HARRY
Do you remember the night I felt so uptight,
As we danced to the Weird Sisters Waltz?
The music was odd, and my partner was Parvati,
I was dancing with her `cause I had to take somebati 
I did not feel like somersaults 
As the dance floor was cleared
While we weaved to the Weird Sisters Waltz. 

Oh, the band wore black robes that were torn, la-la-la.
And they played a tune rather forlorn, la-la-la.
Bagpipes and celli, guitars, lute and drum
But Ron kept obsessing upon Viktor Krum

And Cedric got cozy  with Cho, la-la-la.
As Herm fraternized with the foe, la-la-la.
I thought as my cohort led me `cross the floor 
I would rather be dueling with Lord Voldemort

I remember the Ball `twas no fun at all,
When I danced to the Weird Sisters Waltz.
Percy's on Cloud Nine (if you'll pardon the metaphor),
And Maxime was bopping with our Albus Dumbledore 
I saw Gin under Neville's assaults
But I soon disappeared 
And abstained from the Weird Sisters Waltz.
