Refrain O Rubeus, Rubeus Where have you been? Did you go to the mountain To see kith and kin? Did you do what you should? Did you think you would fail? O, Rubeus, Rubeus Tell us your tale! Verse 1 T’was Dumbledore sent me He said I must go To the mountains I travel Through rain and through snow To the land of the giants To have a parle Invite them to join us Before it’s too late (Refrain) Verse 2 We came to the mountain The giants were there They were twenty feet tall But we couldn’t look scared We marched into camp And we met with the Gurg We gave him a gift And we gave him our word (Refrain) Verse 3 The Gurg showed us favor He treated us fair We thought we had won And we felt no despair We woke on the morrow To find he was dead The Gurg lost his throne When the Gurg lost his head (Refrain) Verse 4 The Death Eaters came The new Gurg took their side So we to the cave Where we knew we must hide We met the survivors We called them our friends Until the survivors They all met their ends (Refrain) Verse 5 We knew we must go And escape with our lives But we learned that my mother Was somebody’s wife Til she went through the veil Oh mother, oh mother You left me behind But you left me a brother! (Refrain)

Listen close, to this here tale, Of Cat, Rat and Dog, Tarry not, you must prevail, Over Cat, Rat, and Dog Cloaked in stealth, the Golden three Cat appears, for rat to flee Dog takes Ron into the tree Willows whip, heroes spar, Magic only goes so far ‘Til the cat shows where they are Something odd is going on, With Cat, Rat and Dog, Tarry not, your friend is gone, Thank Cat, Rat, and Dog Branches freeze, air goes stale, Tunnel, then a house of wails How will our heroes prevail? Up the stairs, they hear a crack They rush and hear, “It was a trap!” A man steps out with eyes so Black These animals, they have a plan, Cat, Rat and Dog, However Grim, he is a man, Black is the dog. “You will have, to go through us,” Murder sworn, Black is rushed, Crookshanks won’t let Black be touched. Harry stills, wand gripped tight, Will he end a life tonight? Something doesn’t quite seem right. Desperate and with much to fear, Cat, Rat and Dog, However there is more to hear, Of Cat, Rat, and Dog. Bursting in, to solve the case, Lupin stares him in the face, Then, a brotherly embrace. Reunited is the pack, Now there is no going back, Scabbers ratted out by map. Listen close, and listen fair, To Cat, Rat, and Dog Wolf appears and lays all bare, The Rat is caught, you’re made aware, Here is the truth, I solemnly swear, Of Cat, Rat, and Dog

You may think that wizards are All virtuous and wise, But if you land on Azkaban, You’ll find they’re telling lies. The cells are stuffed with wizard folk Of every rank and station, But not a single person from The righteous goblin nation. Sailing on past Azkaban Goblins never go there. Sailing on past Azkaban, Trade is very slow there. If you try to bribe a guard, Like everyone who enters, You will find it very hard, Because they’re all dementors. As you sit there sorrowing, Bereft of every pleasure, Goblins will be borrowing The best of all your treasure. We’ll keep tight hold of all the gold Of those the Auror catches. So let’s get back to Gringotts now. Batten down the hatches! Look alive, you sailor folk! Hoist the main and mizzen. Let’s head back to London Town, And speed on past this prison. Sailing on past Azkaban; Goblins never go there, Because, as we have said before, Trade is much too slow there. Heigh, Ho! On we go!

Fearsome Castle Durmstrang Home to students dark and strong Fires lit on magic stone Cold that chills ye’ to the bone Unplottable to Muggle eyes Dark Arts flourish, ostracized Why is their castle so remote? It can only be reached by f*ckin’ boat! Durmstrang’s might cannot be beat Our magic grim, our minds replete Of victory in the tournament Though Karkaroff sits so corpulent But we remember glory days When Grindelwald lead the way Viktor will be number one We’ll crush Hogwarts like so much scum! Proud wizards of Castle Durmstrang We all embrace Sturm und Drang Ushanka hats and iron boots We train in climes as Dark recluse Sailing upon the open water Subjugate, murder, and slaughter! So drink tonight, but beware Potter We stalk our quarry underwater. Proud wizards of Castle Durmstrang We all embrace Sturm und Drang Ushanka hats and iron boots We train in climes as Dark recluse Sailing upon the open water Subjugate, murder, and slaughter! So drink tonight, but beware Potter We stalk our quarry underwater.

Farewell and adieu to you Beauxbatons ladies Farewell and adieu, mesdames de Beauxbatons For we must away as the games have all ended But we will still write as our friendship goes on Chorus: We'll rant and we'll roar Like true Durmstrang wizards We'll rant and we'll roar All under the waves Until we strike soundings in the fjord of our castle From Hogwarts to Durmstrang in under a day We dove our ship down with a set of enchantments We dove our ship down into the Black Lake Down forty-five fathoms 'til we nearly hit bottom So we took out our wands and a portal did make (Chorus) The first portal took us to warm brackish water The second, it took us to salt of the sea The third was the last, for we sighted the shipwrecks So we started to rise up into the night breeze (Chorus) Then the charms were all cast to allow us to enter And into the grounds we finally sailed Past mountains, through valleys, and up to the cliffside Drop anchor and climb what before we abseiled (Chorus) Now let every wizard drink up his full bumper Let each raise a glass of butterbeer rich We'll drink and be jolly and drown melancholy And here's to the health of each good-hearted witch! (Chorus)

