It Is Marine (GoF, Chap. 23)

To the tune of Tom Lehrer's Send the Marines

THE SCENE: The Entrance Hall. As he is leaving the Yule Ball, HARRY 
is accosted by CEDRIC DIGGORY

CEDRIC: Hey-Harry!
HARRY (coldly):Yeah?
CEDRIC: Listen ... I owe you one for telling me about the dragons
..

(music)
You are too proud to ask
About the second task
So it's time for me to intervene
Does your egg make a fuss?
That's what we will discuss
Out task will be marine!

Just head straight for the bath
Where you can do the math
While in the prefect's basin you get clean
Insert the egg aquatically
As Myrtle floats neurotically
Then you will learn our task is marine!

So late at night,
The password you'll recite
At the statue of Boris
Right where the fifth floor is
And please be sure to watch out for Ms. Norris

Though you suspect a hoax
I don't indulge such jokes
Or act like Slytherins corrupt and mean.
Stop thinking it deception,
And employ your perception!
I do not tell you this thing so
You will lose face in front of Cho
It simply is a quid pro quo
For our next task - 
Which is marine!
