It’s been eleven years since this begun
Death Eaters gave the Ministry a good run
It’s true, you almost beat us
But now You-Know-Who is dead and you lost your chance
We’re rounding you up all day
We’ll throw you all in Azkaban and take your wands away
Before, you had a chance to win
But that was before Harry Potter defeated him

Well, it’s true he killed the Potters
But it doesn’t matter
He’s disappeared now, it’s all the same
We caught Black in the act of a Muggle attack
He killed Pettigrew
And betrayed Lily and James
But still not everything is quite good
The Longbottom’s weren’t killed
But what happened was truly worse
We caught Bellatrix at the scene
The son of Crouch even, they had used the Cruciatus Curse

Bagnold said things’re good
Well, should, would, could, don’t matter anymore
You-Know-Who’s gone and that’s all there is to it
Woulda done more ‘bout the war, still
We’d escaped death’s door
Would ‘ave gotten him, but Harry beat us to it

When all’s said and done, we did our best, wasn’t enough
Though now that Harry killed him, your attacks are rebuffed
Round you all up, you’ll be away for a long time
Betray your fellow wizards, it’s a war crime
We’re all grateful Harry Potter was his demise
Even though Lily and James had to die

Eleven long, hard years we’ve had to fight
To keep our world aimed for what is good and right
Some great wizards died in the War
The Prewett’s, McKinnon’s, Fenwick, and Dearborn
Dorcas Meadowes and Edgar Bones, too
All in the Order, all died opposing you
I hope you suffer in your cells
After all the people who died, your lives should be hell

Ludo Bagman was accused, yeah, it’s true
No one agreed, but Crouch said it, so what could we do?
Council of Magical Law held a trial
Crouch was in denial
That Ludo got off with just a smile
Igor Karkaroff tried to save his skin
With fail, he begins
We already got Dolohov and Travers
Just as he’s about to be sent back
He makes a comeback, said Rookwood
We were silent as cadavers

With Karkaroff’s help, we caught a spy
Hidden before our eyes, no disguise
Department of Mysteries, access to the Prophecy
Let Karkaroff go, it goes to show
If Dementor’s eat your soul, no testimony
Lucky Barty didn’t make it policy

You-Know-Who is gone, you’re caught, so the war’s over
Work hard to give the families of those killed closure
All the trials held, all the ones who got away
Still, I think it’s fair to say
It’s a good day
Dumbledore is taking Harry to a safe place
After all he did for us, I want to say, “Thanks.”

Eleven years passed, now he is gone
It’s been dark all these years, time to turn the lights on
I do hope the peace we have will last
I hope the Killing Curse will never again be cast
Our future, it looks all clear
The Death Eater’s didn’t kill us, we are still here
Today, Dumbledore’s giving a speech
Back to business as usual, the start of a new week

Business as usual, start of a new week
Business as usual, start of a new week
We were right, the Ministry’s not weak
