"You're wrong, Harry," Voldemort spat.
"No I'm not, and you know it. You started the chaos in the world: you can end it."
Voldemort threw his head back and laughed. "Oh Harry! Don't you watch the news? Haven't you learned Muggle history?" He laughed again. "Are you really this naïve?"
Harry's eyes narrowed. "What are you talking about?"
Voldemort's smile spread. "I didn't begin the crap in the world, Harry. I didn't invent murder, I didn't start bad luck. I just work with it. I avoid it. I avoid it by joining it."
Harry shook his head in frustration. "What are you TALKING about?"
Hundreds of Death Eaters began to walk out of the shadows. One held a guitar. One was pushing out a drum set.
"WHAT?"
"Harry, I intend to prove to you that I did not begin the fire. We didn't start the fire."
Harry raised an eyebrow as Lucius Malfoy walked out to the front of the crowd. He stood next to Voldemort, and the two began to sing.

But we tried to fight it...
"You didn't fight it," sneered Harry.
"Oh, but Harry we did. We tried to fight it...but we couldn't win. Of course we couldn't win. And I'm sure you've heard the saying, 'If you can't beat them, join them'. That's what we did: we joined the sorrow and horrible ways of the world." Voldemort smiled again. "And look! We could add whole new verse to the song. All about the wizards who've been killed, all the Muggles and Mudbloods who's been killed...we took away their pain, Harry. Their never doing to have to feel the pain of the world again."
Harry just shook his head. "Whatever," he said.
