Filk: Tom he was a mudblood's son (and others!)

For quigonginger, because I've just read "Rodolohus," which was 
utterly marvellous!

I was inspired by the sudden rash of filks on the Harry Potter
Filk's page http://home.att.net/~coriolan/hpfilks.htm on the subject 
of Aberforth and the Goat. 

The (hopefully obvious) tunes of this little nursery rhyme triptych 
are "I Had a Little Nut Tree," "Tom he was a Piper's Son," and "Oh 
Dear What Can the Matter Be?"

*

I had a little hercine
Nothing could compare
To her loving dark eyes
And her silky hair. 

The journos of the Prophet 
All turned out to gloat
When I was convicted of
Inappropriate charms on a goat. 

*

Tom he was a Mudblood's son, 
Learned the Dark Arts when he was young.
By eighteen he could use AK!
The Riddle family to slay.

Don't leave your wife if she's a witch – 
Payback always is a bitch!

*

Oh dear, what can the matter be
Moaning Myrtle's stuck in the lavatory
Even though it's sad and unsanitary
Nobody in Hogwarts cared. 

The basilisk petrified ghosts, girls, and boys yet
The staff were completely unable to foil it.
If Harry should die he could share Myrtle's toilet – 
It's a good thing the phoenix was there.
