                 The Weasleys of "The Burrow"


Scene:  By means of an enchanted Flying Ford Anglia, Ron, Fred & 
George have brought Harry from Number Four Privet Drive to their home 
in the village of Ottery St. Catchpole, "The Burrow".

Ron, Fred & George:  Our family name is Weasley; 
                     "The Burrow" is our home.
                     Our family name is Weasley;
                     "The Burrow" is our home.

                     So you can get out of dad's car,
                     Maybe mum can't see us from afar
                     And we can sneak in without our getting caught.

                     For we are clan Weasley, a big family
                     And our little sister's name is Virginia.
                     Yes, the clan Weasley, the largest family
                     In the town of Ottery St. Catchpole.

Ron:                 And we had better get inside.
                     If mother sees us she will tan my hide.

Ron, Fred & George:  We'll wish we'd sneaked in without our getting
                        caught.
                     You see it's here Weasley, there Weasley; 
                     And Everywhere Weasley Weasley.

Fred:                Bill Weas--            Ron:  -ley!

George:              Perfect Percy Weas--   Ron:  -ley!

Fred:                Charlie Weas--         Ron:  -ley!

George:              The Twins Weas--       Ron:  -ley!

Fred:                Ronald Weas--          Ron:  -ley!

George:              Ginny Weas--           Ron:  -ley!

Fred:                Arthur Weas--          Ron:  -ley!

George:              Molly Weas--           Ron:  -ley!

Ron, Fred & George:  We are clan Weasley, one huge family,
                     And our little sister's name is Virginia!

                     All our dad cares about, you see
                     Are Muggles and eckletricity,
                     So it won't matter to him if we get caught.

Harry:               But Mr. Weasley, he'll help us.
                     He will, Ron, he will!


Fred & George:       We'll get inside "The Burrow" without our
                        getting caught.
                     We have to sneak inside "The Burrow" without our
                        getting caught.
                     But we tell you, Ron, it's tough
                     Unless you are made of the stuff
                     Of Weasleys, the Weasleys of "The Burrow".

Ron, Fred & George:  You see, it's here Weasley, there Weasley
                     Everywhere Weasley, Weasley.
                     Here Weasley, there Weasley
                     Look out!  There's Bill Weasley,
                     Charles Weasley, Humongous Bighead Percy Weasley.

Ron:                 Fred Weasley, George Weasley

Fred:                And ickle Ron!          Ron:  That's me!

George:              It's elementary, my dear Holmes,
                     We'll be stuck removing Garden Gnomes
                     If we don't sneak in without our getting caught!

                     By Merlin's beard!  It's here Weasley, there 
                        Weasley
                     Come on, "bro's", join in with me!

Ron, Fred & George:  Here Weasley, there Weasley--

Harry:               What's your Dad's name?

Ron:                 Arthur Weasley!

Ron, Fred & George:  Here Weasley, there Weasley--

Harry:               And Who is your Mum?

Ron:                 Molly!

Harry:               Here Weasley, there Weasley--

Ron:                 She won't spank you, but she will me!


All:                 Here Weasley, there Weasley
                     Everywhere Weasley, Weasley!

                     Forward Ho!
