Listen here: Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes

Written and performed by DMD
To the tune of “Maxwell’s Silver Hammer” by the Beatles.

Fred and George were blokes
Fond of always making jokes
Since they both were small
Cleverest twins of all, but their mom said
“No-o-o-o!”
In their room they went
Making loud experiments
The family just ignored
Thinking they were bored and just liked the
No-o-o-oise
Then Ludo put a bug in their ear
‘This could be our career’

Bang, Bang Weasley’s Wizard Wheezes
Rained down upon her head

Back at school again
The twins were acting fools and then
Umbridge got annoyed
Wanting to avoid a degrading
Sce-e-e-en
Tells them both to stay
She intends to have her way
‘Quidditch ban for life!
Your brooms I’ll lock up tight
So you’re off the
Te-e-e-eam’
But if she thought she’d stop them at last
The truth came with a blast!

On the swamp he slipped
‘Wait until I get my whip’
Filch caught both of them
When they heard “A-hem”
They decided to
Le-e-e-eave
Both yelled ‘Accio’
Brooms came flying; what a show!
Said ‘It’s time to go,
See us in Hogsmeade, we’re at
Ninety thre-e-e-e’
And as they left they looked back at Peeves
‘Give her hell from us!’
