A day or more ago when I was stupidly sewn
There lived four wizards who weren't well know
Whose names, well I told they weren't known
Brainless Gryffindor, from wild bore,
Forgetful Ravenclaw, like longbottom from mopbottom hall.
Stupid Hufflepuff, quite like ron from education needed.
And Selfish Slytherin, from fairies point.
They shared a wish, a hope, a dream
To dis educate young muggles and to educate young witches and wizards.
Thus Hogwarts began
Now each of these four founders
Formed their own house, for each did
Value different virtues
In ones they had to teach.
By Gryffindor, the brainless were prized far beyond the rest;
For Ravenclaw , the most forgetable ones would always forget the rest;
For Hufflepuff, stupid sorcerers were most unworthy of admission;
And Slytherin, loved those of selfish ambition.
While still alive they did divide their favorite from the stupid.
Yet how to pick the worthy ones when they were dead and gone?
'Twas brainless who found the way,
Whipped me off forgetables head
The founders put some brains in me so I could choose instead!
Now slip me sung over your nose.
I've been wrong yess I have ,
I'll have a look up your nose, I'll smell then tell where you belong!!
