I'd like to thank Gail, once again, for encouraging me to post this
filk. This filk has been sitting around for a bit, and was inspired by
a thread about the differences between the US & UK versions of GoF. 

This filk is to the tune of "One More Night", by Phil Collins:

Scene: Voldemort and Wormtail are in the Riddle House, discussing
their plans.

Voldemort: "One more curse.. .my faithful servant at Hogwarts... Harry
Potter is as good as mine, Wormtail. It is decided. There will be
no more argument... One more curse..."

[Voldemort, singing]:
One more curse, one more curse
I've been trying oh so long, 
To let you know, let you know how I feel
And if Potter is to fall, 
Just help me back, to gain immortality

Peter, give me one more curse, give me one more curse
One more curse, 'cos my plans can't wait forever
Give me just one more curse, ooh just one more curse
Oh one more curse, 'cos my plans won't wait forever

I've been sitting here so long, 
Wasting time, in a body not yet grown
And I was wondering, is there a better way, 
Then I thought, maybe I could make a clone

Peter, give me one more curse, give me just one more curse
Oh one more curse, 'cos my plans can't wait forever
Peter, give me one more curse, ooh just one more curse
Oh one more curse, 'cos my plans won't wait forever
Give me one more curse, give me just one more curse
Ooh one more curse, 'cos I can't wait forever

'Till you give Potter to me, I will always be with you
And if you run away, I will follow you

Give me one more curse, give me just one more curse
Oh one more curse, 'cos my plans can't wait forever

I know forever this time who'll take the blame
If I see the failure of this plan
But unless you change your mind, I promise I'll be here
Provided you'll lend a hand

Give me just one more curse, give me just one more curse
Ooh one more curse, 'cos my plans wan't wait forever
Give me just one more curse, give me just one more curse
Ooh one more curse, 'cos my plans can't wait forever"

[Frank Bryce plays a sensitive sax solo...]

"But quiet...I think I hear Nagini... Nagini has interesting news,
Wormtail."

"In-indeed, My Lord?"

"Indeed, yes, according to Nagini, there is an old Muggle standing
right outside this room, playing the saxaphone..."
