Tonight We'll Drive Ol' Potter Down (PoA, Chap. 13)

(To the tune of The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down)

Dedicated to Mariner

THE SCENE: Slytherin Common Room. Enter MALFOY, FLINT, CRABBE & GOYLE

MALFOY
Draco Malfoy's the name, and harrying Harry's my aim 
The `mentors make him go limp, they tear up that Potter wimp
In Quidditch much to his lament, at their mere sight made a great 
descent
`Twas fifty feet, Potter so fell 
How we laughed, let us conspire oh, so well...

MALFOY, FLINT, CRABBE & GOYLE
Tonight we'll drive ol' Potter down
We'll be robed in black garments
Tonight we'll don dementor gowns
And we'll make mock of that varmint. We'll sing
.
M-ba-ha-ha-ha
M-ba-ha-ha-ha ba-ha-ha-ha

(Segue to the History of Magic classroom, as HARRY practices the 
Patronus Charm)

HARRY
Back in my class with Remus, see, when one day he said to me

LUPIN
Harry, try with me, to cast the Expecto P. 
Now, if your wand's wavin' right, then you'll conjure up a Patron so 
bright.
In a time of need it is the best
Those who can conjure the Patron are truly blessed

BOTH
A knight who'll drive dementors back
A stout shield it's bringin'
A Patron cuts `mentors no slack
Just keep those happy thoughts ringin'. We'll sing:
La, la-la-la-la-la,
La-la-la-la, la-la-la-la-la.

(Segue to the Quidditch field, immediately after Gryffindor's triumph 
over Ravenclaw)

HARRY
The next matchup before us was with Ravenclaw
And, with dementors before me, the Snitch flew to my paw
I just said EP, then a blast as my Patron knocked `mentors out fast
They cringed in the mud below our toes 
They were worse than `mentor scum, they're pals of Draco's. 

HARRY, RON, HAGRID, LUPIN, McGONAGALL & GQT
Tonight we laughed ol' Malfoy down
And at a point loss we're hintin'
Tonight Sir Draco plays our clown
Ev'ry Slytherin's flintin'. We'll sing:
Nyaa, nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah,
Nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah, nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah-nyah.
