THE SCENE: Dreamland – in a Canonically unrecorded dream of Year 
Five, HARRY'S ESE!Alter-ego strolls down the corridors of the D.O.M. 
A ragtime-style tune plays, tempo di sleaze, as the recitative begins

ESE!HARRY
My father was an Animagus from Godric's
He ran around with a rather odd clique
My mother wed my father, maybe she was forced
But an anti-Voldy policy they both endorsed
Losing your Mum to a curse
Can make your soul turn perverse
Yet, there are things even worse
.

Then I was changed to You-Know-Who
Such fun not to be named – Who knew?
Are you surprised I'm Voldy's twin?
I thought from the first he was kin 
When as a serpent I slid
I gave free reign to my Id
Now I'm one mean teenaged kid

I'm fed up with crime-free hassles
Being good gains no status or sway
Let me conquer Hogwarts castle
Grant submission - then, out of my way!
I'll take my ease with the DEs
They're the ones who will obey

What's there behind the first door?
My dark magical dream
That which is worth killing for 
My dark magical dream
Young and naïve, I'd deplore 
My dark magical dream
But now I'll launch total war
And I'll start my regime

Born for betrayal
Like good ol' Wormtail
Without the least paper trail
My dark magical dream

Those who dare think they'll oppose me
Soon they'll meet the brand-new Boy Who Can Kill
Evil powers, come enclose me!
I'll have my serpent and my own black quill
Hey, you Dursleys – you'll go firstly
Your Muggle blood I shall spill
 
See me proceed through the door
My dark magical dream
This place I long to explore 
My dark magical dream
Crystals from ceiling to floor 
My dark magical dream
Secrets concealed no more 
My dark magical dream

How I rejoice to be here 
My dark magical dream
Row after row of these spheres
My dark magical dream
Revel in hatred and fear
My dark magical dream
Vict'ry draws more and more near
My dark magical dream

Wands causing pain!
Start my campaign!
Let every foe now be slain
My dark magical dream!

(The Veil parts to reveal a large CHORUS OF DEATH EATERS, with top 
hats and canes, for the 100% singing 100% dancing 100% cursing finale)

HARRY & CHORUS OF DEATH EATERS
Sing we of sinister lore
In dark magical dreams
D-O-M on the ninth floor
In dark magical dreams
Prophecies once held in store
In dark magical dreams
Now shall be bought to the fore 
In dark magical dreams
That which good wizards abhor
In dark magical dreams
Begone, Snape and Dumbledore 
In dark magical dreams
 
HARRY
See Potter soar
As Voldemort 
And I will live evermore! 

ALL
My/His dark magical dream!

(Whistling, HARRY strolls down Row 97, plucks a sphere from off the 
shelf, and casually tosses it to Lucius Malfoy, who catches it just 
as the final chord hits – cut to HARRY'S room in Gryffindor, as he 
awakens in a cold sweat)
