Listen here: Only a Princess Knows How to Wear a Tiara

Written by weirdsis, and performed by Bingus McGee, based on the song “You’re Beautiful” by James Blunt.

I’m one-o-seven
I’m one-o-seven
Give me your seat
Refill my goblet
My aching feet!
George, your ears look lopsided
Ron’s hair is much too long
Xeno looks like an omelet
I’m freakishly strong

I’m Muriel, Aunt Muriel
I’m older now it’s true
When I was young I had lots of fun
My company men would seek
Then my nose became a beak
The twins pulled a prank
The entire room stank
That’s when I stopped coming ’round to the Weasley House
But I was once a popular witch
Got tiaras for gifts and loved to play quidditch

I’m Muriel, Aunt Muriel
I’m older now it’s true
When I was young I had lots of fun
But these days I feel so blue
I must take it out on you

I’m Muriel, Aunt Muriel
I’m older now it’s true
Don’t look at me that way–I’m still your great aunt
Once I get going I can really rant
I’d be nicer but I can’t
Call me Princess Grumpy Pants
