It is indeed fortunate that Hogwarts has the Room of Requirements; 
for that night when Harry felt a need to express himself in song, 
shortly after Professor Umbridge's putsch, he merely had to turn 
around and found a beautiful baby grand piano waiting for him.


(To the tune of Billy Joel's "Piano Man")

It's held in the room of requirements
When Hermione's Galleons get hot
Bewitched them by casting a Protean charm
NEWT magic, believe it or not

She said "Harry please teach us some real DA
'Cause Umbridge does nothing at all
But we know that He's back
And He soon may attack
The Wizard World soon in his thrall."


La la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

Chorus:
Teach us a spell, you're the Boy Who Lived
Teach us a spell tonight
'Cause we all know the Dark Lord has come again
And we will be ready to fight


Now Ron's always stuck with old hand-me-downs
He gets nothing that is new
But he likes a good joke
And he's quite a good bloke
But he's wond'ring what he will do.

He says "Harry I'm tired of poverty."
As the smile ran away from his face
"My brothers were head boys and quidditch stars
What's left for me in this place?"

Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

Chorus

Now Neville's the offspring of two aurors
Who we sometimes think is a Squib
And he's duelling with Harry
Though he finds these things scary
To get Grandma to lay off the bib.

And Cho Chang brought in some outsider girl
Who does not seem to fit in at all
Though she swears that her friend is innocuous
I think that Cho messed up this call.

Chorus

It's a pretty good crowd in the new DA
And Hermione gives out with a smile
'Cause she knows we'll soon be
Fighting with old Lord V
And his DEs that fill us with bile.

And Dobby appears in full panic mode
As the new DA scatters for miles
And Umbridge unfair grabs the Hogwarts chair
While Dumbledore flees but with style.

Oh, la la la, de de da
La la, de de da da da

Chorus 


David
