Note: for purposes of this filk, Voldemort is pronounced with
silent 't'
UMBRIDGE
I am the very model of a Hogwarts High Inquisitor
I sit in back of every class as if I was a visitor
There'll be no deviation while I serve as an inhibitor
>From subjects in the syllabus which you will all be quizzing for
Although I do not soil my hands with matters strictly practical
I am the prefect parody of educratic folderal
As I bring Hogwarts to its knees with educational decrees
>From twenty-two to twenty-eight in Ministry bureaucrat-ese
ALL:
>From twenty-two to twenty-eight in Ministry bureaucrat-ese (3x)
HERMIONE
She looks all loveydovey with her velvet bow and cardigan
And yet she has a magic quill that carves out letters in your hand
Oh Harry go tell Dumbledore, the woman's a sadistic --boar
We cannot let her go on being Hogwarts High Inquisitor
HARRY
Your good advice I will ignore for I've defeated Voldemort
And surely I'm an equal for the Hogwarts High Inquisitor
UMBRIDGE
I have a thing for halfbreeds which is positively Freudian
I passed a law so Remus Lupin cannot be employed again
I sent Trelawney packing with my breathless phony hacking
'hem'
And my reforms are sticking cos the Daily Prophet's backing
them
And now that I have evidence against that old fool Dumbledore
I've proved he's raised an army and we're going to shove him out
the door
I'll use Veritaserum, I can prove that Potter's telling lies
And naughty Marietta tells that they've been meeting in disguise
THE DA
And naughty Marietta squeals that we've been meeting in
disguse (3x)
UMBRIDGE
I'll squelch this nasty rumour saying You Know Who is back
again
And I'll be the new Hogwarts Head before you can say Slytherin
And I will have accomplished everything that is requisite for
Fulfilling my assignment as the Hogwarts High Inquisitor
ALL
And she will have accomplished everything that is requisite for
Fulfilling her assignment as the Hogwarts High Inquisitor
UMBRIDGE
If Harry Potter doesn't talk I'm going to use a crucio!
Unless the little bugger tells me whom he was floo speaking so
It's time he was discredited, I do not need a dementor
I'll make him talk because I am the Hogwarts High Inquisitor
HERMIONE
No! Come in to the forest where a weapon's hidden carefully
And do not take your squad unless you trust them all implicitly
(And if you are not capable of fighting off a mad centaur
I think we'll finally get rid of the Hogwarts High Inquistor)
THE DA
I think we'll finally get rid of the Hogwarts High Inquisitor (3x)
UMBRIDGE
What I have learned from Slinkhard's book is highly theoretical
It's only useful when I'm fighting monsters hypothetical
The centaurs have surrounded me, my terror is exquisite for
They don't seem to respect me as a Hogwarts High Inquisitor
THE DA
The centaurs have surrounded her, her terror is exquisite for
They do not give a clop about the Hogwarts High Inquisitor
