My first filk! A parody of that ubiquitous klezmer song, "Hava Nagila". Just came out of nowhere...yes, I'm still working on all my would-be serious, long stuff, but this came into my head all of a sudden and I had to write it down. Heh. Somehow, it makes me think of Voldemort, snake-y nostrils and red eyes and all, dancing around in a circle with all his aunts and uncles and distant cousins, while his friends lift up various family members on chairs and dance with them around the room. (What? You/your friends didn't do that during your/their bar/bat mitzvahs? Geez, people, you don't know what you were missing.) At any rate, Nagini never *did* get to eat anyone, as far as I know, so I thought I'd give her a little snack...heh heh...

yours from under the bed,

Hava Nagini, hava Nagini,
Hava Nagini
She's a giant snake!

Hava Nagini, hava Nagini
Hava Nagini
Favorite food: Man steak!

Voldemort promised meat
(Gee, boss, that's really sweet...)
But everyone escaped defeat
Poor snake got apple sauce.

Dark Lords with evil powers
Rarely give snakes lunch hours.
Mad with hunger, Nag' devours
Death Eaters and boss.

Oh! No! Oh no, oh no!
Pangs of conscience! Indigestion!
Allergies and throat congestion!
Can't believe I ate my master!
What an unforseen disaster!

What to do? What to do?

Shrugged, took Tums, and went to bed.
