A Lone Wolf (from PoA, Ch. 22)

(to the tune of By Myself – this song has been recorded many times. I 
was inspired by Judy Garland's magnificent rendition)

THE SCENE:  LUPIN's office. LUPIN has almost completed packing. Enter 
Harry, looking highly distraught.

LUPIN: (smiling, pointing to the Marauder's Map) I saw you coming,
HARRY: I just saw Hagrid,  and he said you'd resigned. It's not true, 
is it? 
LUPIN: I'm afraid it is
.

(music)
I'll go my way, a lone wolf, who's dancing his last dance
I transform to a full-blown wolf, but students' lives I can't chance
If learned that a full-grown wolf has been at Hogwarts teaching
I'd be an overthrown wolf, a flock of owls would take wing
I must now give you space, I'm packing up my suitcase
No one knows better than a lone wolf, I'm a lone wolf alone.

Snape exposed me by crying wolf, that's how my employment ends
I must be a good-bye-ing wolf, no more Dark Arts Defense
Full moon in the sky above puts the kibosh on my dreams
I've got to resign myself before some student gets creamed
It's now time to go, me and my grindylow
No one knows better than a lone wolf
No, no one knows better than a lone wolf
Harry, I give back the Map
Let's just say, "That's a wrap!"
As I watch the carriage arrive
And it's so long
All alone – a lone wolf – till Book Five!

Exit, as Harry give him a Standing O
