Dedicated to Mariner

THE SCENE: Diagon Alley, in front of Gringotts. Enter PROFESSOR 
QUIRRELL and (LORD VOLDEMORT) singing "back"up.

QUIRRELL (snapping his fingers)
Riddily Riddily T, Riddily Riddily T
Riddily Riddily T, Riddily Riddily T
Riddily Riddily T, Riddily Riddily T
Riddily Riddily T, Riddily Riddily T
(Sweet, sweet, sweet, sweet)

Such riches they're keepin' at Gringotts
Measureless treasures and precious ingots
But of all the gems that they have on loan
None's more priceless than the Sorcerer's Stone

The rock we're robbin' (sweet, sweet, sweet)
Rock, rock, we're robbin (treat, treat, treat)
That rock we're robbin', and the goblins will be shocked tonight!

We're sneakin past' Griphook to Seven-One-Three
But the vault we're assaultin' we find empty
Seems Albus D. and Nicky F. 
Have precautions made that are anti-theft

Our rock they're lobbin' (cheat, cheat, cheat)
Rock, rock, they're lobbin' (cheat, cheat, cheat)
Our rock they're lobbin', so our job is to unlock despite.

(Segue to Hogwarts, in the DADA's office)

I've got the students thinkin' that I'm just a joke
All garlanded with garlic for vampiric folk
But pretty soon the Hogwarts crew will wonder why 
They were bamboozled so by that stutter-guy

Despite the best efforts of the faculty 
We bet Potter makes it through the obsta-clee
That kid will be makin' his last stand
`Cause at the mirror Erised we'll demand
That rock we're robbin' (beat, beat, beat)
Rock, rock, we're robbin (eat, death eat)
That rock we're robbin', so the Dark Lord wins eternal life!

(oh yeah!)
