Lyrics:
Steve:
Oh, oh, oh
Woke up today, lonely and gay --
I always do!
Oh, oh, oh
Searching for someone
That I can meet
Who's not from the street.
I read today's news
The rumors were true
Just like a message from
High above!
Oh, oh, oh
JK Rowling outed
the man
that I've always loved!
Hogwarts Kids:
And it was Dumbledore!
Steve:
He's the wizard that I adore!
All his magic is mystery!
It's his spell that has captured me!
I love you Dumbledore!
And some day when we're ruling Hogwarts,
The world's gonna wake up and see
Dumbledore and me!
Oh, oh, oh,
First I asked "Why?
Would such a butch guy,
Really be gay?"
Oh, oh, oh,
But I checked the site
Leaky calderon
And potter dot com!
And on them they preached
The author made a speech
That this sweet wizard
Is into dudes!
So, oh, oh,
Don't hold me back
'cause today all my dreams will come true!
I love you Dumbledore!
And although I look like a bore!
This fall I went to a magic school!
Although it taught me that kids are
cruel!
I love you Dumbledore!
And some day when we're ruling
Hogwarts,
The world's gonna wake up and see
Dumbledore and me!
Harry Potter:
I know some will say...
Draco:
That this is so wrong!
Hermoine:
But it's with him -
All:
That you belong!
Ron:
So don't let those muggles, mess with your head!
Steve:
I'll never give up
I'd rather drop dead!
Oh, oh, oh,
This is my chance!
To find my romance
And life part-ner!
Oh, oh, oh
Something inside of me
I must prove
So to England I'll move!
Hogwarts Students:
There's no need to go
To find your new beau
We'll use our magic and
The dark arts!
Steve:
Don't make me wait one more moment for our love to start!
Hogwarts Students:
He loves him!
He loves him!
Ab-ra-ca-dab-ra OLD FART!
He loves you Dumbledore!
You're the wizard that he adores!
All your magic is mystery!
And your love will make history!
Steve:
And I promise Dumbledore
That some day when we're
Ruling Hogwarts
The world's gonna wake up and see
Gonna wake up and see!
(Gonna wake up and see!)
Dumbledore and me!
Hogwarts Students:
And one day you will be married!
Steve:
Dumbledore and me!
Hogwarts Students:
Although it won't be legally!
Dumbledore and... ME (STEVE)!!! I Love You Dumbledore: A Music |
