This is what comes of drving a shuttle for four and a half hours and 
listening to the same song over and over again--my very first(and 
probably only) filk. To the tune of "Lifestyles of the Rich and the 
Famous" by Good Charlotte. I tried my best.

A spotlight shines on the center of a stage and a microphone. Prof. 
Snape walks into the circle of light, leans into the darkness, picks 
up an electric guitar, and pulls the strap over his head. He then 
turns around to signal the drummer.

SNAPE: And a one, two three-

You see him in the halls
Or even in the "Prophet"
Flaunting his scar and demanding sympathy.
All he does is strut his stuff
In front of all his friends
Talking about his perfect father

I'd like to see him spend a say
Disembowling toads
I don't think that's he survive
Or her could spend an hour or two
Spit-shining all my shoes
Humility is what he needs

Lifestyles of the famous Potter
He's always gettin' away with it
Always gettin' away with it
If he becomes too big a problem
Well we got detentions
Think I could give him one

You know if you were Potter you could help a murderer flee
Help an old school mate make a fool of me
'Long as the headmaster's there to aprove it
And did you know if you were caught and you were sneaking out
Hogwarts would just take you back
And you can always just run for head boy

I'd like to see him spend a say
Disembowling toads
I don't think that's he survive
Or her could spend an hour or two
Spit-shining all my shoes
Humility is what he needs

Lifestyles of the famous Potter
He's always gettin' away with it
Always gettin' away with it
If he becomes too big a problem
Well we got detentions
Think I could give him one

Lifestyles of the famous Potter
He's always gettin' away with it
Always gettin' away with it
If he becomes too big of a problem
He's such a big problem
Think I could solve it

Lifestyles of the famous Potter
I'll take insults, curses, mockery, just punish him!
Lifestyles of the famous Potter
Lifestyles of the famous Potter
Lifestyles of the famous Potter!

Prof. Snape takes a quick bow and exits the stage before the first 
tomato hits.
