Bombarda 02:38
There are souls that you meet Who knew that you'd be incomplete Without them, without them Faces that you never knew Reflecting, now a part of you Completing, in a manner of speaking I don't wanna say goodbye, I don't wanna say goodbye, It's like Bombarda to my heart It's like Bombarda to my heart... I look up at these castle walls Knowing they will never fall It's magic, it's magic All my friends are leaving now I can't even remember how My life was, and that's because I don't wanna say goodbye, I don't wanna say goodbye, It's like Bombarda to my heart It's like Bombarda to my heart... I know that we'll come back someday We never could have stayed away for long And though you are apart from me In the meantime there will always be our song I don't wanna say goodbye, I don't wanna say goodbye, It's like Bombarda to my heart It's like Bombarda to my heart It's like Bombarda to my heart Bombarda to my heart

Minding my own business when across the yard I saw A dementor staring at me, slowly creeping it did crawl My heart was racing and my hair stood up on end I cast the spell to help me now, thanks Professor Lupin Wait. That's not my patronus, that's my boggart That's not my patronus, that's my boggart Expecto Patronum, I expected more than this I wanted cute and cuddly but got slithering and hiss That snake is my boggart I think I'd take anything else, a frog, tiger, or lark No wait He said, "Just thank your lucky stars at least it's not a shark" His heart was racing when he saw those teeth and fins When that thing came out of his wand he did anything but grin Because That's not his patronus, that's his boggart That's not his patronus, that's his boggart Expecto Patronum, he expected more than this He wanted something furry but got a giant chomping fish That shark is his boggart She's got a story that compares, another dreary fate She said, "Your fears can't chase you without legs but mine has freaking eight" Her heart was racing when it crawled across the floor She was so scared she had to run right out the nearest door Because That's not her patronus, that's her boggart That's not her patronus, that's her boggart Expecto Patronum, she expected more than this She wanted something to adore but this she'd rather squish Because spiders are her boggart.

Some days I'll walk along the lake Or hang out in the common room You can find me in Herbology When the mandrakes start to bloom Sometimes I need some space to think Fresh air always does me good So I walk to my favorite place Even though I don't think I should There's a place I can go No one knows but me Where the leaves softly sway It's okay to be In the forbidden forest I'm all alone No one to talk to It's just me and all the trees In the forbidden forest I can take some time To find myself again where no one sees One time I saw a unicorn It was something to behold It filled the place with hope and peace And when it left the air turned cold I turned around and saw a thestral It stepped out from between the trees It looked like death but it was friendly Its tail was swaying in the breeze There's a place I can go No one knows but me Where the leaves softly sway It's okay to be In the forbidden forest I'm all alone No one to talk to It's just me and all the trees In the forbidden forest I can take some time To find myself again where no one sees

One of the three Deathly Hallows The first of three special stones Used for resurrection Turn it over the bones Of someone you would see again If you had the choice But first be warned, for they come back Without a soul or voice You can resurrect the souls of loved ones long since gone Or use the crimson sorcerer's to make sure you live long But there's a very special stone that you may not know But when we see the wavy lines we know that we are home This next stone was sought by many Believed to turn things to gold If broken down and turned to drink You will stay young, not old Those who searched had great desire To find this crimson rock It beguiled those who found That a mirror was its lock You can resurrect the ones of loved ones long since gone Or use the crimson sorcerer's to make sure you live long But there's a very special stone that you may not know But when we see the wavy lines we know that we are home The final rock indeed unique A magic not yet known Quite plain in fact until you work To see its secrets shown A labyrinth of fossils In a spiraling design Petoskey is its famous name In Michigan you'll find

