This is a filk of the song of the same name from the musical
"Forty-Second Street."

Tis is the sixth filk from the new filk-musical "At 12 Grimmauld Place".
                     We're In the Money 
SCENE:  (Now that Harry has bankrolled them, Fred and George Weasley 
have developed their Skiving Snackboxes and their Weasleys' Wildfire
Whiz-bangs, and have opened for business—funny business.)

FRED:
We got `em

SIXTH-YEAR CUSTOMER:
How much are they?

GEORGE:
Oh, twenty Galleons.

CUSTOMER:
Not the Deflagration Deluxe, just the Basic Blaze box.

GEORGE:
Well, five!

FRED:
We're in the money,
We're in the money,
We think that full-time education we've outgrown.


GEORGE:
We'd love some money,
Pay us the money;
And have a Wildfire Whiz-Bang of your very own.


FRED and GEORGE:
We've perfected our Wheezes, 
Each teases with glee 

And now you all can buy `em
At Diagon Alley, Ninety-Three.

We're in the money 
Just buy some, sonny,
Ignite `em, light `em,
Quite a glorious sight!
 

FRED: 
We're in the money,
We're in the money;
We've got the merchandise if you have got the gall!

GEORGE:
Don't cost much money,
These jokes are funny;
Every one guaranteed for laughs, they'll never pall!

FRED and GEORGE:
We've perfected our Wheezes, 
Each teases with glee 

Now one and all can buy `em
At Diagon Alley, Ninety-Three.
Look below our big marquee.
Buy one Snackbox, get one free. 


We're in the money 
The sky is sunny. 
Be brash, don't stash your cash, no,  
Don't stash that cash, let's flash it 
Buying, buying,
Buying from us!
