Kareoke Night II: Take Two

By Nari-chan

ABOUT THIS SONG: Okay, Crookshanks will be singing "Everybody wants to be a cat" in this chapter. I plan on using many Disney songs through this story, so be warned.

DISCLAIMER: The plot of this story is mine. As are all Silly Songs. All the characters belong to J.K Rowling, I'm simply borrowing them for a sequel. All songs belong to their respective artist and record companies.



Suddenly the doors to the great Hall burst open, and Crookshanks walked in. "Actually I can talk! I just choose not to 90 percent of the time!"

Everyone gaped and Crookshanks ran up to the stage and Dumbledore altered the microphone so he could reach it.

The music started up and Crookshanks began to sing.

/Ev'rybody wants to be a cat

Because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at

Ev'rybody pickin' up on the feline beat

'Cause ev'rything else is obsolete/



The Ravenclaw students had began to clap to the music, The other houses were still surprised.



/Beware of a square

when he offers to share

his milk to sip

If it hasn't been tried

I suggest you provide

Your own cat nip/



The Hufflepuff students jumped to their feet and began to jog around the hall, singing back up lyrics.

Ron turned to look at the Gryffindors. "80% of the Hufflepuffs are Half- blood or Muggle-born…"

"Oh…" Came the reply.



/I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing

But still a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing

A purr between two furry friends may be old hat

But ev'rybody wants to be a cat/



The Slytherins, who had nothing against animals, began to square-dance around the great hall. Draco was the only

Slytherin in his seat…even Goyle and Crabbe had began to dance.



/Come on, scat cat, turn me on

I'll take my horn and my beat tone

Then blow a little soul into the tune

Let's take it to another key

Modulate, then wait for me

I'll take a few ad libs and pretty soon

The other cats will all commence

Congregating on the fence

Beneath the alley's only light

Where ev'rynight is out of sight/



The Gryffindors, who had recovered from the surprise, joined in with one of the other three groups. Only two people still sitting at the Gryffindor table were Hermione and Harry. Hermione was still in shock, and Harry was staring at something…or someone.



/Ev'rybody wants to be a cat

Because a cat's the only cat who knows where it's at

Ev'rybody pickin' up on the feline beat

'Cause ev'rything else is obsolete/



/Beware of a square

when he offers to share

his milk to sip

If it hasn't been tried

I suggest you provide

Your own cat nip/



People were still dancing, even some of the teachers had taken to dancing. Remus, Minerva, and Severus were the only ones still sitting, McGonagall looked ticked beyond belief, Remus was studying Harry, then what he was looking at. Severus was scowling at his students.



/I've heard some corny birds who tried to sing

But still a cat's the only cat who knows how to swing

A purr between two furry friends may be old hat

But ev'rybody wants to be a cat/



The song ended and Crookshanks jumped up and down—the equivalent to a bow—everyone cheered and whistled for him.

Dumbledore stood to announce the next act. Crookshanks slithered over to Hermione and crawled on her lap. "Our next act is…Vincent Crabbe and Gregory Goyle!"

Crabbe and Goyle are up next…if anyone has any good songs for them to sing, feel free to tell me the name of the song, and the artist who sings it. Or you can send the lyrics.
