about

Our second Taylor Swift spoof! It's all about the difficulties that Hermione faced in dealing with Rita Skeeter. This is one of the four new parodies for the album!

lyrics

I remember what you wrote up the first time
Dragging Harry’s name through the mud and I
Can't believe the measures that you took
When you invaded his personal space

You interrogated him about his life, saying,
“Do you miss your mom and do you cry at night”
When he spoke you didn’t even try to write
The words he was saying
I really don’t trust trust

You
Yoooou’re using quick quote quills again
But ooh, this time I’ll telling you, I’m telling you

She’s a snitchy witchy liar and a gossip writer
She’s a sneaky wicked weasel, I hope she’s fired
The Daily Prophet’s gossip and lack of news is sickening
And we may never, ever, ever want to read the paper

Now you’re making Ron and Harry fight
Yet the info that you’re printing’s never right
And these people seem to love your gossip game
But I’ll give you heck if it’s me you wanna defame

Ooh, you're spreading filthy lies again
But ooh, this time I’ll telling you, I’m telling you

She’s an evil little weasel and a gossip writer
She’s a sneaky wicked woman, I hope she’s fired
She’s gonna talk to Cedric, talk to Victor, talk to Fleur
But she will never, ever, ever write another letter

You thought I was a Muggle when you came here
Wrote those nasty things somehow
Your column relies on what you hear
But you'll be writing for The Quibbler now

I'm !
Not!
A Muggle, muggle, muggle!

I'm !
Not!
A Muggle, muggle, muggle!

I will never ever read her, cuz she’s Rita Skeeter
She’s a snitchy witchy liar and a gossip writer
She can spy on Harry or get the inside scoop on Krum
But I am clever, clever, clever
And she’s a beetle
