That Boy with That Lightning Scar

to the tune of “Star Spangled Man” from Captain America: The First Avenger

It starts as every great story does: a seemingly ordinary ‘nobody’ becomes a hero, and every hero ought to have a song, right?

Look who’s stepped foot into the Hogwarts School’s Great Hall
He’s sat on the stool and turned out to be a rare Hatstall
See him walk by, striding down the long corridor
Hear the whispers grow louder and louder
That’s a kid who is going to go far
That boy with that lightning scar!

Dealt with the threat and defeated the Dark Lord once again
Yet that boy shrugs off all that glory he gets and his fame.
You know the boy, who it is we are speaking of
Chose to be Sorted into the House of Gryffindor
He’s a Hogwarts school Quidditch star,
That boy with that lightning scar!

Determined and oh so brave at heart
(Saved the Sorcerer’s Stone and beat the Basilisk, didn’t you know?!)
A hero from the start to the very end, I tell you.
Who’s here to stay and will always be around to save the day
(Freed Azkaban’s prisoner)
Battles a dragon, ends up in the Black Lake and a giant maze
(Oh no, the Dark Lord has returned!)
Finds out his mind is connected to Voldemort’s
Witnesses the end of Headmaster Dumbledore
Who’s willing to take a stand?
The Killing Curse he can withstand.
That man with the lightning scar
He’s the boy who fought and got oh so far!
