Karkaroff's Trial


A filk by Gail B. to the tune of _Crocodile Rock_ by Elton John


Midi is here: http://www.midifilearchive.com/Rock-pop/elton.html

Dedicated to the Boss, CMC.

Note: Killjoys may point out that "alone" and "gone" do not rhyme.
Well, neither did "young" and "fun" in the original song. Deal with
it.

Another note: Instead of coming up with a whole new third stanza I
just repeated the first. Deal with it.



Harry is sitting at a piano, wearing a pair of mod-rocker sunglasses
instead of his usual round spectacles:

When Dumbledore left me alone
He and Moody with Fudge had gone
Waiting there 'till he returned
I saw D'dore's Pensieve and inside there I learned
Through the memories that were compiled
What had happened during Karkaroff's trial
With Dementors, Igor glided down the aisle
He was tied down and tried bound during Karkaroff's trial
Well, he was scared
But was prepared
To give a list of names to Crouch
He wanted freedom from Azkaban
And for that, Igor would vouch
Wow! How'd it happen when overnight
All of his sable hair turned white?
It was 'cause his trial made worse his plight

(Imitating Karkaroff blabbing off names at his trial)

Blah
blah-blah-blah-blah blah
Blah-blah-blah blah blah
Blah-blah-blah-blah blah

In a year or two things for him improved
He became Headmaster at some foreign school
A stool pigeon helping the Ministry
Igor turned in many who weren't known D.E.'s
Although Igor was in deep denial
He'd recall how he once was on trial
If his Lord was somehow restored
He really knew his treason wouldn't be ignored
Well, a while passed
When at long last
The Dark Mark began to turn clear
It had not since Lord Voldemort's time
And this thought filled him with fear
Ow! Now it's burning black again
Searing his arm with sharp pain
He fled, dreading that very soon he'd be slain

Blah...blah-blah-blah-blah blah
Blah-blah-blah blah blah
Blah-blah-blah-blah blah

When Dumbledore left me alone
He and Moody with Fudge had gone
Waiting there for his return
I saw D'dore's Pensieve and inside there I learned
Through the memories that were compiled
What had happened during Karkaroff's trial
With Dementors, Igor glided down the aisle
He was tied down and tried bound during Karkaroff's trial
Well, he was scared
But was prepared
To give a list of names to Crouch

And for that, Igor would vouch
Wow! How'd it happen when overnight
All of his sable hair turned white?

Blah...blah-blah-blah-blah blah
Blah-blah-blah blah blah
Blah-blah-blah-blah blah

Blah...blah-blah-blah-blah blah
Blah-blah-blah blah blah
Blah-blah-blah-blah blah
