Written by Nina, Ann and Sloan, performed by Nina to the tune of “Desperado” by The Eagles

Angelina, why don’t you come to your senses
My Quidditch defences, are all aimed for you
Oh you’re a tough one, I know that you like my brother
For me there’s no other girl But you don’t see me
Don’t you go out with that fool now girl
He will leave you for another
You know the quiet one is always your best bet
I think we make a good team I’m a single human bludger
but you don’t seem to want me no you want Fred

Angelina, why do you have to go spoil it
I’d blow up a toilet if you’d come around
Oh and detentions, detentions I’d sit through a hundred
Have you ever wondered why I act like a clown
Don’t choose my twin he’s not your type,
He is really not that clever
Thinks it’s fun to trick you with canary creams
On the Quidditch pitch or by the lake I will cherish you forever
Listen to me girl you’re always in my dreams

Angelina, I yearn for your swinging tresses,
but nobody guesses, how you tear me apart
Whether in Charms class, or up in the common room,
While flying your broom, you’ve gone and Bludgered my heart.
I danced with you at the Yule Ball
You’re the cutest Chaser of them all
Your smile is wreaking havoc in my soul
So I beg you don’t show me the door
I feel so proud each time you score a goal,

Angelina, I know you’re thinking of Fred,
But my hair’s just as red and my heart is so blue,
Here, take this teacup – I swear that there is no potion,
Where’d you get that notion, have some more tea dear
What’s that? yes I’ll be dear, forever for you.