Oh Harry’s gone to Hogwarts to be a Gryffindor, Harry’s gone away to be a Gryffindor, Yes Harry’s gone to Hogwarts to be a Gryffindor, Harry’s gone away to be a Gryffindor Pretty work wave wands, pretty work I say Harry’s gone away to be a Gryffindor. x 2 Oh if I were a Hufflepuff and not a Gryffindor, I’d have to wear a yellow hat and work my fingers raw. Oh if I were a Ravenclaw and not a Gryffindor, I’d be the smartest student there has ever been before, Oh if I were a Slytherin and not a Gryffindor, I’d sneak and cheat and steal so that I always got more

They won’t teach us spells They say do not fight Do not be scared We know what is right They say we lie We don’t really know But harry saw the evil He fought long ago Chorus We will do our part Against the dark arts We will not ignore In the army of Dumbledore In the army of Dumbledore We will teach ourselves In secret we will hide We meet and train In the dead of night You can’t stop us now We will overcome Now we will show you What must be done Chorus We will do our part Against the dark arts We will not ignore In the army of Dumbledore In the army of Dumbledore

Steal away, boys; haul the chain, boys Swing her head round into the middle Bears she forward elf and wizard To the island in the cave We’ve been chosen for an honour Go along, now, with my master Do his bidding, and when it’s over You must come back home again Golden locket - wicked object! Tell me all that you remember Lead me back to where he left you On the island in the cave Deathly still and cold the water Black as oil and smooth as silver Rotten hands and rotten timber Gird the island in the cave You shall wait, and I shall empty Do we each our awful duty As I drown, then you must leave me By the island in the lake Break his locket, speak not of it From my mother keep our secret Never tell her, come whatever, Of the island in the cave

Watch the weather now, cast together now, see the lubber-lads quail! Shrouds a-shivering, timbers quivering, through Charybdis we sail! Our fine ship is the Circe, she’s sailed the wide world round, Her home port is at Durmstrang, for Hogwarts we were bound! Bearing, Krum our champion, revered in every land! Karkaroff in his cabin, and Viktor was in command! Watch the weather now, cast together now, see the lubber-lads quail! Shrouds a-shivering, timbers quivering, through Charybdis we sail! Viktor summoned the maelstrom, and down its depths we steered. Though the waters engulfed us, in Hogwarts’ lake we appeared! There victorious Viktor received his due acclaim, When the Goblet of Fire produced his prominent name! Watch the weather now, cast together now, see the lubber-lads quail! Shrouds a-shivering, timbers quivering, through Charybdis we sail! Autumn soon turned to winter, a lass turned Viktor’s head. Over our ship the Circe, a flow of romance spread, When a dueling disaster leaked potion in the lake, Giant Squid surmounted our galleon by mistake. Watch the weather now, cast together now, see the lubber-lads quail! Shrouds a-shivering, timbers quivering, through Charybdis we sail! Viktor was framed as the villain who wrecked the final task, Murder, mayhem, and magic, but Moody soon was unmasked. Though they soon would be parted, Krum’s sweetheart vowed to write. Karkaroff like a coward, slipped softly into the night! Watch the weather now, cast together now, see the lubber-lads quail! Shrouds a-shivering, timbers quivering, through Charybdis we sail! Though Dark Arts we have studied, our hearts are ever true! Speaking truth is our power, the Dark Lord soon will be through. Our home port’s still at Durmstrang we sail the Circe on, Seeking out ev’ry Dark Mark ‘til all his minions are gone. Watch the weather now, cast together now, see the lubber-lads quail! Shrouds a-shivering, timbers quivering, through Charybdis we sail! Watch the weather now, cast together now, see the lubber-lads quail! Shrouds a-shivering, timbers quivering, through Charybdis we sail! Watch the weather, now, cast together, now, see the lubber-lads quail! Shrouds a-shivering, timbers quivering, through Charybdis we sail! Swish and flick, and watch your wrist, your incantations clear! From the gunnel, watery funnel suddenly appear! Winds blow! Heave ho! We go below! Through the maelstrom now we go!

Magic, my nephew, it does not exist I wish that these owls would cease and desist Bringing you letters from this Hogwarts school You’ll never get one, for I am no fool (No fool, no fool, he is no fool No fool, no fool, he is no fool) Whispered: (Get - to the hut - on the rock - on the sea Get - to the hut - on the rock - on the sea) We will go somewhere that they’ll never find No, dear Petunia, I’m not out of my mind I’ll buy a shotgun with shells just in case We’re heading off somewhere, I know just the place (The place, the place, he knows just the place The place, the place, he knows just the place His mind, his mind, he’s not out of his mind His mind, his mind, he’s not out of his mind) Whispered: (Get - to the hut - on the rock - on the sea Get - to the hut - on the rock - on the sea) And here we are, would you just look at this It’s out of the way, and easy to miss I’d like to see someone try to find us here For they will be looking for over a year Hear the waves crashing up on the shore All talk of this magic will be no more We’ll sleep in this cabin, safe from the storm I’ll try to light a fire to keep us all warm (Here - in the hut - on the rock - on the sea Here - in the hut - on the rock - on the sea) A giant breaks down the door as he comes in Even with my shotgun, I could not win He says he’s here to take Harry away Says he’s a wizard and they cannot stay (Stay, stay, they cannot stay Stay, stay, they cannot stay Away, away, take Harry away Away, away, take Harry away) (Here - in the hut - on the rock - on the sea)

about

Hut on the Wrock: a Sea Shanty Comp was an idea created by the amazing wizard rock community when I posted in our wrock revival group: "wrock sea shanties. discuss." The community came together and created this awesome comp!!
