FILK: Slytherin

[astratrf]

No: HPFGUIDX 55188

My husband is a long-time filk writer.  Having been dragged kicking 
and screaming into Potter fandom by his wife and son, he was unable
to resist the lure of a new topic for his filks.  He asked me to 
please post this one.  (Obviously, he isn't kicking and screaming any 
more!)

Slytherin,
Or, Harry's telepathic message to the sorting hat

To the tune of "Let 'em in" by Sir Paulie and Wings

Someone's wanting Gryffindor
Somebody's nervous as hell
Someone's wanting Gryffindor
Somebody's nervous as hell
Do me a favor 
Don't put me in
To Slytherin

(Repeat)

(BRIDGE)

Hufflepuff would be right on
Gryffindor has
Herm and Ron
Lots of houses
To put me in
Won't you ignore
Slytherin?  (Oh yeah)

Someone tell ol' Dumbledore
(That) somebody's needin' a spell
Someone tell ol' Dumbledore
(That) somebody's needin' a spell
I'll thank him later
If I don't go in
To Slytherin
