about

Sorry for the spoiler-heavy title! This is a parody of "Mr. Brightside" by the Killers, and it recounts the last few chapters of "Half-Blood Prince". Jace McLain, of Nuclear Bubble Wrap, wrote this song and was gracious enough to let us cover it.

lyrics

I came in my sixth year and I was doin’ just fine
Everything was so great until the very end
It started out with a prince, and then nothing made sense
Who is the Half-Blood Prince? Who is the Half-Blood Prince?

Now I’m goin’ to see Dumbledore and then go
To find some locket thing which has Voldemort’s soul
Then death eaters arrive, running around the place
And then Malfoy’s like, “Die!”, but Snape gets out his wand now
I know what’s going on now
Green light shows
And I just can’t look, he’s killing the
Headmaster, I know

So I see
Snape was working for Voldie
I go chasing him outside
Try spells, but he reads my mind
But I just found out today
Destiny is calling me
I could not believe my eyes
When Dumbledore died

So I’m ticked off at Snape—I'm gonna kill him sometime
No more hangin’ around Hogwarts School at all
I got help from this Prince when potions didn’t make sense
(Snape was the Half-Blood Prince, Snape was the Half-Blood Prince)
Now there’s this prophecy that involves Voldie and me
That says neither can live long while the other can breathes
But he split up his soul into items he picked
And he hid 'em around—it's like a scavenger hunt, now
Easier said than done now, off I go
And I just can’t let Snape get away
My hate for him grows

So I’m stuck
Tryin' find a horcrux
Instead of finishing up school
I'll make my friends will come ‘long too
But I’m gonna make Snape pay
And cause of this prophecy
Voldemort I’ve gotta fight
And Dumbledore died

It's over...
It's over...
It's over...
It's over!
