're here and now I know just who I'm flyin'
No more Snape or Fudge, you bought Buckbeak
For Herm came to turn time
Harry came just in time
You proved you're James' son, you are unique! 

Just in time, you turned up just in time
Before you came, my cause was hopeless lost
Who would give hope to a fugitive 
Granted no right to live, twice double-crossed.
The `griff  you saved, and now I know where we'll be headin'
Not in canine shape, I shall escape
For Herm came to turn time
Harry came just in time

(Buckbeak begins flying upward)

You're truly James' son, you've set me free!
I'll proclaim at once
You are your father's son!
You're truly James' son, you've set me free! 

(Black and Buckbeak ascend into the clouds)