Animagus Rap 01:28
You're putting all this work into Becoming something really cool An animagus wizard, wix, or witch Unfortunately there's a hitch If you turn yourself into a frog That's not nearly as cool as like, a dog So if you're gonna be an animagus, Impress us. I heard about this guy like several years ago Unregistered so nobody would ever know That his animagus form was a rat What sucker comes up with that? If I turned into a mouse I'd disgrace my Hogwarts House At least he's not a bug Do you think Rita Skeeter needs a hug? You're putting all this work into Becoming something really cool An animagus wizard, wix, or witch Unfortunately there's a hitch If you turn yourself into a frog That's not nearly as cool as like, a dog So if you're gonna be an animagus, Impress us. If your other form was a fish I guarantee you'd start to wish You were an eagle or a phoenix Just be careful that you pick Something that won't put you In an awkward situation, for real dude If a spider is your favorite creature, Change into something else I'll even be your teacher You're putting all this work into Becoming something really cool An animagus wizard, wix, or witch Unfortunately there's a hitch If you turn yourself into a frog That's not nearly as cool as like, a dog So if you're gonna be an animagus, Impress us.

Picked Last 03:04
There is a game that I love to play Rain or shine, won't back away Any time or any day I'll practice non-stop from June to May And I'm determined not to fail In blazing heat or winter gales Every time fight tooth and nail In this game I will prevail But there's a problem that I can't fix Every time I step on the pitch I am ready, my hands on the broom Then it hits me, that feeling of gloom Even though I'm so eager to catch that Snitch I'm always picked last for Quidditch And sure I am no Viktor Krum But please don't treat me like a bum We all start somewhere We all start somewhere And if you just give me a chance A little trust, a smiling glance I just might surprise you Yeah I might surprise you But there's a problem that I can't fix Every time I step on the pitch I am ready, my hands on the broom Then it hits me, that feeling of gloom Even though I'm so eager to catch that Snitch I'm always picked last for Quidditch Teams decided we play the game I hover there feeling quite lame But then I see it It's right there - believe it I chase that Snitch with all my might It's in my reach to my delight I grasp it tightly Tears of joy come lightly I have a problem that I can't fix Every time I step onto the pitch I am ready, my broom in my hands Smiling broadly, excited to stand Even more so I'm eager to catch that Snitch 'Cause now I'm always picked first for Quidditch Now I'm always picked first for Quidditch

Back 01:49
Well it's three years for me and it's eight years for you Oh wait no it's nine, you were a student here too Oh can you believe that we're finally back? No I just can't believe that we're finally back And now that we're back it's like we never left at all There are places you go you won't ever forget At first you're unsure but now you'll never regret From the green stately pines to the shores of the lake From the games that they play to the s'mores that they make And now that we're back it's like we never left at all There's another place still that we hold in our hearts Students go there to learn spells and magical arts There's a troll in the dungeon, thought you just ought to know Look away from the mirror because you're never alone And now that we're back did we ever leave at all? And now that we're back it's like we never left at all

And I know that we'll come back someday We know that we can't stay away for long, for long And though you are apart from me I know that there will always be our song, our song And it's Repairo to our hearts It's Repairo to our hearts

Our first year as the phoenix, a baby newly born We woke up bright and early, together every morning Our campfire shone brightly, we each had a new friend Empty faces at the start, too familiar at the end Oh we rise from the ashes, we come back every year Our campfire phoenix, we're together, we are here We'll make the most of the time we have Our time is short and soon we'll be ash But we'll rise again one day, me and my friend Year two upon returning, our flames are now apart But still we are surrounded by friendship, love, and art Challenging for one of us, but still we persevere Another summer come and gone, at least for one more year Oh we rise from the ashes, we come back every year Our campfire phoenix, we're together, we are here We'll make the most of the time we have Our time is short and soon we'll be ash But we'll rise again one day, me and my friend Our third year might be the best one yet, we come back yet again We've risen like the phoenix, the highest that we've been Hand in hand, we watch the flames turn from red to blue Making brand new memories, I'm glad I'm here with you Oh we rise from the ashes, we come back every year Our campfire phoenix, we're together, we are here We'll make the most of the time we have Our time is short and soon we'll be ash But we'll rise again one day, me and my friend For now the fire's been put out, another year will pass And in the time that's in between, we know our love will last I'll see you soon again, my friend, and we will play our part Until we are together next, you'll still be in my heart Oh we rise from the ashes, we come back every year Our campfire phoenix, we're together, we are here We'll make the most of the time we have Our time is short and soon we'll be ash But we'll rise again one day, me and my friend
