THE SCENE: The Atrium at the Ministry of Magic. Standing before the
Fountain of the Magical Brethren, Minister of Magic CORNELIUS FUDGE
promotes the newly established Magical Brethren Week

FUDGE:
Oh the centaurs hate the wizards
And the wizards hate the centaurs
They would rather kiss dementors
Than to treat each other with respect

But during Magical Brethren Week
Magical Brethren Week
Bane lets Dolores practice her saddleback technique
It's neat to act benign
Towards them that's half equine
And also it's politically correct

Oh, the owners hate their house-elves
And the house-elves hate their owners
There are witches who've been known to
Mount their severed heads in rows

But during Magical Brethren Week
Magical Brethren Week
Narcissa and Lucius beg to wash down Dobby's feet
`Cause being nice to imps
Does not turn us to wimps
So long as we don't have to give them clothes

Oh the goblins hate the humans
And the humans hate the goblins
You can hear some vicious squabblin'
During Goblin mutinies

But during Magical Brethren Week
Magical Brethren Week
Gringotts says they'll give away each silverwork antique
Step up and stoutly thank
The folks who control your bank
The robes of magic brotherhood we've donned
Be grateful, though, that no one else has wands!
