Angry Wizard Polka a parody of "Angry White Boy Polka" by "Weird Al" Yankovic written by Shay Caron based on the Harry Potter series, which belongs to J.K. Rowling second in the Do You Believe In Polka? series ------------------ [Scene: a stage suitable for the presentation of a play, with two sets of curtains -- the left Gryffindor-red, the right Slytherin-green -- both drawn shut. Mad-Eye Moody steps out to the center of the stage and faces the audience (i.e., you).] MOODY: I have been asked to inform the audience that tonight's presentation is a medley of scenes from the recently-released book, "Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix," not necessarily in any intelligible order. If you have not yet read that book, what are you doing reading this, you idiot? You've got to be careful of spoilers! CONSTANT VIGILANCE, I tell you! [pause] Thank you. [Moody walks off-stage. The lights dim.] [We begin on the left side, where the curtains open on our hero, Harry Potter, sitting in an empty classroom with hellspawn -- er, I mean, Hogwarts teacher Dolores Umbridge. Harry writes "I will not tell lies" on a sheet of parchment and winces as the words cut themselves into the back of his hand.] [Last Resort/Papa Roach] HARRY: Cut my flesh into ribbons This is my detention Suffer desanguination Don't give a -- UMBRIDGE: HEM! HARRY: -- for her bloody fixation This is my detention But I'll never give up, never give in Tell the truth, I'm not lettin' her win I don't want fame, I never lied It was no accident that Ced died Nothing's alright, nothing is fine 'Cause Voldemort's alive now [The red curtains close. On the right side of the stage, the green curtains open on the Gryffindor fifth-year male dorm, where Harry has just woken up from a nasty dream.] [Chop Suey!/System Of A Down] HARRY: Wake up! RON: Wake up? HARRY: Suddenly I dreamt an evil snake up Started chewin' Mr. Weasley's leg up RON: Started chewin' Mr. Weasley's leg up?! HARRY: Now I really think that he's in danger MCGONAGALL: [rushes in] Here you go, create another fable HARRY: (Get Dumbledore!) MCGONAGALL: Suddenly you dreamt an evil snake up? HARRY: (Get Dumbledore!) MCGONAGALL: Started chewin' Mr. Weasley's leg up? HARRY: (Get Dumbledore!) MCGONAGALL: Now you really think that he's in danger? HARRY: (Get Dumbledore!) I don't think you trust In the prophetic dream I had Ron's dad just doesn't deserve to die, die, die D-d-die die die die die Hey! [Move to the left stage. Fred and George Weasley, prankster twins extraordinaire, fly on-stage on their broomsticks (a chain and iron peg still hang from George's broom). As they sing, they toss various Wheezes to the audience.] [Get Free/The Vines] FRED: We're gonna get free We're gonna get free We're gonna get free TWINS: Ride out of the school GEORGE: Our sinister scheme Our sinister scheme Our sinister scheme TWINS: Play her for the fool (Prank here, prank here, prank here) FRED: Some puking candy for ya TWINS: (Prank here, prank here, prank here) GEORGE: Big swamp around the corner TWINS: (Prank here, prank here, prank here) FRED: Explosions and disaster TWINS: (Prank here, prank here, prank here) GEORGE: [salutes] Our parting gift, Headmaster [Fred and George soar away and we look to the right side. Harry, Ron, Hermione, and Ginny are sitting in Ron's room at Grimmauld Place. Harry is facing away from the others, but Ginny stands close to him.] [Hate To Say I Told You So/The Hives] GINNY: Do what you want, but you can't turn away from us forever We can help you to cope with possession or whatever Hate to snap you out of this (or not) Got to snap you out of this [she smacks Harry upside the head] Get over it, get a clue 'Cause I've suffered too [The lights dim and a spotlight lands on Harry, who faces the audience and sings.] [Fell in Love With a Girl/The White Stripes] HARRY: Fell in love with a girl I thought she liked me too, I was so elated Cedric's still on her mind Yeah, sometimes these feelings make me irritated Cho's left me for that Corner dude Yeah, well, nothing good seems to come from dating I'm not looking for someone new But I've got a funny feeling someone's been waiting, now [Ginny rolls her eyes] [A sign appears that reads "Intermission." Both sets of curtains close. Sirius Black and Remus Lupin slowly walk on-stage, snapping their fingers to the beat.] [Last Nite/The Strokes] SIRIUS: Last night He said "Oh, Padfoot, don't you feel so down 'Cause you're stuck in here Oh, don't feel left out" So I LUPIN: (What'd you do?) SIRIUS: Well, I turned around LUPIN: (Right around) SIRIUS: "Oh, Moony, gonna be alright" LUPIN: (Gonna be alright) SIRIUS: It was a great big lie LUPIN: (Big old lie) SIRIUS: 'Cause I left that night Yeah [As Sirius and Lupin retreat, Luna and Neville step out from behind the green curtain. Luna looks vaguely at an issue of The Quibbler; Neville looks confused.] [Down with the Sickness/Disturbed] LUNA: Ooh ah ah ah ah! [She somehow manages to make this sound dreamy.] NEVILLE: "Ooh ah ah ah ah"? LUNA: Ever hear of the Crumple-Horned Snorkack Look out for nargle-infested berries You know Sirius Black was a singer All this stuff is really fascinating to me NEVILLE: I don't believe in Crumple-Horned Snorkacks I really don't think that mistletoe's full of nargles I might believe that Black is a singer All that stuff you read sounds kinda silly to me [The red curtain opens to show the Department of Mysteries, with all the Death Eaters clustered on one end and the Order of the Phoenix at the other end.] [Renegades of Funk/Rage Against The Machine] DEATH EATERS: We're the secret evil guys, we're the secret evil guys ORDER OF THE PHOENIX: We're the secret hero guys, we're the secret hero guys [Both groups freeze as the green curtain opens. Hermione and Ron stand there, Hermione wearing several of her homemade hats, Ron in his Quidditch outfit, broom at his side.] [My Way/Limp Bizkit] HERMIONE: This time got a dresser full of clothes This time before anyone knows S.P.E.W. is here to free elves Yeah, free elves Free elves from enslavement This time gonna make a thousand hats How you slave drivers feel about that? S.P.E.W. is here to free elves Yeah, free elves [ding, ding] From enslavement [Outside/Staind] RON: But now I'm the Keeper I'm panicking I've been so awful Can't touch the Quaffle But if I could shape up We could still win I'll guard those rings yet I'll be a King yet [Return to the scene on the left.] [Bawitdaba/Kid Rock] DEATH EATERS: Expelliarmus Crucio Colloportus Stupefy Protego Avada Kedavra ORDER OF THE PHOENIX: Expelliarmus Crucio Colloportus Stupefy Protego Avada Kedavra [Both curtains close and the members of Dumbledore's Army walk onto the stage.] [Youth of the Nation/P.O.D.] DUMBLEDORE'S ARMY: We are, we are Dumbledore's Army We are, we are Dumbledore's Army We are, we are Dumbledore's Army We're Dumbledore's bloody Army! Yeah! [A sign appears and displays the words "Big Finish" before bursting into fireworks. Everyone steps out from behind both curtains, Harry in the front holding his wand like a microphone.] [The Real Slim Shady/Eminem] HARRY: I'm H Potter, yes, I'm the real Potter All you other H Potters are nothing but rotters So won't the real H Potter please stand up Please stand up, please stand up 'Cause I'm H Potter, yes, I'm the real Potter All you other H Potters are nothing but rotters So won't the real H Potter please, please Please stand up H Potter, won't you please stand up?
