The New D

The New D.A. (to the tune of The Green Beret by Ssgt. Barry Sadler)

Cheerful kids           who hex and fly

Creepy kids            who sneak and lie

Kids who don't       mean what they say

All of these              form the new DA

Prefects' badges on their chests

Some of them          are Hogwart's best

Some are not,         I'm afraid to say

But all of them         form the new DA

Trained to take        on the Dark band

Trained in com-       bat with a wand

Trained in sec-        ret day by day

From the seventh floor comes the new DA

Hufflepuffs              and Ravenclaws

And naturally, the Gryffindors

Train themselves      for the coming fray

(No Slytherins         join the new DA)

Put a badge             on my kid's chest

Make her one         of Hogwart's best

But just in case        things go astray

Make her one         of the new DA
