This is a filk of the song "My Name" from the Lionel Bart musical 
"Oliver!", titled "Nobody Mentions My Name".  

Words meant to be italicized are enclosed within asterisks.

This filk is dedicated to Caius Marcus, for an unprecedented-- but 
completely deserved-- two-times-in-a-row.
            
                   Nobody Mentions My Name

SCENE:  He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named is giving a pep talk to his Death 
Eaters.

 
LORD VOLDEMORT:
Wizards are afraid to say it!
Though they hasten to obey it!
They will die if they betray it!
Nobody mentions my name! 

I smile when we torture Muggles
Yes, I quite enjoy their struggles
Watch when a Death Eater juggles
Mudbloods in praise of my name!

With my minions at my hand,
I will lead them all to war.
With Death Eaters to command
I will vanquish Dumbledore!

Snakes will hiss, cats yowl and dogs bark
When you fill the sky with green spark.
*"Morsmordre!"* summons the Dark Mark. 
Don't even whisper my name! 

Dark Lord! 

Witches tremble when they hear me!
They've got cause enough to fear me!
I'm much blacker than they smear me!
He-Who-Must-Not-Be-Named.

Though right now I have no torso,
I'm the leader you adore so.
I'll be stronger than before so
Everyone will hear my name!

Jorkins used to boast a claim
She could take my name in vain.
Bertha, shame she was so green;
Never was she seen again! 

But there is a little rotter
Who attends my *alma mater*
Son of James and Lily Potter
Able to say my name!
 
You-Know-Who! You-Know-Who! You-Know-Who! My Name!
