Well. My first OotP parody took me about half an hour (that was Dumbledore's Army). This took me over three hours... ouch :) It was fun though. To the tune of 'American Pie' by Don McLean. You must have heard it, if not the original then surely the abominable Madonna cover of it...
Unfortunately I couldn't include all the details (like Weasley is our King... classic! Or Ron's protective brother act over Ginny getting a boyfriend... Or Gilderoy Lockhart! Hahaha!). But I did attempt to get in all the important things. The order of events is a little skewed in some of the middle verses - it's a summarising thing...
An Ode to Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix
A long time time ago,
I can still remember
How Harry made the kids all smile
I didn't know it would be our fate
That JKR made people wait
For Order of the Phoenix for a while
June 21st made me excited
All Potter fans were so delighted
Good news, there was a new book
We couldn't wait to take a look
I can't remember how I tried
To stay relaxed till it arrived
But I was happy deep inside
The day of HP5 So, my, my, let's see our Harry fly
Let him finally get a girlfriend, make Cho Chang say goodbye
And some guys might just give the new book a try,
Saying, "We all want to see who will die,
We all want to see who will die." Did you see the boy outside
Of the Dursleys' house, trying to hide
Listening to the radio?
And do you believe Dudley's giving knocks
We hear that boy has learned to box
But Dementors make him start to act real slow
Well we thought that Mrs. Figg was glib
Turns out that she's a secret Squib
But the lack of friendly news
It gives Harry the blues
But then he gets to Grimmauld Place
With a hearing that he has to face
Our hearts they beat at quickened pace
The day of HP5 We were singing, my, my, let's see our Harry fly
Let him finally get a girlfriend, make Cho Chang say goodbye
And some guys might just give the new book a try,
Saying, "We all want to see who will die,
We all want to see who will die." Now he luckily gets back to school
But many things are just not cool
With Evil Umbridge teaching there
A Defence Club called the DA
Gives hopes that they might save the day
But Umbridge loves Fudge too much to care
And Harry's having scary dreams
About the Dark Lord's wicked schemes
But these dreams to escape
He must learn from Snape
But then he learns about his Dad
And makes our Snapie very mad
And we're all feeling rather sad
The day of HP5 We started singing, my, my, let's see our Harry fly
Let him finally get a girlfriend, make Cho Chang say goodbye
And some guys might just give the new book a try,
Saying, "We all want to see who will die,
We all want to see who will die." Delores Umbridge – what a dumb bitch
She banned our heroes from their Quidditch
(But the Weasley twins soon gave her hell)
Harry ends up kissing Cho
And every shipper cries out, "No!"
But Harry also ditches her as well
And Dumbledore had played a trick
To save the DA – and then left quick
Now Umbridge is the Head
And we all wish her dead…
The Quibbler tells of Harry's tale
Each student gets it in the mail
Then they take OWLs, hope they won't fail
The day of HP5 And we're singing, my, my, let's see our Harry fly
Let him finally get a girlfriend, make Cho Chang say goodbye
And some guys might just give the new book a try,
Saying, "We all want to see who will die,
We all want to see who will die." A dream of Padfoot leaves Harry scared
For the next fight, they get prepared
Lead Umbridge into the centaurs' grip
They ride the thestrals to the Ministry
Get near to Harry's prophecy
But then ambushing Death Eaters let rip
And Lestrange makes their mission fail
She curses Sirius through the veil
Dumbledore is too late
To save him from his fate
But after Voldemort's attack
To Hogwarts the rest safely get back
And we all mourn for Sirius Black
The day of HP5 And we were singing, my, my, let's see our Harry fly
Let him finally get a girlfriend, make Cho Chang say goodbye
And some guys might just give the new book a try,
Saying, "We all want to see who will die,
We all want to see who will die." Voldemort has made the news
But that's no help to Harry's blues
There's much fighting to be done
And he soon speaks Dumbledore
Who explains all that's gone before
And tells him how the battle must be won
Luna says some kindly words
About the voices that she heard
And dreadful words were spoken
In the prophecy that's broken
And he knows that he must surely try
He must see the Dark Lord die
And we all finish with a sigh
The day of HP5 And we were singing, my, my, barely saw Harry fly
But we saw him get a girlfriend and then Cho said goodbye
We'll certainly give the sixth book a try
But why did Sirius have to die?
Why did Sirius have to die? And we were singing, my, my, barely saw Harry fly
