THE SCENE: FENRIR GREYBACK gives a pep-talk to his wolfish minons.

GREYBACK: 
I totally like all
Effects of the cycle
When I'm made to be a werewolf
That place where Buzz Aldrin once planted a flag
Gives me two more legs and a tail to wag
Just let me explain, be-
Tween me and Lon Chaney
There's really not much of a gulf
When wizards see the full moon rising, they cringe
They know they gotta meet us, the lunatic fringe
It's better than average
To monthly get savage 
When... I'm made to be a werewolf!

It's truly a great gift
When we get to shape-shift
When we're made to be a werewolf
When a lycanthrope through the countryside runs
They melt their best silver to put in their guns
They might call you timid
A bit of a dim kid
Or maybe they say you're a goof
Thanks to a gibbous trend in the lunar orbit
Those who look down on you may well be soon sore bit
We revel in moonshine
As it turns us canine
`Cause ... we're proud to be a werewolf!

GREYBACK AND CHORUS OF WEREWOLVES
How can we keep scowling
When we're out there howling
Once – we transform into werewolves
The people we hunt down, and pounce on and hurt
Just 30 days later are life-long converts
The anti-wolf hype all
Against my/your disciples
Does not really matter a poof

GREYBACK
Let Umbridge bring it on with her hemmingest frown:
We're gonna huff and puff and then blow her house down

GREYBACK AND CHORUS OF WEREWOLVES
We sing this grand carol
When we're growing feral
`Cause... we're proud to be a werewolf!
