Dark Side of the Moony
A Remus J. Lupin musical by loki based on The Dark Side of the Moon by Pink Floyd
Don't Bite Me/Grief
Based on Speak To Me/Breathe
During the first part of the song, one can hear biting noises, Greyback barking and young Remus Lupin yelling before being brought back home by a desperate Mr Lupin.
MR. LUPIN
Grief, Grief for my son
Shouldn't have left him alone.
I offended Greyback,
This is how this monster strikes back.
Bitten by nasty werewolves,
There's no chance his wounds will close
Will my young Remus study ?
Maybe if we can count on Dumby.
Die, Greyback, die
Hear the curses in my sighs
Poor Remus didn't deserve that bite
At full moon he will become a cause of fright
DUMBLEDORE
Don't worry, I will help him
In a shack we will put him
A Willow planted nearby
Will make Remus as harmless as a fly.
Not So Fun
Based on On The Run
Instrumental. Moony's screams as he transforms into a werewolf can be heard in the background instead of the original laughing.
Moon Time
Based on Time
Hogwarts' bell rings, dismissing the students
THE CHOIR:
Four boys of Gryff are hanging around since their first year
One is named James, and he seems to have no fear
Sirius Black is the group's playboy, and Pettigrew
Is a moon-faced boy who admires them because they're cool.
What they don't know is that Remus Lupin transforms every month
At full moon, goes in the Shack, and he becomes a werewolf
He is so terrified of what might happen the day
When his friends learn his nature, they will dump him for sure
solo
And he hides, and he hides from his three best friends, but they find out
Instead of dumping him they try to help him out
Become Animagi during their fifth year and from now on
During full moons, Moony's no longer alone.
Every night has become funner, as when in the Shack they're four
When he transforms at twilight, he's not a threat any more
Hanging out in the Hogwarts' park, and the Forbidden Forest
They call themselves the four Marauders, for Remus those days are the best.
JAMES, PETER & SIRIUS
Shack, Shrieking Shack
We like to go there at moon time
And when Remus has become Moony
We come to pick him up behind his tree
Wormtail first handles the root,
Followed by Prongs and Padfoot
Sneaking under the Willow,
Ain't we the Hogwarts' desperados?
The Grey Wolf in the Shack
Based on The Great Gig in the Sky
Instrumental. During the whole song, the high-pitched screams of a werewolf can be heard, more desperate and painful than ever.
Mooney
Based on Money
Instead of a coins nose, one can hear the stomping of an impatient stag and the barking of a black hound (and maybe a squeaking rodent too?) in the background.
JAMES, PETER & SIRIUS
Moony, get away.
Your pals come to check if you're okay.
Moony, no hassle.
Just come and we'll explore the castle.
Padfoot, Wormtail, Prongs, come on, Moony
It's full moon and time to party.
Moony, in the Shack.
It's all right, James' here and so is Black.
Moony, we're a hit.
A dog, a stag and a rat named Pete.
We are heading to Hogsmeade where Lily Evans
Chats and Prongs is having a glance.
Moony, what a night.
We four are marauding well out of sight.
Moony, did you see ?
Here comes Snape and he's looking wary
I know you don't want us to tease him
But let's see if he fears the Grim…
The Grim… The Grim…
Us and Snape
Based on Us and Them
SIRIUS:
Us, and Snape
That Slytherin guy is so uptight and lame.
He, hates us
If he had friends, perhaps he wouldn't make a fuss
Right from the start
Snivellus was never much apart,
He wants us expelled and he tries to spy
On us just like a mean bat.
JAMES:
Snape, is mad
No one knows why that lad… dresses so bad.
Look, Evans
Check out his nose, his dirty underpants
Hanged in the air, Snivellus wouldn't dare
To call Evans a Mudblood
I let him go, but he didn't mellow
He's such a disgusting bud
Buy, new pants
You are friendless, and jealous of all my talents.
Get, get out
You will never manage to turn us out, and out…
Out of my way, I'll hex you if you stay
One more second in my path.
Snog your cauldron, go out with a potion
We'll have both peace and a laugh.

Based on Any Colour You Like
Instrumental : during which a delightful Remus meets his animagi friends and visit Hogwarts' grounds.
Snape Damaged
Based on Brain Damage
THE CHOIR:
The werewolf is in the shack
The werewolf is in the shack
Here comes a man, he was informed by Black
Doesn't know he's risking an attack.
The werewolf is transforming
The werewolf is transforming
Snape finds the passage, he's already smirking
Doesn't know Lupin is awaiting.
If Potter hadn't come to stop his enemy
The wolf would have shown him no mercy
And though he has been saved, Snape saw it quite clearly
He's discovered the dark side of the Moony
The werewolf is R. Lupin
The werewolf is R. Lupin
Black's joke was mean, could have been killed,
Snape has to take it out on him.
He has a debt, he owes Potter his life
He's never been more upset in his life.
Behind his greasy nose Snape is resentful
He can't believe he has been fooled
And if someday he can reveal it properly,
He's discovered the dark side of the Moony.
The Marauders
Based on Eclipse
Here is Padfoot
Here is Wormtail
Here is Remus
Here is James.
Here is Lily
Who married Potter
And here they come
The Marauders.
Here is Voldy
Don't join him, Pete
Don't betray them,
You've always lacked wits.
Lily and James
Unexpectedly
Made Pete the Keeper
Instead of Moony.
And when came July
At Godric's Hollow
Wormtail sold Lily
To Lord Voldemort
Voldemort came
James, Lily slain
But their son survived
And Padfoot in jail, Pettigrew went hiding
And the only remainder was Moony.
