about
The song 'Hogwarts State of Mind' is a parody of Jay-Z's "Empire State of Mind" about the Harry Potter universe and Harry's battle with Lord Voldemort.
lyrics
Yeah, I'm up at Hogwarts,
used to be at Privet Drive
Got blasted by Voldemort
for some reason I survived
They call me “The Boy Who Lived”
And I got this scar right here,
Tippin back a Butterbeer,
Yeah, they love me everywhere.
I got Ron and Hermionie
And all my Gryffindors in Dumbledore's Army
Took me down a passageway
usin the Marauder’s Map
Commin up on Hogsmeade
I'll be workin harder
than a house elf
makin pastries
Flyin down the Quidditch field
Nimbus Two Thousand
Try to be quiet
somehow Snape's always around
Headin out to Hagrid's
Home of that half giant
Used to have a Hippogriff
Buckbeak caused a riot
Say what up to Neville
messin with some plants there
Passin Draco Malfoy,
Crabbe and Goyle givin quite a glare
Now I've got an army
I created the DA
Tell by my wizard skills
that I'm most definitely from
Hogwarts
Acceptance letter at age eleven,
You'll learn to use magic
Now you're at Hogwarts
The feasts will make you feel brand new
Let wizards inspire you
Let's hear it for Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hogwarts
Catch me sneakin outside
to the Whomping Willow tree
No you wont
I have my dad's cloak of invisibility.
You should know I talk to snakes
but I ain't a Slytherin
but I got a bunch of green
walkin by with chagrin
Come on down to Hogsmeade
a Butterbeer is what you need
The stairways move around a lot
but watch out for Peeves
Phoenix wand, holly wand, dragon wand
he's got a bit
for Ollivander your new wand
has gotta be a perfect fit
Trackin down a Horcrux
Don't believe the Ministry
Voldemort is back
and he'll fulfill the prophecy.
Me I gotta wand special
and it's got a twin
Voldemort has the other one,
I've really got to win
Three Broomsticks pub,
Godric's Hollow
Me, Ron and Hermionie
have to find the Deathly Hallows
Zonko's Joke Shop,
close-by to the Shrieking Shack
long live the Burrow
Don't forget your OWL examinations at
Hogwarts
Acceptance letter at age eleven,
You'll learn to use magic
Now you're at Hogwarts
The feasts will make you feel brand new
Let wizards inspire you
Let's hear it for Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hogwarts
Our wands in the air for wizardry
All magic, no e-lec-tri-city
Nowhere else like it 'cause it's so rare
Raise your wands into the air,
everybody say LU-UMOS
