Different As Can Be
A Very Potter Musical Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
You won't sleep on your tummy
Voldemort:
You won't sleep on your back
Both:
We're quite a kooky couple you'll agree
Quirrell:
We share some hands and fingers
Voldemort:
And yet the feeling lingers
Both:
We're just about as different
As anyone can be...
Voldemort:
You like plotting a garden
And I like plotting to kill
Quirrell:
You think that you should rule the world
I think books are a thrill!
Sipping tea by the fire is swell
Voldemort:
Pushing people in is fun as well!
I like folding all my ties
Quirrell:
And you have no friends
Hey, that's a surprise
Both:
I guess it's plain to see
When you look at you and me
We're different
Different
As can be
Voldemort:
You're a sissy, a twat, a girl!
I'm the darkest of lords!
Quirrell:
I'm the brightest professor here
I've won several awards
Voldemort:
My new world is about to unfold
Quirrell:
You got beat by a two year old
Voldemort:
I'll kill him this time through and through
Quirrell:
Or you might just give him another tattoo
Both:
You really must agree
When you look at you and me
We're different
Different
As can
Voldemort:
I'll rise again and I'll rule the world
But you must help me renew
For when our plan succeeds
Quirrell:
(Spoken) Prevails!
Voldemort:
Part of that world goes to you
Quirrell:
When I rule the world, I'll plant flowers...
Voldemort:
When I rule the world, I'll have snakes...
Voldemort: (Quirrell:)
And goblins, and werewolves
(And Jane Austin novels...)
A fleet of dementors
And giants, and thestrals
And all my Death Eaters!
Both:
When I rule the world!
