Songs with the word Baltimore in the title are admirably suited to be
filked in connection with the Dark Lord. Problem is that there aren't
too many songs fitting that description.
This was the first:

And here's the second:
Where Are You, Voldemort? (OOP, Chap. 1)
To the tune of Good Morning, Baltimore from Marc Shaiman's musical
(via John Waters) Hairspray
THE SCENE: Little Whinging. HARRY, hiding in Dursley bushes,
complains of the apparent news blackout with respect to Lord
Voldemort.
HARRY
Oh, oh, oh
Here on TV
Will they tell of He-Who-Can't-Be-Named?
Oh, oh, oh
Angry at all those
Who would Death-Eat
But stuck on this street
I listen for clues
On the Evening News
With striking of baggage and
Chopper crash.
Oh, oh, oh
Rolling on out
Of the bushes in
Which I've been stashed....
Where are you, Voldemort?
Why do you wage a phony war?
It is all such a mystery -
Why you aren't making misery?
Where are you, Voldemort?
Once again no owl from Dumbledore
But soon they'll all know it's fact
Voldemort's came back
Oh, oh, oh
My Uncle Vern
Has lately discerned my hiding place
Oh, oh, oh,
He had his beefy hands `round my throat
To loudly emote
Their son known as Dud
Hangs out with his buds
He tells his folks,
"I'm with mates drinking tea"
So, oh, oh
Don't make me laugh
Since their son's such a hard-core J.D.
Where are you, Voldemort?
Where's the evil we all abhor?
Where's the rat who his friends betrayed?
Where's the DEs poised to invade?
Where are you, Voldemort?
I will swear by Godric Gryffindor
The world's gotta wake up to learn
Voldemort's returned
I've letters from Herm
I've letters from Ron
All written as if I'm some moron
And even the missives from Sirius Black
All seem to assume that
I do not know jack!
(Enter DUDLEY and his gang)
DUDLEY & GANG
He doesn't know jack!
HARRY
So, oh, oh
Give me a break
'Cause I simply can't take it outside the loop
Oh, oh, oh
Something inside of me makes me curse
At letters too terse
At Dudders I yell
While my scar burns like hell
Just like a driller inside my head
Oh, oh, oh
I'll pay V back
For his cold-blooded murder of Ced
DUDLEY & GANG
Where are you, where are you
..
Cold-blooded murder of Ced
HARRY (& DUDLEY & GANG)
Where are you, Voldemort?
Saw you at the end of Year Four
Where is your virtuosity
In inflicting atrocity?
And I promise Voldemort
There's a day when
I'll mop up the floor
We'll see through what you've contrived
What you've contrived
Voldemort's alive..
DUDLEY & GANG
The Boy Who Lived will not survive
HARRY
Voldemort's alive..
DUDLEY & GANG
The Boy Who Lived will not survive
HARRY
Voldemort's alive!
