Another One Fails the Class
to the tune of "Another One Bites the Dust" by Queen

NEVILLE:
Here I am in Potions class
With my cauldron on the boil.
I have to get it right this time,
Can't affort to let it spoil.
I measured, I cut and stirred,
But it's never any use.
Instead of turning royal blue
My potion's gone chartreuse.

SNAPE:
Another one fails the class.
Another one fails the class.
And another one flunks, and another one flunks,
Another one fails the class.
Hey! Ten points from Gryffindor!
Another one fails the class.

HARRY AND RON:
It doesn't matter what we do,
We can never get it right.
We might as well resign ourselves 
To detention every night.
Is it garlic?  Is it eye of newt?
How did we mess it up?
We tried to drink the end result,
But it dissolved the cup.

SNAPE:
Another one fails the class, etc.

HERMIONE:
I never get a potion wrong,
My work is all first-class.
I've got the textbooks memorized,
My lecture notes kick ass.
I do it! I get it right!
But it seems I cannot win.
Snape just calls me a know-it-all
And gives points to Slytherin.

SNAPE:
Another one fails the class, etc.
