Shrieking Shack

(A FILK by Gail Bohacek to the tune of _The Love Shack_ by the B52s)

Important Note:

In order to fully appreciate this filk it is *imperative* that you sing 
along with the original otherwise all the repetitious lines loose it's 
groove.

Lupin and Back-up Vocal:

When you go into the village there's a scary little place, there in Hogsmede 
called the Shrieking Shack.  Shrieking Shack, yeah

Once every month I'm goin' to the Willow, goin' to the shack hide-a-way.  
Heading for the shack hide-a-way, shack hide-a-way, shack hide-a-way, shack 
hide-a-way

I'm a werewolf and every full moon I'm headin' on down to the Shrieking 
Shack.  I got me three friends, Peter, Potter and Black.  To help me, they 
each became Animagis

This old shack is the very same place where I would go each full moon.
Shrieking Shack, baby   Shrieking Shack, bay-bee
Shrieking Shack, baby   That shack, Shrieking Shack baby.  Way back.  Shack, 
baby, that's where I'm at.  Ooooo, werewolf, that's what I am.

I howl, Wooooo...stay away fools 'cause wolves rule at the Shrieking Shack!  
Well, it's a set way back in the town of Hogsmeade.  Before the moon rises I 
gotta get back.

Breakin' up the furniture
Bitin' my own body
Howlin' and a snarlin'
Scarin' the whole village

This old shack is the very same place where I would go each full moon.  
Shrieking Shack, baby.  Shrieking Shack, bay-bee.  Shrieking Shack, that's 
where I'm at!  Werewolf, that's what I am.

Howlin' and a-barkin'.  Scaring the whole village 'cause the noise that I'm 
a-makin'.  The whole town stays far away when they hear me again and again 
and again.

My three friends they help me.  They are Animagis, I say they hang out with 
me they help me to calm down.  My three friends they help me.  They are 
Animagis, I say
Shrieking little Shack.  Shrieking little Shack

I turn into a werewolf with a snout and a tail and I'm starting to wail!  I 
got me three friends, Peter Potter and Black.  To help me, they each became 
Animagis

This old shack is the very same place where I go each full moon.
Shrieking Shack, baby  Shrieking Shack, bay-bee
Shrieking Shack, baby  Shrieking Shack
Shrieking Shack, baby  Shrieking Shack
Ooooo werewolf, that's what I am

Howl, howl, howl at the moon, Lupin.  You can find him in there, Severus

Howl, howl, howl at the moon, Lupin.  James follows through.

Werewolf! at the door, baby!

Potter! saves Snape's life!

Werewolf! almost kills him!

Life debt!

The Prank!

Sirius Black...busted.

Shrieking Shack, baby  Shrieking Shack

Shrieking Shack, baby  Shrieking Shack

Shrieking Shack, baby  Shrieking Shack

Werewolf, that's what I am.



-Gail B. I *like* '80s dance music!
