Summer Night (a filk)

[Haggridd]

No: HPFGUIDX 54960

It's not often I go for a movie musical over a stage musical, but 
this song is one of them.  It is a filk of "Summer Nights", titled 
"Summer Night", from the movie "Grease".

I dedicate this filk to David Paterson.  I doubt I ever would have 
written this filk if it wasn't for his most entertaining "Wizard 
School Dropout".

                  Summer Night

SCENE: Gryffindor Common Room.  Harry and Ron have missed their 
second-year Sorting Feast and have been sent to bed with only 
sandwiches.  They are greeted by Fred, George, and the rest of the 
Gryffindors.

HARRY: 
Summer. Pudding smashed on the floor.
Uncle Vernon, he locked my door.
Summer. Spent it locked in my room.

RON: Summer. Harry forgot his broom.

FRED and GEORGE: 
Picked the lock; gave 'em a shock. Flew away in the summer night.

the summer night_______

the summer night_____
