Scene 9:
**Harry prepares to enter the 'Chamber of Secrets'**
I AM GRYIFFINDOR (Sung to the tune of 'I Have Confidence')
What will this beast be like?
I wonder
How will I face him down?
I wonder
It should be so exciting
To be always the hero, the key
I wish I could feel really brave now
Oh, what's the matter with me?
I've never longed for adventure
Just wanted love, a Mum and Dad
Why must I be in every adventure?
And, why am I so sad?
A Chamber that holds a Secret
What's so fearsome about that?
Oh, I must keep my wits quite about me
If I don't, this could really turn bad
I must think of the girl I am saving
It's for Ginny; I'll never turn back
Headmaster, please help me out now
And I hope that you'll be proud now
Show you I'm worthy
And while I show you
I"ll show me
So, let the Heir just try and stop me
I will beat him at his game
I'm a Gryffindor, it's more than just a name
I know I can win, I am Gryffindor within!
Somehow I will defeat him
I will be brave and fine
And I'll get Ginny (Yes, I will Ron)
We will escape from here
And mind me, with each spell I am more certain
Dumbledore will help me out
I am Gryffindor, and let there be no doubt
You'll have to agree, there is Gryffindor in me
I'm a Gryffindor in spirit
I'm a Gryffindor in soul
I'm a Gryffindor, success will be my goal
And so you see, I am Gryffindor indeed
Gryffindors never shirk now
Gryffindors never stop
Gryffindors always go to work now
When there's a task-We hop!
I tell you, I am ready for the Heir now
I am ready for that beast
I'm a Gryffindor and Godric surely knows
**Stops, seeing Ginny lying deadly still on the floor of the chamber**
(Oh, help!)
**Steals himself to continue**
I'm a Gryffindor, and Godric surely knows
And you will see, there is Gryffindor in me!
**Within the 'Chamber of Secrets', Harry meets Tom Riddle, who explains who he is**
SOMETHING BAD (Sung to the tune of 'Something Good')
(Riddle)
You see I had a wretched childhood
In fact I had a horrible youth
But something in my wretched, horrible past
Prepared me for my moment of truth
And here you are, standing there, oh so brave
Just like I knew you would
You'd never turn down such a chance now
You always do something good
Nothing comes from goodness
Goodness knows, that's sad
And one day in my youth or childhood
I knew I could be something bad
(Harry)
I also had a wretched childhood
An orphan, all alone, like you
But somehow I managed to stay good
(Riddle)
And why do you think that's true?
(Harry)
And why are you standing there, hating me?
As if you know me, too
(Riddle)
Oh, Harry, I think you would know now
Someday I will be "You-know-who!"
(Riddle and Harry)
We are always meeting
And it's oh, so sad
(Riddle)
Harry, I think that you-
(Harry)
Will die now?
(Riddle)
It's time to do something……
(Riddle and Harry)
Something bad
