Child of Prophecy
based on "Edge of Seventeen" by Stevie Nicks

AN: I tried to retain as much of the original punctuation as I 
could, random ellipses and all, since it seems as appropriate for 
JKR as it is for Nicks.


Now that we've read the book, 
We're all sitting here and thinking,
Who? Who? Who?
Now that we've read the book,
We're all sitting here and thinking,
Who, Joanne, who?  Say who?

And the theories fly 
 
Back and forth on the list
Trying hard to figure out
 
What is going on
Searching for clues...
Waiting for the next book.

Tell us, Joanne, who's the baby, then?
Who will reveal the power hidden within him?
Who is destined... to face up to...
Voldemort... tell us who
Is the child of
 prophecy

Now that we've read the book, 
We're all sitting here and thinking,
Who? Who? Who?
Now that we've read the book,
We're all sitting here and thinking,
Who, Joanne, who?  Say who?

I read today... maybe I'll reread again
Tomorrow.
All the plot twists there are so thoroughly...
Confusing.
Dumbledore, he says
"I will explain everything"
With the tale of the first war
And the words of a prophet.
It's confusing me... I don't understand it.

Now that we've read the book, 
We're all sitting here and thinking,
Who? Who? Who?
Now that we've read the book,
We're all sitting here and thinking,
Who, Joanne, who?  Say who?

The Dark Lord thinks it's Harry...
Is it true?
Will the plot change direction?
Will Joanne...
Give a clue?
Oh, Jo... let us know... how the blow...
Will fall?
Who will strike... at the Dark Lord...
Oh, please... tell us...
Who's the child of... prophecy

Now that we've read the book, 
We're all sitting here and thinking,
Who? Who? Who?
Now that we've read the book,
We're all sitting here and thinking,
Who, Joanne, who?  Say who?

The prophecy...
What does it... imply about...
free will?  Yeah yeah...
We're all so confused.
How is it ever going to come true? Come on, Jo, spill!
Oh, I went searching for an answer...
On the list... and on your site...
But found no answer,
Though I searched all night

On my laptop... surfing...
Need a clue, need a clue


Now that we've read the book, 
We're all sitting here and thinking,
Who? Who? Who?
Now that we've read the book,
We're all sitting here and thinking,
Who, Joanne, who?  Say who?

I'm obsessing in the morning...
And obsessing...
At nightfall...
Despite all this reading...
I appear not to be... succeeding

Oh, Jo...
Just how many years till Book Six?
(How many years to go till Book Six?) Oh, Jo...

Now that we've read the book,
We're all sitting here and thinking,
Who, Joanne, who?  Say who?

(repeat, over and over, as the music fades)
