THE SCENE: Gryffindor Commons in the early 70s. The young REMUS 
LUPIN, confronted by his three best friends, confesses the truth 

REMUS:
Bad night moonlight, bad night moonlight, bad night moonlight

The moon each month it waxes gibbously
It then changes me quite hideously 
I'm sprouting fur in a savage way
I'm a wolf out prowling for his prey

Bad night moonlight, bad night moonlight, bad night moonlight

If we should meet while moon is shining bright
They'll have to give you guys last rites

Bad night moonlight, bad night moonlight, bad night moonlight

(REMUS walks away, expecting that his friends will shun him 
henceforth. But the three lay their hands on him to affirm their 
camaraderie)

SIRIUS, JAMES & PETER
If  you retreat into the Shrieking Shack
We'll stay safe from your wolf attacks
Although it's sad that you're a lycanthrope
You have friends now who will help you cope

ALL
Good friends outshine,  good friends outshine bad night moonlight
