about

Written by Dream Quaffle: Though I wrote the melody and lyrics for this one, the song belongs to the group because we all made it together! I have missed being part of a choir since the pandemic, so I wanted to try to put one together virtually (Eric Whitacre style). I love what we made :)

lyrics

Oh, my mistress comes from the House of Black
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
Her boy is gone, and he won’t come back
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!

And my new master’s a piece of trash
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
So I’ll take my butterbeer in a glass!
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!

All day and night, I’ll throw ‘em back
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
Though it ain’t as strong as an Irish Stout
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!

Oh, Mr. Crouch was a friend to me
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
And I gave my life to his family
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!

But he took my job and I got the sack
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
Now the butterbeer is all I have
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!

All day and night, I’ll throw ‘em back
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
Though it ain’t as strong as an Irish Stout
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!

Well, I made my livin' for a woman named Smith
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
Didn’t look like much, but she sure was rich
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!

'Til a pale young man came and robbed us blind
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
So I drink that butterbeer all the time
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!

All day and night, I’ll throw ‘em back
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
Though it ain’t as strong as an Irish Stout
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!

Them Malfoys kept me mighty low
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
Had an evil plan, ‘til I said “NO!”
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!

And now we toast to our victory
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
‘Cause the Potter boy went and set me free
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!

All day and night, I’ll throw ‘em back
Pour me a butterbeer, and make it fast
Though it ain’t as strong as an Irish Stout
‘Tis strong for a house-elf, sir!
