about

This track was the second song The 8th Horcrux ever wrote. It is based on Harry Potter and the Half-Blood Prince and Harry's new-found potion skillz. Due to the fact that we didn't know what we were doing at that point, The 8th Horcrux re-recorded "Potions Wizard" as a bonus track for "Noize from the Cupboard", and later remixed it with drums for this album.

lyrics

Ever since I was at Hogwarts
I've sucked at potions class
But under Slughorn's guidance
I though that might pass
But then one day while browsing
Through a book of potion spells
I met this Half-Blood Prince bloke
And he knows his potions spells

With Severus Snape as teacher
I couldn't brew a thing
But now I'm the Cauldron Master
With the Prince under my wing
All the class is jealous
At Potions I excel
This Half-Blood Prince bloke
Sure knows his potion spells

He's a potion wizard
There's got to be a twist
A potion wizard
Have you seen his spell list?

How do you think he does it?
What makes him so good?

Hermione's really jealous
She doesn't trust my book
I know it's just her anger
'Cuz I'm the better cook
She's said she'll turn me in
I hope she doesn't tell
This Half-Blood Prince bloke
Sure knows his potion spells

I guess it's not me
I'm just as bad as they get
It's this Half-Blood Prince
He's Good... I'll admit

While flipping through my textbook
I spied a curious phrase
'Sectumsempra' beckoned
It set my wand ablaze
I tested it on Malfoy
I swear it gave him Hell
Sheesh, This Half-Blood Prince bloke
Sure knows his magic spells
