How do you solve a problem like James Potter? (Lily's thoughts) [to the tune of:
How do you solve a problem like Maria? (The sisters of the abbey) [The Sound of Music]
(If you dont understand the song beat
or dont know it play (kareoke tune) of the song! :D)
(Lily yelling at Sirius, Remus, & Peter
and she is mad that he keeps bugging Snape AGAIN!)
Verse 1:
Lily (Looking at Remus):
He climbed a tree, and [Whomping Willow-] it broke his knee!
Sirius (smirking) :Cuz, He doesn't have a care!
Lily (rolling eyes): He runs on his way to class!
Remus (Watching Lily): And chases Snape down the stairs!
Lily (glaring at Sirius) : And inside his robes pocket, he
has a golden snitch hidden there!
Remus (sarcastically shocked): I even heard him fighting
(Snape) in the library!
Verse 2:
Lily (looking at Remus):He always messes up in potions-
Remus (rolling his eyes):-But his determinations real!
Lily (shouting): He's always late for everything!
Remus & Sirius (smiling): Except for quidditch and meals!
Lily (smiling with arms crossed) :I hate to have to say it!
But I very firmly feel,
Potter's not an asset to wizardry!
Peter (overly giddy) :I wanna say something on Jame's 'half!
Lily (eyebrow raised):Why?
[Lily, Remus, & Sirius wait for a answer...]
Peter: Because, James' makes me laugh!
(Peter laughs [and so do Remus and Sirius] & Lily glares at
them thinking about Sev's Potter problem out loud.)
Chorus:
Lily (looking at the willow) :HOW do you solve a problem like James Potter?
HOW do you catch a Bludger & pin it down?
Peter: HOW do you find a word that means James Potter?
Lily:A toerag,
Peter, & Sirius(laughing STILL):A funny guy!
Remus(annoyed):A ruddy clown!
(Sirius glares at Remus & Lily)
Remus(still annoyed): MANY a thing you know you'd like to tell him.
Lily: MANY a thing he ought to understand!
Remus & Lily (singing) :But, HOW do you make him stay-
(Remus & Lily are singing different things at the same time)
(1)Lily: And stop tormenting Sev (Snape) all day?
(2)Remus: And listen to what you always say!
Sirius(laughing) HOW do you keep a broom upon the ground?
Lily: HOW do you solve a problem like James Potter?
Lily & Remus: HOW do you catch a snitch in your hand...?
Verse 3::
Remus(looking at Lily): When I'm with him, I feel confused-
Sirius (glaring at Remus & Lily)-your both out of my mind-
Remus (laughing):-and choas insues!
And I sometimes dont understand whats going on.
Lily (laughing): He'd outbugger any bug! Drive a mouse from (under a) rug!
Remus (laughing with Lily): He could throw the whomping willow out of whomp!
Sirius: He is funny!
Lily: He's too wild!
Remus: He's insane!
Peter:But he's just-
Sirius (glaring a Peter): -he's NOT a child!
Lily:He's a jerk!
Sirius & Peter (glaring at Lily) :He is NOT!
Remus (laughing) :He's a joy!
Lily (staring at Remus) :He's a WHAT?
(Sirius & Peter laughing again)
Remus (laughing):He's a boy!
(Chorus repeat!)
Lily (looking at the willow AGAIN) :HOW do you solve a problem like James Potter?
HOW do you catch a Bludger & pin it down?
Peter: HOW do you find a word that means James Potter?
Lily:A toerag,
Peter, & Sirius(laughing STILL):A funny guy!
Remus(annoyed):A ruddy clown!
(Sirius glares at Remus & Lily)
Remus(still annoyed): MANY a thing you know you'd like to tell him.
Lily: MANY a thing he ought to understand!
Remus & Lily (singing) :But, HOW do you make him stay-
(Remus & Lily are singing different things at the same time)
(1)Lily: And stop tormenting Sev (Snape) all day?
(2)Remus: And listen to what you always say!
Sirius(laughing) HOW do you keep a broom upon the ground?
Lily: HOW do you solve a problem like James Potter?
[Lily sees Severus running and runs and gives him a hug.]
[James Potter runs at Snape but runs away screaming as Lily throws hexes at him!]
[Severus & Remus laughing as Sirius & Peter run after James!]
Lily (singing quietly): HOW do you catch a snitch...in...your...hand...?
