FILK: When I’m 664

[Caius Marcius]

No: HPFGUIDX 124444


Nicholas Flamel in his first solo!

When I'm 664

To the tune of the Beatles' When I'm 64

Dedicated to the memory of Dr. John Kusalavage aka Haggridd (1949-
2005) - Now embarked on his next great adventure.....


NOTE: 664, for prosodic reasons, should be sung as "six-six-four," 
rather than "six-hundred and sixty-four."


There have been many reports of the Sorcerer's Stone over the 
centuries, but the only Stone currently in existence belongs to Mr. 
Nicolas Flamel, the noted alchemist and opera lover. Mr. Flamel, who 
celebrated his six hundred and sixty-fifth birthday last year, enjoys 
a quiet life in Devon with his wife, Perenelle (six hundred and fifty-
eight).

    -PS/SS, Chap. 13

THE SCENE: Flamel's Parisian Bookstore, circa 1391. He sings to his 
wife Perenelle of his breakthrough with the Philosopher's Stone

FLAMEL:
I'm making gold here, using the Stone, through my alchemy
Will we be surviving past Medieval days, live till it's nearly Y2K?
We will endure through six centuries, thanks to my bookstore.
Will we produce a modern Methuselah
When I'm 664? 
Hmm------mmm---mmmh. 
You're immortal, too. Aaah, and if you say the word, I'll get Stoned 
with you. 

It will be dandy, who could refuse, such delights will come
We will dwell together through the Renaissance, and post-Napoleonic 
France 
The Eiffel Tower, Les Miserables, maybe two world wars
Partake of the Rock `n' stop the clock tockin' till we're 664

We can use the Rock to live till they invent the opera. It won't take 
too long.
Magic Elixir
We'll let life insurance lapse, and become fixtures

Name on a Frog card, get mentioned in The Da Vinci Code 
Wealth and fame and power and longevity, better living through 
chemistry
And should we tire, minds organized, we'll ask Dumbledore 
To help us venture last great adventure when we're 664.
