Whatever Became of Norbert
A Filk by Pippin
To the tune of "Whatever Became of Hubert" by Tom Lehrer
Original lyrics at

Dedicated to CMC -- and everyone who's old enough to 
remember when Hubert Humphrey was VP


Whatever became of Norbert?
Has anyone heard a thing?
He was big in Book One
But with his part done
We've seen not a scale or  wing

Hagrid's miniature Norwegian dragon
Harry's saga without him is  saggin'
We've got Grawp in  Phoenix, I know,
Still I get out the  Kleenex and blow.

"We must protest this treatment, Norbert,"
says each Potterverse reader.
As Rita wrote, dishing more dirt,
"Hagrid's a skrewt breeder."

(Sorry about that)

Whatever became of Norbert
We miss you, so tell us please.
Are you wild? Are you tame? Are you still just the same?
Shooting flame in a fiery sneeze?

Does Hagrid recalling when you were his own
Say, "Poor baby Norbert, now where do you roam?"
Do you dream you came back in Book Two?
Norbert, what happened to you?
