When Harry Came To Stay
Ron invited Harry Potter to stay
I can’t believe he’s finally coming my way
For all this time I’ve dreamed of him from afar
Then he turned up last night in Dad’s illegal flying car
Was eating breakfast when he came down the stair
My face it went so red it clashed with my hair
I wanted to be swallowed up in a hole
But then I made it worse by knocking down my porridge bowl
Oh, Harry, I get so nervous when you’re near me
Why can’t I just be myself? (she never shuts up usually)
Oh, Harry, this isn’t he real me. Why am I clumsy today?
The day that Harry came to stay
Mum said we gotta go to Flourish and Blotts
I couldn’t speak because my tongue was in knots
Instead he spoke to me as I’d always wished
I nodded then I put my elbow in the butter dish
We went into the shop and joined in the queue
Professor Lockhart wore forget-me-not blue
Mum got all flustered and kept patting her hair
I turned around and I saw Draco Malfoy standing there
Oh, Harry, he’s just a bully
I said, “Just leave him alone!” (She wanted to stick up for you)
Oh, Harry, that’s more the real me - the first thing I managed to say
Since Harry came to stay
Then a fight broke out between Lucius and Dad
But Hagrid broke it up before it got bad
A voice yelled, “Get him dad!”, I think it was Fred
An Encyclopedia of Toadstools fell upon his head
Lucius fixed me with a hateful look
He glared at me and said, “Here girl, take your book.”
He thrust it at me taking me by surprise
I looked more closely and there was another book inside
Oh, Harry, what is this book that he gave me?
It’s just a blank diary (she’s gonna keep it anyway)
Oh, Harry, will you forget all about me, now summer’s fading away?
