THE SCENE: The First Task of the Triwizards Tourney. HARRY, full of 
fear and trembling, stands alone before the tumultuous crowd and the 
even more tumultuous Hungarian Horntail.

HARRY
Last up to do the First Task Tourney
Have a little Summons I gotta try
Gotta call somethin' I can fly on
I face a beast fiercer than a lion
As scared as can be, will it work, Hermione?
If I say,"Accio" to Firebolt.

(Just like a "charm," his faithful Firebolt arrives in
response to 
his Summons. HARRY, as he climbs on board, feels his spirit soar 
along with his body)

I'll take my broom in rising ascent
Time to hone in like a huntin' dog
Just take a moment now to hover
Let's use diversionary cover
I have been set free from all my anxiety
When I said, "Accio" to Firebolt

(HERMIONE leads a CHORUS OF GRYFFINDOR STUDENTS cheering HARRY on. 
Only RON refuses to participate.)

HERMIONE & CHORUS 
He said, "Accio" to Firebolt!
He said, "Accio" to Firebolt!
He said, "Accio" to Firebolt!
He said, "Accio" to Firebolt!

HARRY
Now is my time to advance 
And I feel completely at ease
It's just one more tough Quidditch game 
One Gold Snitch more to seize, uh-huh!
 
(Avoiding the Horntail's fiery breath, HARRY is wounded by a
spike 
from its mighty tail. Despite this, HARRY diverts her away from her 
nest long enough to grab the Golden Egg)

Ah, I'm hit, now, she's laceratin'
Horntails can whale you 'cause their tails really sting
But from off her nest she rises
I grab from her that egg my prize is
My broomstick flew me to this joyous victory
`Cause of "Accio" to Firebolt!

(HERMIONE again leads the chorus, with RON now enthusiastically 
joining in, as the victorious but injured HARRY is escorted to 
Pomfrey)

HERMIONE, RON & CHORUS 
He scores! "Accio" to Firebolt!
He scores! "Accio" to Firebolt!
He scores! "Accio" to Firebolt!
He scores! "Accio" to Firebolt!
