This is a filk of the song "Gettin' Out of Town" from the musical
"Forty-Second Street."


I dedicate this filk to Ginger.

                   Gettin' Out of School
(SCENE:  Fred and George Weasley realize that they have learned all
they are going to learn at Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry,
and want to leave in style.)

FRED::
We're grabbin' our hats and cloaks.

GEORGE:
We're leavin' this place for jokes.

BOTH:
But not without one last hoax.
Gettin' out of school.

FRED:
We'll make a big hullabaloo
Before we bid fond *adieu*,
Just ask that git Montague.
Gettin' out of school.

GEORGE:
Fiery dragons of green and gold;
Pink Catherine Wheels behold;
Down the corridors they rolled.
Filch and Umbridge were aghast.
Weasleys' Wildfire Whiz-Bangs last! 
Gettin' out of school.

BOTH:
Peeves flies by. He's sayin' bye, bye,
And we're shoutin', *"Accio!"*
Brooms coming while we wreck the plumbing.
Let's go! Let's go! Let's go! 

FRED:
As we left this prison camp
We made a Portable Swamp.
School corridor sure was damp. 
Gettin' out of school.

 
 

BOTH:
Peeves flies by. He's sayin' bye, bye,
And we're shoutin', *"Accio!"*
Brooms coming while we wreck the plumbing.
Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!
Let's go! Let's go! Let's go!

A new kind of company,
We're goona be *bourgeoisie*.
We're footloose and fancy free.
Gettin' out of school.
