Professor Quirrel
Wearing a face that he hid in a purple chapeau
How could we know
Hearing him stutter
Who would have guessed that his quest was to rip off the Stone
He's not alone


All the DADA teachers
Where do they all come from
All the DADA teachers
They never last too long

Gilderoy Lockhart
Tended to shirk at the work but he dressed with a flair
Setting his hair
Look at him posing
He'd have left Ginny to die in the basilisk's lair
What did he care

Hopeless Hogwarts teachers
Where do they all come from
Hopeless Hogwarts teachers
Where do they all belong

Remus J Lupin
Drove a Dementor away when it came through the door
Gave it what-for
Gentle and caring
Always supportive except when lycanthropy hit
He had to quit

Ah! What a sad and lonely creature!
Figh-ting Against the Dark Arts teacher

Alastor Moody
Locked in a trunk while his job was usurped by a punk
Even the clunk!
Barty was  smirking
Menacing Snape in the night knowing Harry was there
Setting a snare

All the phony teachers
Where do they all come from
Phony Hogwarts teachers
In Azkaban belong

Dolores Umbridge
She was up next in the line for the job that is hexed
Harry was vexed
Questioning Snivelly 
Snape wants the post, we've been told, despite Dumbledore's 
ban
His  name won't scan

Two more DADA teachers
Where will they all come from?
Two  more DADA teachers
Till I can end this song.
