about

This is a parody of "Little Bribes" by Death Cab for Cutie, off their EP The Open Door EP.

lyrics

I haven’t heard from you in oh-so-long
I didn’t know that anything was wrong
I have to say, I don’t want to care that you’re gone, but I do

When we were young, we use to be good friends
Then you met Severus and that came to an end
When you read that letter, we just couldn’t amend, sad but true

So now I’ve come to realize that you and James have just died, leaving Harry

I never wrote you, didn’t care what’d you say
I married Vernon, and buried you away
I found your child at my doorstep today
Oh, what now?

So now we’ll have to take him in, since I was his only kin, the letter said
It was signed by Dumbledore, the man who had written me before, in shock I read

I guess we’ll take Harry in
But he’ll never have the life he could have had
We’ll stamp the magic out of him
And never tell him of you or his dad

I’ve been bitter at you for very long
I can’t tell you why now since you are gone
I never told you what I wanted to do
To learn magic up at Hogwarts school
I was rejected, I took it out you
So you see

I’ve held it in for all my life
I guess I’ll just be a good wife and raise my son

I’ll just leave Harry to Vernon
He’ll beat the magic out of him, though I’ll regret

I’m sorry, Lily

about

The Secret Broom Cupboard of Salazar Slytherin Columbia City, Indiana

I like to say we're the poor man's The 8th Horcrux. We've been doing our brand of parody wizard rock since 2010, though on hiatus. Composed of brothers James and Michael Mahoney (both Pottermore Slytherins) currently residing in Indiana. We have fun writing and recording our parodies, even if no one else listens.
