THE SCENE: Before the Quidditch World Cup. Enter BAGMAN and the TRIO

BAGMAN
Hey kids, toss the dice together
Dame Fortune's lovin' someone
And she's lighter than a feather 
I call the Quidditch Cup tonight
So stick around
You're gonna hear me do my voice trick,
Sonorum resounds.

HARRY
Hey, Hermy & Ronnie, have you seen him yet?
Though he's so played out, B-B-Bagman's making bets.
He's dog-eared and he's blundering
Yet Ludo has his serenade
And poor George & Fred were both misled
`Cause when it's time to pay he splits the scene
Oh, B-B-Bagman making bets.

BAGMAN
Hey, gang, make book on the Tri-Wiz
The odds are one-sided
But sure to win my guy is
I shall contrive, let me help Harry along
When he fights the dragon he'll have my hints
I'll win Gold on this shot so long

TRIO
Hey, Moody & Griphook, have you caught him yet?
Will he just fade out, B-B-Bagman will, we bet.
He's impaired and he's lumbering
Yet Ludo has his serenade
And with Fred and George he raised their gorge
`Cause when it's time to pay he splits the scene
Oh, B-B-Bagman making bets.
Bagman
