Harry Potter, as written by Gilbert and Sullivan
My Eyes Are Finally Open
(ttto: My Eyes Are Fully Open, from Gilbert and Sullivan's Ruddigore)
Harry Potter:
My eyes are finally open to this awful situation
I must go tonight to Voldemort and face annihilation
If my friends learned what I'm planning they would say I've lost my senses
(At least Hermione, for poor old Ron severely dense is)
Now, I do not want to perish in an act of awful slaughter,
I would rather live my life beside the red-haired Weasley daughter,
But although I am as gone as any goose that's on a platter,
I will walk into the woods because it really doesn't matter!
Hermione:
'Cause it really doesn't matter...
Ron:
'Cause it really doesn't matter...
Trio:
'Cause it really doesn't matter, cause it really doesn't matter,
Cause it really doesn't matter, matter, matter, matter, matter!
Hermione:
Although they say I'm bookish and in fact I'm rather nerdy
And when I try to help my friends they say I'm rather wordy
I would say that going off into the woods is rather silly
And the thought of facing off with Riddle makes me feel all chilly
Since the war is not yet lost and all our friends are in the fight there
Why go off and just be killed to all the Death Eaters' delight there?
Of course your death would mean that all our hopes would truly shatter,
But I'll keep my big mouth shut for my opinion doesn't matter!
Harry:
Her opinion doesn't matter,
Ron:
Her opinion doesn't matter,
Trio:
Her opinion doesn't matter, her opinion doesn't matter,
Her opinion doesn't matter, matter, matter, matter, matter!
Ron:
Since we first met upon the train you've been just like my brother,
I would tell you all my secrets when I wouldn't tell another,
Although we've had our rifts you've always been the friend I'd lie for,
And the friend that I would steal for, and the friend that I would die for.
And I hope to stand there smiling as you wed my little sister
(At least if all the Dark Lord's evil curses have still missed her)
And although our hopes for winning have now frayed into a tatter,
I would like to stop you now but my opinion doesn't matter!
Harry:
His opinion doesn't matter,
Hermione:
His opinion doesn't matter,
Trio:
His opinion doesn't matter, his opinion doesn't matter,
His opinion doesn't matter, matter, matter, matter, matter!
