Away on Their Brooms

to the tune of “Man on the Moon” by REM

Playing Quidditch, bring their house pride
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Standing up for what they know is right
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
That doesn’t mean they won’t break the rules
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Making Filch and Umbridge look like two fools
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
“Give her Hell, Peeves,” that’s what they said
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
“See you in Hogsmeade,” as they up and fled
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

CHORUS:
Hey Freddy, which scheme was your favorite one?
Tell me how you got them all done.
Hey Georgie, how’re you doing with Weasley Wizard Wheezes?
Are you having fun?
Can you believe they flew away on their brooms,
Away on their brooms
Can you believe they duped filch and Umbridge
They owned that school

Sneaking to the kitchen to knick some snacks.
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
They owe their tricks to the Marauders’ Map
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Fireworks that multiply just for spite
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Mister Ludo Bagman had the gall to try
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[CHORUS]

Here’s a little magic they’ll remember forever
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Even teachers joined in on the joke
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
Flitwick didn’t think he had the right to clean it
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah
“A good bit of magic,” is what he said
Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah

[CHORUS]

Can you believe they flew away on their brooms,
Away on their brooms
Can you believe they duped filch and Umbridge
They owned that school
Can you believe they flew away on their brooms,
Away on their brooms
Can you believe they duped filch and Umbridge
They owned that school
