OK, it's a filk of my own song, so I suppose you could call it an original.
Lyrics
There’s a name that nobody wants to sayIf you do a lot of bad luck will be coming your way
A visit from the Dark Lord really ruins your day
And everybody’s worried he’ll perform a massive slaughter
The only greater wizard is Professor Dumbledore
Who teaches all the kids the wizard’s secret lore
How do you handle someone who is rotten to the core?
Nobody knows, but he could not kill little Harry Potter
Oh the evil one is dead, like that makes any difference
It’s easy to return in the world of science fiction
All you really need is the force of your conviction
There will always be a place for You Know Who
A whisper speaks to you from the inside of your mind
Telling you you’re gonna lose the race against time
It tries to lure you to an untimely demise
You gotta love those spirits who have unfinished business
Tell me why, when they come back from six feet underground
They always try the things that didn’t work last time around?
I think they get their motivations from the Bad Guys’ Lost and Found
Or maybe from the play-by-play in History of Quidditch
(chorus)
The Dark Lord has his allies, and they’re lurking everywhere
You can almost feel the evil palpitating in the air
At least it helps explain why sometimes life is so unfair
So blame the nameless one instead of living in denial
There’s good news; the good guys have got some friends as well
The kinds that will stand by you against the gates of hell
Their wands are broken and they have forgotten all their spells
But in your darkest hour they know how to make you smile
(chorus)
