THE SCENE: The Great Hall. Enter two first-year Gryffindor students.

1ST STUDENT: See that invisible boy over there?
2ND STUDENT: It's Harry Potter. Let's ask him
1ST STUDENT: Harry, is that an Invisibility Cloak you're wearing?
HARRY'S VOICE: Mm-hmm
2ND STUDENT: Some kids say they're great, but I just can't see it
BOTH: How'd you get it?

HARRY (music, whipping off the Cloak to reveal himself)
I used to keep my secret pains hid
Then I got to do what Claude Rains did

STUDENTS
We saw that picture!

HARRY 
That's when I became the owner of the Cloak.

HARRY (& STUDENTS)
It once belonged to Father before (fore, fore)
It was sent with a note from Dumbledore (dore, dore)
He told me, "Use it well,
Check out that silvery material!"
At age eleven, (I'm/he's owner of the Cloak.)

Whenever I must drop out of view
Or violate a Hogsmeade curfew
It has no evil powers, I presume
I'll never have to throw it in Mount Doom
(I'm/He's glad that I am/he is the owner of the Cloak.)

(spoken)
Bert sort of snarled as we said goodbye
His fangs were beginning to show
As he flew away on that rainy night
But I forgot the Cloak
And when we saw Filch, I nearly croaked

HARRY & STUDENTS
Look out! Look out! Look out! Look out!

HARRY (& STUDENTS)
I freak out Malfoy in my cool cape.
If I can only keep it from Snape
When at my scar they stop and stare
Or if I'm hiding and get stuck on stairs 
That's when I become (the needer of the Cloak)

(HARRY puts the Cloak on again, and vanishes)

STUDENTS
The owner of the Cloak - now he's gone
The owner of the Cloak - now he's gone
The owner of the Cloak - now he's gone
