You can call me Goyle
A filk on Paul Simon's "You can call me Al"

Dedicated to GulPlum for his wonderful essay on A and O levels, which 
answered so many of my wonderings, and also for his punctuational 
perfection.  


Harry sings to Ron:

A boy walks down the hall
He says Why am I hearing these voices now
Why am I hearing these voices
The rest of my friends don't hear all.
I need a course in parseltongue.
I want a shot at Salazar.
Don't want to end up a Slyth'rin
In a dungeon-like hall.
Polyjuice, polyjuice.
Fluxweed in moonlight.
Far away from my Gryffindor.
Mr Slytherin, Slytherin
"Get the heir away from me."
You know I don't find this stuff amusing any more.

If you'll be the pudding-head
I can be the comic foil.
I can call you Crabby,
And Crabby, when you call me,
You can call me Goyle.

A boy walks down the hall
He says Why do I get this attention.
I get "Heir of Slyth'ryn" attention.
Can only take it so long.
Where's Ron and Hermione?
What if I die here?
Who'll hear the Slyth monster?
Now that the Slyth monster is 
Gone, gone
He ducked back in the septic tank
With some roly-poly little pimply girl.
All along, all along
There were incidents of petrif'cation.
There were hints and allegations.

If you'll be the pudding-head
I can be the comic foil.
I can call you Crabby, 
And Crabby, when you call me,
You can call me Goyle.
Call me Goyle.

A boy walks down the hall
It's a hall in a dungeon.
Maybe it's the Slyth dungeon.
Maybe it's his first time around.
He doesn't know the password.
He knows no prefects.
He is a Gryffin boy
He is surrounded by the Slyths
The Slyths
Malfoy with his newspost clipping.
Drawingrooms in Malfoy Manor.
He looks around, around.
He sees serpents in the architecture.
Polyjuice is wearing off
He says Pomfrey! and Stomach potion!

If you'll be the pudding-head
I can be the comic foil.
I can call you Crabby
And Crabby, when you call me, 
You can call me Goyle.
Call me Goyle.
