Today, I'm looking forward to reading and listening to some of your songs! I believe you crazy kids call the thing "filking". A filk is taking a song whose tune you know, and making up new and different lyrics. The filk should be HP related. Some of the lovely girls of the Corner Booth Staff - Aislinn, SoonerGryffindor, Expelliarmus, Poet, Fawkes28 and futureweasley - have written and recorded an example for you...and I must say, I was quite tickled with this one. I'm hoping to have Ms. Warbeck do a cover of it on her next album! Without further ado, I'm pleased to present: "It's My Toilet" by the Corner Booth Gals to the tune of "It's My Party" by Lesley Gore Does anyone know where my Draco has run? And Snape ran off at the same time Why were they running away? My Draco has left in his prime! It's my toilet, and I'll cry if I want to Whine if I want to, mope if I want to You would cry too if Draco left you Flushin' around in the castle all night Staying away from Peeves 'Til Draco's back in my sight My broken heart's on my sleeves It's my toilet, and I'll cry if I want to Whine if I want to, mope if I want to You would cry too if Draco left you Blushing silver when he looked at me Draco confided his fears But now he's running away I wail and drown in my tears It's my toilet, and I'll cry if I want to Whine if I want to, mope if I want to You would cry too if Draco left you You can hear this song here Now it's your turn! Let's see what you kids have got! This post has been edited by Mrs Weasley: Feb 10 2007, 09:25 AM

I am anxiously awaiting to see what kinds of marvelous things you guys can come up with. -------------------- This Episode is so big, we needed Hermione's beaded bag WeasleyCast.Com

This one is especially for futureweasley, in tribute to a certain essay: sings Petunia, you’re breaking my heart, You’re shaking my confidence daily. Oh Petunia, I’m down on my knees, I’m begging you please come to me. Come to me Taking tea in the afternoon in Petunia’s Spotless sitting-room, (Taking tea) Potter laughed and I gave chase When I came back indoors, Vernon’s taken my place. Petunia, you’ve broken my heart, You’re shaking my confidence daily. Oh Petunia, I won’t wash my hair, Or my grey underwear I’m so lonely Oh Petunia, I’ll turn to the Dark, I’ll have a Dark Mark I’m unhappy You’re with Vernon, But at least I’ll be free, I won’t have to bring up your Dudley... *Snape scratches his head and walks off humming, feeling that there are compensations in all things!! With apologies to Simon and Garfunkel's Cecilia, and even more to Snape... -------------------- 'We read to make sure we're not alone.' (Shadowlands)

Cauldron Bottom Measurer Posts: 129 Joined: 6:40pm January 29, 2005	Here's one I wrote awhile ago. Well, Ron wrote it, but he was embarrassed to let anyone see it. I found it crumpled in the bin in the Common Room. He spent the whole afternoon staring at Hermione while he was writing it. He's too shy to sing it, but if anyone else wants to, be my guest. It's a little bit funny, this feeling inside that for a long while I've been trying to hide I don't have much money but boy if I did I'd buy a big house where we both could live If I was a teacher of Transfiguration, Or a wizard who makes potions in Howarts' dungeon I know it's not much but it's the best I can do My gift is my song and this one's for you And you can tell everybody that this is your song It may be quite simple but now that it's done I hope you don't mind I hope you don't mind that I put down in words How wonderful life is while you're in the world I sat in the common room quite at a loss Well a few of the verses well they've got me quite cross But my wand's been quite bright while I wrote this song It's for people like you that keep it turned on So excuse me for running as I sometimes do You see it's taken awhile to realize it's you, I know sometimes we quarrel and often we fight But being with you just feels like it's right Fighting the Dark Lord might cut our lives short I wanted to tell you before we see Voldemort Anyway, the thing is, what I really mean, Yours is the sweetest smile I've ever seen -------------------- "You heard them, just behind the veil . . . .
