We Wanna be Animagi!

 

THE MARAUDERS:

Unhappy… unhappy…very unhappy

Unhappy… unhappy

Very very very very very

Very very unhappy

 

REMUS:

Oh, I’m twitchy all that evening

And exhausted the next morning

Every full moon night

 

MARAUDERS:

Every full moon night.

 

SIRIUS:

I’ve spent a few weeks musing

Upon your sad state

 

OTHER MARAUDERS:

Unhappy

 

SIRIUS:

The solution is real amusing

It’s gonna be great.

 

OTHER MARAUDERS:

Unhappy

 

SIRIUS:

I have a brilliant proposal

To help you out of this hole.

Listen guys, I just know you’ll

Be thrilled to play this role.

 

* beat *

 

We ought to be animagi

We’ll all learn to change our shape.

We ought to be animagi

That way danger we’ll escape

We ought to be animagi

Make sure Remus is all right

We ought to be animagi

And keep him company all night!

 

We ought to be animagi

I’m sure we could do the spell

We ought to be animagi

So Remus won’t feel like Hell

We ought to be animagi

We can do it if we try

We out to be animagi

We’ll shift our shapes, Peter, James, and I!

 

JAMES: That sounds like a good idea!

 

MARAUDERS:

We want to be animagi

 

REMUS:

Are you sure?

 

JAMES:

We think it will be a smash.

 

MARAUDERS:

We want to be animagi

Change our species in a flash

We want to be animagi

Help you out when you are sick

We want to be animagi

Tell us, what shapes should we pick?

 

REMUS: Er…

 

SIRIUS:

We’re gonna be…

 

MARAUDERS:

We want to be…

 

SIRIUS:

We’re gonna be…

 

MARAUDERS:

We want to be…

 

SIRIUS:

We’re gonna be the greatest, grandest

And most powerful animagi in the world!

 

MARAUDERS:

We want to be animagi

We think we’ll shift to a dog and stag and rat.

 

PETER:

I just gotta be animagi

And grow whiskers just like that

 

SIRIUS & JAMES:

Grow antlers/fur just like that!

 

JAMES:

I want to be animagi

And grow horns upon my head.

I want to change my shape

So Remus will not bite me

 

MARAUDERS:

Run around in the forest nightly.

 

JAMES:

I want to be animagi

And get lots of girls in bed!

 

PETER: (spoken)

How will changing into a stag accomplish that?

 

JAMES: (spoken)

Shut up and let me fantasize, okay?

 

MARAUDERS:

Unhappy… unhappy…

So unhappy

 

REMUS:

Very very very very very

Very very…

 

MARAUDERS:

… sad.

 

JAMES:

We wanna be animagi…

Hold everything!  I think we’ve finally gotten it!  Sirius was right!

It wasn’t that hard after all!

Look at me, I’ve got hooves!

 

REMUS:

Guys, what do you think you’re doing?

 

JAMES:

Remus, we’ve got news for you!  We did it!

Here’s our fur, our antlers, and our big finish…

We’re gonna be animagi

Sound the horn and beat the drum

We’re gonna be animagi

 

SIRIUS:

Look out Forest, here we come!

 

MARAUDERS:

Look out Forest here we come!!!!
