All Of Me cover

My first original song - written as a Wizard Rock or Wrock genre song meaning it takes place in the Harry Potter Universe. Part of the Patil Project band conceived by Sharmin Rahman, specifically takes place during Goblet of Fire/Book 4. Created back in the day ... before JK went all TERF :-(

LYRICS:
Why can’t I wear 
the damn butterfly in my hair
Oh McGonagall 
Don’t get you at all 
It’s not the Yule Ball
Why do you care
Oh why can’t I wear 
the damn butterfly in my hair
Girls from Beauxbatons
Wearing tons and tons
Of fancy buttons
How can I compare
Oh why ….

Last week Lavender wore freakin werewolf fur
And Ginny Weasley wore
A miniskirt she tore
She looked like a whore
Guess it’s ok for her
Fleur Delacour
Wore skimpy french couture
Even Potter saw
Dropped his stupid jaw
Should be ‘gainst the law
But it worked for sure

So why can’t I wear 
the damn butterfly in my hair
Stand out from the crowd
Make my house proud
It should be allowed
It isn’t fair

Oh Why …

Some of the other girls
Have such perfect curls
Or they’re tall and thin
Or have perfect skin
Like they’re made of win
Stupid teeth like pearls

Oh they use makeup charms
And the boys hang on their arms
Just cuz they’re handsome
Girls act like they’re dumb
Like their brains are numb
 But you’re not alarmed

So why can’t I wear
The damn butterfly in my hair
I don’t act like that
I’m not such a prat
What I’m getting at
What I want to share is

I should get to wear
The damn butterfly in my hair
It’s not a big deal
Come on let’s be real
Lose that look of steel
These chances are rare

Oh Why ….

Megan Jones, Susan Bones, Hannah Abbott, Sally Anne Perks, Su Li, Katie Bell,
Mandy Brocklehurst, Angelina Johnson, Lisa Turpin
CHOOOO CHAAAANG

Marietta Edgecombe, Penelope Clearwater, Daphne and Astoria Greengrass, Demelza Robins, Romilda Vane, Tracey Davis and EVEN MY SISTER

Oh Why ...
It's just a butterfly ...
McGonagall it's not fair, why do you care, it's just in my hair

Lyrics

Pallavi 

Himagiri thanaye hemalathe amba 
Eeshwari sreeLalithe mamava 

Anupallavi 
Rama Vani samsevitha sakale 
Rajarajeshwari ramasahodari 

Charanam 

Paashaankusheshu danda kare amba 
Paaraathpare nijabhakta pare 
Ashambare hari kesha vilase 
Aanantha roope amrutha prathape.

Carnatic Classical Fusion (Himahiri Thanaye) -  Aathirai Sivapalan

do you
meet me in the halls
or on a city street
accidentally 
could you
feel it from a first look 
and know that it was me 

are you gentle 
are you clean

do your 
arms fall round my neck 
listen to my voice 
and know that i'm your friend

are you gentle
are you clean 
do you ever 
think of me

Did You Ever Know
