a filk of "I'm Gonna Sit Right Down and Write Myself a

. . . click on "The Girl Next Door," for some reason

Dedicated to Haggridd, Grammar Guru

Scene: the Gryffindor 4th-year boys' room.  HARRY
wakes with a plan fully formed in his mind, as though
his sleeping brain has been working on it all night. 
Very softly, so as not to wake up his sleeping
roommates, he sings:

I'm gonna sit right down and write that guy a letter
And make believe that I'm okay
I'm gonna sound so fit and hale
He won't return to jail
No Dementor's gonna get him
When I've barely met him

I'm gonna smile and say my scar is feeling better
And close with hopes that Buckbeak's grand
I'm gonna sit right down, write Sirius a letter
And send it to some southern land.

I'm gonna smile and say my scar is feeling better
So he'll stay where he's safe from harm
I'm gonna sit right down and owl that guy a letter
And make believe I'm fine
For I've learned the cost of whine
Dear Sirius, please don't buy the farm!
