House Lines

Every year the House Cup
Is known as the big prize
But I would rather make some friends
And blur the Houses’ lines
I don’t care about winning
I want us all to say
That better than the House Cup
Is the friends we made along the way
Underappreciated
Underestimated
I’m more than just my house
It’s time that I announce we’re done with House lines
Get rid of these confines
Stop saying one is better
The House founders would never
Have let it get to this
Unless I am remiss
We’re done with House lines
Slytherins aren’t bad guys
Ravenclaws are not uptight
And whether you believe or not
Hufflepuffs are ready to fight
Gryffindors can be chill
So let’s all get along
Let’s be friends, forget your House
That’s why I wrote this song
Underappreciated
Underestimated
I’m more than just my house
It’s time that I announce we’re done with House lines
Get rid of these confines
Stop saying one is better
The House founders would never
Have let it get to this
Unless I am remiss
We’re done with House lines
Let us live our lives
Let’s all become allies
Destroy those stereotypes
Put an end to all the fights
Let us make new friends
It doesn’t have to end
At the Sorting Hat
I’m not gonna live like that
Underappreciated
Underestimated
I’m more than just my house
It’s time that I announce we’re done with House lines
Get rid of these confines
Stop saying one is better
The House founders would never
Have let it get to this
Unless I am remiss
We’re done with House lines
Get rid of these confines
Stop saying one is better
The House founders would never
Have let it get to this
Unless I am remiss
We’re done with House lines

You Belong

High up in a tower
That looks out on the grounds
That is where the common room
Of Ravenclaw can be found
We have our own library
And lots of comfy chairs
Come and take a seat with us
Relax and talk and share
You belong
To the blue and bronze
In Ravenclaw
We’re never wrong
Well, maybe sometimes
But we’ll figure it out
There’s no need to doubt
You belong
When a Gryffindor takes action
We’d rather analyze
When a Hufflepuff asks us for help
We’ll gladly give advice
When a Slytherin wants something done
We’re right there next to them
To figure out the best way forward
In case it comes up again
You belong
To the blue and bronze
In Ravenclaw
We’re never wrong
Well, maybe sometimes
But we’ll figure it out
There’s no need to doubt
You belong
Our House’s representation
Has always been subpar
But if you’re looking for the best
You don’t have to go far

Stars

I never wanted to leave you
My friend, my darling friend
I never wanted this to happen
But all good things must end
I’ll carry you in my heart
When you are far away
Our friendship will remain with me
Every single day
I cast this spell on you, my friend
With stars above and stars below:
May you never feel alone
When it’s time for me to go
May you always find your happiness
In memories of me
And never think what could have been
Instead, think what’s to be
Please don’t cry for me my friend,
Look up at the moon
Know that I am looking too
And you will see me soon
Count the stars tonight my friend,
Count up to twenty one
By the time you reach the end
Our time here will be done
I cast this spell on you, my friend
With stars above and stars below:
May you never feel alone
When it’s time for me to go
May you always find your happiness
In memories of me
And never think what could have been
Instead, think what’s to be
Take this magic with you
And hold it when I’m gone
You’ll find I have always been
With you all along
I cast this spell on you, my friend
With stars above and stars below:
May you never feel alone
When it’s time for me to go
May you always find your happiness
In memories of me
And never think what could have been
Instead, think what’s to be

Indoor Plumbing

I love it here at Hogwarts
I’m learning every day
How to be a better witch
In every single way
But there’s one thing I don’t love
I don’t think it’s just me
I’d rather have some peace of mind
When I have to pee
What’s the point of indoor plumbing if none of the bathrooms are quiet?
Moaning Myrtle’s crying
Draco Malfoy’s dying
The troll in there is trying
To cause some sort of riot
I’d rather be alone
Like I am at home
It almost makes me want to try the way that it used to be
I’m working very hard this year
To impress all my teachers
I even volunteered to help
In Care of Magical Creatures
I hope they’ll make me Prefect
I’d be the greatest leader
And access to that bathroom
Wouldn’t be bad either
What’s the point of indoor plumbing if none of the bathrooms are quiet?
Moaning Myrtle’s crying
Draco Malfoy’s dying
The troll in there is trying
To cause some sort of riot
I’d rather be alone
Like I am at home
It almost makes me want to try the way that it used to be

Little Things
02:58

It’s a sunny day at Hogwarts
The breeze across the lake
Rustles in the whomping willow
Its limbs begin to shake
I can hear Fawkes singing
His melancholy song
I nod my head and tap my quill
And try to sing along
It’s the little things
That get me through the day
It’s the little things
That make the darkness stay away
Sparks and cats and tea leaves
A laugh and a high five
It’s the little things
That make me feel alive
Seeing someone smile
Getting a spell just right
Visiting the owlery
On a starry night
Finding a hidden passage
That leads to somewhere new
Earning points for your House
For something that you knew
It’s the little things
That get me through the day
It’s the little things
That make the darkness stay away
Sparks and cats and tea leaves
A laugh and a high five
It’s the little things
That make me feel alive
Dementors try to bring you down
When they come, just look around
At all your friends, and cast a charm
Your Patronus will keep you from harm
It’s the little things
That get me through the day
It’s the little things
That make the darkness stay away
Sparks and cats and tea leaves
A laugh and a high five
It’s the little things
That make me feel alive
