Here Comes Book Five!

to the tune of I Will Survive (hear the original at 
http://www.joycehurley.com/sounds/survive.ram)

Dedicated to all the HPfGUers who have waited so
patiently or impatiently

(Bloomsbury speaks.  Millions of Harry Potter the
world over, regardless of what language they speak or
whether they like disco, leap up and begin to sing)

First there was the boy who lived to get the Stone
Jo promised six more Harry volumes and the future
shone
So many of us hanging on what would happen next
She must be a witch from Bath, cause this book was
hexed

Into Hogwarts' Chamber we gladly went
And those dead-sexy stars of Prisoner, well, they were
heaven-sent
By July 2000 (G.o.F.), the fandom was a throng
Ten million strong, forming lines a mile long

Weve analyzed!  Picked nits galore!
Weve exhausted every theory, dont know what to say
no more 
Schoolbooks and movies couldnt keep us satisfied
We thought wed crumble--we almost lay down and died

But weve survived!  Here comes Book Five!
Oh, as long as Jo keeps writing them, well somehow
stay alive.
We face a hundred sixty days
Of anticipatory haze
But well survive, we will survive!
Hey hey . . .

Weve spent thirty-one months picking plots apart,
Dissecting poor old Trevor, parsing Averys heart
Whos Florence? JKR might ask, but we are
unashamed--
If things have gotten just a bit far-fetched, its she
who should be blamed

But now no more!  The ends in sight!
Well call in sick, stock up on snacks, and prepare to
read all night
Now were Ordering our Phoenixes and haunting the P.O.
Come June, well have em quicker than you can say
Accio!

Were lining up by the bookstore
Weve come with sleeping bags, were armed with copies
of book four
At 12:01 well trade our Sickles for a novel HP high
By quarter after, well know which special fan must
die

Here comes Book Five!  We have survived!
Thanks to Rowling and her wizard ilk, imagination
thrives
Well carry on our happy chore, re-reading one through
four
And then Book Five!  Here comes Book Five! . . . 



. . .and the jubilant voices fade off into the
direction of the nearest bookstore
