[Please note a lot of the singing overlaps, so it's best to
listen to the song and/or look at the original lyrics :)] 

Scene: Following Sirius' death, Harry is unable to cope and is on
the verge of suicide. However, if Harry dies, there is no chance of
defeating Voldemort.

ALBUS DUMBLEDORE
The Order NEEDS you!

REMIS LUPIN
WE need you, too!

HARRY POTTER (vehement)
I would much rather DIE than 
fight your little wars for you!

ALBUS/LUPIN
Harry, no! We care for you!

(ALBUS and LUPIN adopt their most persuasive attitudes)

ALBUS/LUPIN
Mister Potter, first boy to survive AK!
Your bravery, is telling me to assure you

ALBUS
Can you walk now from your loyal DA?

LUPIN
Think of how you're Griffindor too!

BOTH
Mister Potter, enchant us once again!

ALBUS
Think of the news

LUPIN
When the loser is Vol'mort!

BOTH
Will you defy him, the Dark Lord for sure?
Live, Mister Potter, once more!

(HARRY registers his acceptance as ALBUS and LUPIN continue to cajole
and the OTHERS reflect variously on the situation)

RON
Harry spoke of Tom Riddle


HARRY (to himself, in triumph)
Harry Potter, the boy shall live again!

ALBUS/LUPIN (to HARRY)
Think of your parents!

HARRY
You have a scar, but there's no mark that will stop you!

SYBIL TRELAWNY (to RON)
He was cursed, the man who once was called Tom Riddle

ALBUS/LUPIN (to HARRY)
Those who see your spells, liken you to a Riddle!

HARRY
Think of their cries when Voldie is caught!

RON
Why does this Riddle want Harry
?

ALBUS (to LUPIN)
We get our prophecy


LUPIN (to ALBUS)
He risks his own life!

HARRY
Follow where the moonlight leads you!

HERMIONE
Is this ghost, Tom Riddle or You-Know-Who
?

RON
Riddle or You-Know-Who?

ALBUS/LUPIN (aside)
Needing Harry is a trial!

TRELAWNY
Merlin help you, those who doubt


HARRY
You'll spell again, and stop Death eating the nation!

RON
DE's! Visions! 
Life-sucking curtains!

TRELAWNY
This mis-scarred thing will invite damnation
 

ALBUS/LUPIN
Tears
 Lies

Life-sucking curtains are regular occurrences!

HERMIONE
Death or salvation? Which will claim him
?

HARRY
Think how sun'll shine when that Riddle's no more
Live, Mister Potter once more!

TRELAWNY
Oh fools, to have doubted my warnings!

RON
Surely, for HIS sake


HERMIONE
Surely he'll strike back


ALBUS/LUPIN
Surely there'll be troubled teens - worse than this!

TRELAWNY
Think, be sure that the death signs are detected!

RON

 I must see these DE's are detected!

HERMIONE

 if these threats mean dark arts are detected!

ALBUS/LUPIN
Who'd believe a see-er, able to foresee a baby boy
who lived and lost his two parents?
Trelawny's prophecy, is Harry's destiny
Although he may deny, this is HIS path to fly

HERMIONE/RON
Harry must be protected!

HARRY
O, Alohamora! Wingardium Leviosa!

ALBUS/LUPIN
There's hardly more to milk, 
from this long-winded FILK
But if it's loudly sung, 
and in a parseltongue
It's just the sort of tale, 
that will never fail
In fact a perfect musicale!

RON
This war is over!

TRELAWNY
This is a war you cannot hope to win!

RON
And in Book Six a new page will begin


TRELAWNY
For, if his curse is on Harry Potter

HERMIONE
But if his curse is on Harry Potter

ALBUS/LUPIN
Harry Potter, the world is in your hands!
A nation waits, for all it hates be defeated!

HARRY
The stress that falls upon a
famous Harry Potter!
Terrible, be hexes, 
curses, scars that vexes
Still, with sobbing dread,
my throbbing head
will lead me to the Dark Lord!

HERMIONE/ TRELAWNY 

 then I fear the outcome


RON
Harry plays the Seeker,
Riddle plays the Dark Lord


TRELAWNY

 should you dare to


HERMIONE

 when you once again


ALL 
Be this the day we defeat this Dark Lord!
Live, Mister Potter, once more!

LORD VOLDEMORT
So, it is to be war between us! If this Potter is not 
dead, a disaster beyond your imagination will occur!

ALL
Once more!
