I am not J.K.Rowling or anyone who has sung this song (and there are tons you, so I'm not going to list you all . . . )
Guess what? I heard this song on the radio the other day, and guess what words I sang?
The House of Toujours Pur (to the tune of "The House of the Rising Sun")-- 5
Narrator: Sirius Black
Setting: 5th book
There is a house in Grimmauld Place
In which live the "Toujours Pur,"
And though in ruins, it remains to me
A reminder of the way the old times were.
The only thing I was ever taught
Was that blood was only good pure.
I didn't believe a word of it;
I wasn't meant to be "Toujours Pur."
I resisted heartily
But my brother did not do the same.
So it was I who was the failure;
The stain on the family name.
My mother did disown me
But leaving was my choice.
I couldn't stay a minute more
In that place where I had no voice.
If I had listened to what mother said,
I'd have turned out evil, I say.
Thank Merlin I got out of there;
I'm free and on my way.
Oh my brother, oh my cousins:
Of my mother, don't listen to her!
She'll only bring you misery
In the House of Toujours Pur.
Now, times they are a-changin';
The dark ways have come back.
Ironically, the Order's base
Is in the Noble House of Black.
Going back to Grimmauld Place;
Things feel as the way they were.
I'm stuck back here in my old Hell:
The House of Toujours Pur.
