- Author's Note:
- This is my answer to Rainbow_river's Sorting Hat Slash Song Challenge on hxt_lightening. The title comes from the line "A song of love is a sad song" from the song "Hi lily Hi lo".
A Song of Slash is a Gay Song
Oh listen to the song I sing
Come listen, one and all
I sing a song of wondrous things
That will, no doubt, enthral
I take you on a trip through time,
Through a web of lust and lies
If you thought you had heard it all
You're in for a surprise
Way back, ten hundred years ago
A thousand years or more
The greatest wizards of the land
Were Slytherin and Gryffindor
The world had never seen a case
Of such deep and true friendship
You might say in modern lingo
They were attached at the hip
Their friendship grew and grew each day
And one day became much more
When they ended up making passionate love
Right here, on the Great Hall floor
But while Salazar thought it was true love
Godric thought it but a fling
For he loved Bret, the muggleborn
A pretty, dainty thing
When he was told of his mistake
Poor Sal, he was struck dumb
And he, in his rage filled grief
Declared all muggleborn were scum
He took his new hatred so far
He fell out with the other three
And as the people say the rest
Is much repeated history
I hope that I do not offend
For I do not mean to squick
If so I would have told the tale
Of Peevsey and Sir Nick
The Baron got all bloody
From a fast and furious fight
That lasted all the whole day through
And half the summer night
He fought to defend the honour
Of his beloved, a young boy
Whose beauty was so great he was
Called a male Helen of Troy
A duel to the death they said
And to the death it was
For of the Baron all that was left
Was a bloodstained carcass
The fair young boy, he wept
To see his lover slain
So intense was his misery
It drove him quite insane
And where, you ask, is the youth
Who suffered this sad plight?
Why you can see him on the seventh floor -
Sir Cadogan, the worthy knight
We come now to more modern times
And tales of people who still live
I have many more tales to tell
I've so much more to give
Dumbledore, the headmaster
The man we love so well
Was once upon a time in love
With Nicholas Flamel
Of course that was before Dippet
Whose face was red and bald
And lets not forget the ill fated fling
That he had with Grindewald
The beloved Professor Flitwick
So tiny and so small.
How does he carry on with Hagrid
Who is so vast and tall?
If we are talking of professors
We must not leave out Snape
Ah yes, he too has loved and lost
There is no need to gape
For many years he carried a torch
For his rival Sirius Black
But now alas the man is dead
And is never coming back
His love never was returned,
For the fugitive famous
Was involved with one of his best friends
The sweet werewolf Remus
And our caretaker, Argus Filtch
So bitter and so broody
Was once enamoured of the man
Known as Mad-Eye Moody
The Minister of Magic, Cornelius Fudge.
Be sure I can avouch
For the lurid episode of desire
He had with Barty Crouch.
Lets skip ahead, to newer times
And newer generations
To hear about more happy things
And times of celebrations
The rivalry of the two households
Of Weasley and Malfoy
Have recently come to an and
Is that not a cause for joy?
The nuptials of Ron and Draco
Did these happy changes bring
But whether their parents will come round
Is another thing
And while we speak of Weasley's
I mention Percy as I should
For he's happily in a threesome
With Quidditch stars Flint and Wood.
And now as I am almost done
I sing of the last but not the least
Without which we all would not be here
At this most sumptuous feast
You all must know of Voldemort
That vile and vicious rotter
And of course The Boy Who Lived
The noble Harry Potter
The two once met in battle
To end it once and all
And Potter cast a deadly curse
And Voldemort did fall
But what was this? Where he did fall
A young boy did arise
The curse had not killed Voldemort
Potter saw to his surprise
But turned him back to who he was
Three score years or so
The boy, Tommy Riddle
Who he had been so long ago
Everyone deserves a second chance
Even one so cruel
But e'en as Potter said this
Others called him a fool
But the golden boy took it on himself
To remould his adversary
And show him how to love the world
And not to be contrary
And so in the course of time
The prophesy came true
Potter did kill Voldemort
And made somebody new.
And while young Thomas found himself
He found Harry too,
And in each other they did find
A love so pure and true
The war was over for ever more
To never start again
And no more blood and tears and sweat
And no more hurt and pain
Last year our happy pair were wed
Among much bliss and laughter
And I'm sure you all will hope that they
Live happily ever after
So now my song comes to an end
Please all remember that
What ever goes on in the wizarding world
Is known by the Sorting Hat
No matter how well you cover your tracks
I'm sure you will agree
You can hide a secret from everyone
Of course except from me
What song will I sing next year?
Why nobody can tell
So that's something to think about
As I bid you all farewell.
End
