I'll Fly For Thee, Angelina (OOP, Chap. 13)

To the tune of  Don't Cry For Me Argentina from Lloyd Webber's Evita

Dedicated to Lilac 

THE SCENE: The Quidditch Field. As he tries out for Keeper, RON 
passionately implores Angelina to let him join Gryffindor's Quidditch 
Team.


RON:
This is not easy, I think you'll laugh
But I'll try to maintain I won't fail
If you will give a chance to the last Weasley son 
Take it or leave it.
And I will follow the path Wood once flew
Since now I have a worthy broom
A slick Cleansweep Seven brand-new

I have to try for Keeper, might be a gaffe, 
But this isn't the time to turn tail
Looking out for the Quaffle, until the game is won.
I can achieve it
Sweeping around trying it out, out of view
How can I express it at all?
This destiny I must pursue
..

I'll fly for thee, Angelina
In truth I'm no human Bludger
But unlike Vicky
Or Geoffrey Hooper
I'll do no whining
With Charm Club troopers

And as for Frederick and as for George
They've always derided me so
For it seems to the twins I am merely a prat
Because I'm prefect
They say there's some defect deep-rooted in me
The fans will forgive that whole thing
If I win a great victory

I'll fly for thee, Angelina
I'll give it the royal treatment
All through my field play
Let Slytherin scorn
I'm a Gryffindor 
Since I have been born

Have I said too much? 
There's little more I can show to you, I am no king
But all you have to do 
Is let me play to make the Hogwarts fans all sing!

(RON successfully blocks a Quaffle, dodges a Bludger and does a 
victory loop during the orchestral crescendo. Camera pulls back to 
reveal Harry, doing another detention with Umbridge, catching the 
faintest glimpse of RON'S loop from the open window.)
