Voldy's Back in Town to the tune of Mack the Knife sung by Bobby 
Darrin

Dedicated to CMC, whose website has been a boon to many a filker.


Scene:  The graveyard.  Voldy has summoned the Death Eaters and has 
requested that Wormtail announce his rebirth.  

As the Death Eaters appear, Wormtail waves his wand and 
mutters "Analgesia", a handy little spell for the temporary relief of 
minor aches and pains due to headache, muscular ache, minor pain of 
arthritis, toothache, backache, the common cold, menstrual cramps,and 
recently severed limbs.  Also temporarily reduces fever.

Wormtail:

Oh, the Dark Lord, has Death Eaters, 
With a Dark Mark on their arm.
And when one cries out "Morsmordre!"
It is cause for mass alarm.
Ya know our leader, met his match, babe, 
In that Hollow, years ago.
And that Potter who then defied him,
Is his greatest, hated infernal foe.

Now in the graveyard, huh, huh, ooo, on this night now, huh
Lies a body in death clothes clad.
Someone's sucking up bone fragmants
So he has a piece of his dad.

There's a servant, huh, huh, holdin' a dagger, doncha know
Just a waitin' to drop on command. 
Oh the dagger- it's a good sharp blade, dear
Right when he ways "when", old Master gets a hand.
Now didja hear 'bout Harry Potter?  He disappeared, babe
After grabbing that old Triwizard Cup
Now his blood is in the cauldron
And our own dear Master's standing up.

Now Lucius Malfoy, woah, yeah, Crabbe and Goyle, babe
Ooh, Avery and Macnair, in a queue around.
Oh, the hoods flock to the graveyard, 
Now that Voldy's back in town.

I said Lucius Malfoy, yeah, Crabbe and Goyle, babe
Crucio to Avery, and all those around.
Oh, the queue forms in the graveyard.
Now that Voldy's back in town.
Look out old Voldy is back! 

Ginger, with a special thanks to the makers of Motrin

Lines you'll never read in the HP series:
"Wormtail," Voldemort said with great exasperation, "When I 
said 'give me a hand', I meant you were to clap."
