And Now For Something More Light-Hearted... (Deathly Hallows Spoilers)

Here's my first DH parody, which finds Ron and Harry longing to be on the Hogwarts Express with the rest of the students. (And thinking of the Hogwarts Express gets me wondering, what ever happened to Trevor? Does Neville still have him? Did he die of old age? Fall victim to some cruel prank? He just sort of dropped out of sight...)

Hogwarts Bound (Homeward Bound)

Ron: I'm sittin' here in Padfoot's kitchen
Plotting locket theft and body-switchin'.
Harry: I am not a Horcrux fan.
I've seen how they affect a man.
Ron: I'd rather have a foolproof plan,
But if we can't do it, no one can.

Ron and Harry: Hogwarts bound,
I wish I was
Hogwarts bound.
Ron: School, with the Stinksap reekin'.
School, with the Mandrakes shriekin'.
Harry: School, where I'm swiftly Seekin'.
Feels like home to me.

Harry: After nights of creepy dreams,
I wake to hear Walburga's screams.
Ron: The elf's improved dramatically;
He's pleasant and he makes us tea.
Harry: I've got my friends for company,
But on the whole, I'd rather be

Ron and Harry: Hogwarts bound,
I wish I was
Hogwarts bound.
Ron: School, with the Stinksap reekin'.
School, with the Mandrakes shriekin'.
Harry: School, where I'm swiftly Seekin'.
Feels like home to me.

Ron: I might not board that train again.
It's such a shame how things end.
Harry: But I must press on doggedly
And fight for our democracy
While Death Eaters chase after me.
Ron: I hate that name that starts with "V"!

Ron and Harry: Hogwarts bound,
I wish I was
Hogwarts bound.
Ron: School, with the Stinksap reekin'.
School, with the Mandrakes shriekin'.
Harry: School, where I'm swiftly Seekin'.
Feels like home to me.
Feels like home to me.

I'm definitely sharing this with Dana. We've gotten past this part in the book, so I think it's spoiler free for the most part. He loves your parodies, as do I. In fact, just the other day he told me he had your LOST parody "We wish we could find an isthmus" stuck in his head! ;-)

Hehe, you can tell him I'm flattered! Or, perhaps, apologetic... :-P
