Scene: A young Arthur Weasley is giving a speech promoting his new 
group at Hogwarts, the Society for the Protection of Afflicted Muggle-
borns (SPAM)

To the tune of "Bui Doi" on the Miss Saigon soundtrack. 

Choir:

They're called "Mudbloods"
The dirty vein
Sent to our world
For shame and pain
They are the kinsmen we don't want
The ones we refuse to face
But we can't forget
Must not forget
That they are
part of the wizard race

Arthur:

Like all young wizards I once said
I'm so glad I was born pure
But now I know we give them
an unfair burden to endure

Without them, our kind would be extinct
Yet they still are thought as second-rate
The snake-heads still preach Salazar
And his doctrine of pure hate

They're called "Mudbloods"
The dirty vein
Sent to our world
For shame and pain
They are the kinsmen we don't want
The ones we refuse to face
But we can't forget
Must not forget
That they are
All good wizards too

These wizards have no home
Their parents afraid to speak
Worried that their children
Will be thought of as a freak

I hope someday to see a time
When choices override the blood
But until then, we must fight
The scummy Slytherin crud

They're called "Mudbloods"
The dirty vein
Sent to our world
For shame and pain
We should be kindly and gracious
And stop the vile spew
Because we know
deep in our hearts
That they are
All good wizards too

These are wizards and witches
just with a different past
We need to protect them
if we hope to last
Help me try

ARTHUR AND CHORUS:

They're called "Mudbloods"
The dirty vein
Sent to our world
For shame and pain
We should be kindly and gracious
And stop the vile spew
Because we know
deep in our hearts
That they are
All good wizards too
