What would a Ball be without music? And what would holiday music be without words? (no, don't answer that!)
So.....pick your favorite carol, holiday, or seasonal song, get your quills at the ready, and filk some Potter or Leaky-related words for us!
If you are having trouble remembering the "real" words for a tune, here are some links to help you get started:
Then, post your filked lyrics for us all to see! (Don't forget to tell us the tune, though  )
The Staff will judge them, and select a "Yule Ball Song" at the end of the Ball.
So what are you waiting for? Let's start singing! (or...writing as the case may be!)

This is the Dreidel Song that Spencer and I sang on PotterCast last year. Ofenjen (the crafty Witch Helper) and I wrote it together.
Chorus:
Oh Harry, Harry, Harry
He is the chosen one.
Potter, Potter, Potter
He's Hogwart's favorite son.
He has a friend Ron Weasley,
He'll help him in a pinch.
But please don't mention spiders,
They really make him flinch.
Chorus.
He has a friend Hermione,
She's really brave and smart.
When there's fear and danger,
She always plays her part.
Chorus.
There's a nasty boy named Malfoy,
He's Harry's enemy.
He's partners with the Dark Lord,
On that we can agree.
Chorus.
*takes a bow*

I used the dear old "Go, Tell It on the Mountain" as melody and inspiration for this offering.
Go, tell all through Hogwarts,
In the Great Hall and everywhere.
Go, tell it all through Hogwarts
That Dobby now is free!
While Malfoys once were watching
O’er Dobby in his plight;
Beyond, while Wizards struggled,
The Dark Lord came by night.
Go, tell it all through Hogwarts,
In dungeons, towers and everywhere,
Go, tell it all through Hogwarts
That Dobby now is free.
Most wizards feared and trembled
When Voldemort appeared.
But James and Lily Potter,
Loved, far more than they feared.
Go, tell it all through Hogwarts,
In kitchens, classrooms, everywhere.
Go, tell it all through Hogwarts
That Dobby now is free!
Their baby boy survived it;
And though Malfoy did mock,
Young Harry felt for Dobby
And Love gave him... a sock!
Ohhh....
Go, tell it all through Hogwarts,
In the Great Hall and everywhere!
Go, tell it all through Hogwarts
That Dobby now is free!
*Butterfly curtsies...flutters away quickly*

Oh my goodness Mullen, you've brought a tear to my eye. What a lovely filk.
*ahem* I don't think mine would fit in the category of "lovely"....more like "lame." Anyways, here goes....to the tune "I Saw Mommy Kissing Santa Claus"
I Saw Argus Kissing Madame Pince
I saw Argus kissing Madame Pince
Underneath the mistletoe last night.
He didn't hear me sneak
Down the hall to have a peek.
He thought that I was tucked up in my tower dorm asleep.
Then I saw Argus tickle Madame Pince
I'm not ashamed to say it was a friiiiight!
Oh what a laugh it would have been,
If Snapey had only seen
Argus kissing Mommy Pince* last night!
*Yeah, I know it's not canon. But wouldn't that be interesting just the same?

Keep Friendship In Your Heart
to the tune of When Christmas Comes to Town (from Alan Silvestri's score for The Polar Express)
HARRY
An Accio's the spell
Retrieving things astray;
Riddikulus done well
Makes boggarts go away.
But no charm has the magic
Of your friends who'll never part;
At Christmas time,
Keep friendship in your heart.
HERMIONE
I know so many charms,
But two do not exist;
To hug in someone's arms,
Or being gently kissed --
Two joys that must be magic,
Yet no incantations start!
At Christmas time,
Keep friendship in your heart.
Faithful ones have joy their goal,
Spreading love at Yule;
It glows and warms your insides like
A fiery magic jewel!
No one need be lonely
On the night of Christmas Eve,
When you know you're loved that way!
RON
When families gather 'round,
Or friend can be with friend
The Christmas song will sound
And never needs to end.
To be a friend or lover
Is the finest magic art;
At Christmas time,
Keep friendship in your heart.
ALL
At Christmas time,
Keep friendship in your heart!
--------------------
It wouldn't be right to dream, while
Forgetting to live, it seems;
Nor would it be right to dwell on life
And yet forget our dreams.
- If There Were No Magicians
