Short Scar, Long Broomstick
a parody of "Short Skirt, Long Jacket", by Cake
written by Shay Caron
based on the Harry Potter series, which belongs to J.K. Rowling

Note: Being a resolute member of the HMS Orange Crush, I tend to imagine this song as being sung by Ginny Weasley, but feel free to think of it as whichever Harry-related ship you prefer.

I want a boy with a heart that's enormous
I want a boy who bends the rules
I want a boy with taped-up specs
And eyes that glow like emerald jewels

I want a boy with the right incantations
Who is fast and nimble and knows how to sneak
He's putting on his glasses
He's messing with his hair
He's soaring 'round the Quidditch pitch and he can sure Seek

I want a boy with a short scar and a long broomstick

I want a boy who's bad at Potions
I want a boy who's good at Charms
I want a boy with simply insane generosity
Who uses his holly wand to smack evil down

With his old map that charts out Hogwarts
And a cloak that turns him invisible
He is fast, nimble and knows how to sneak
He is soaring 'round the Quidditch pitch and he can sure Seek

I want a boy with a short scar and a long, long broomstick

I want a boy with a long streak of kindness
I want a boy who has a strong will
In common room we will meet accidentally
We'll start to talk when he borrows my quill

He wants to hide from the paper reporters
He wants to just live a normal life
He's the Boy Who Lived -- that's not why I want him
To me he's just Harry, and I won't stop 'til I've got him

I want a boy with a short scar and a long broomstick
