Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, and Prongs
Four friends, true and strong
Noble Gryffindor's each one,
How did we go so wrong?
The time we spent at Hogwarts school,
I knew you all so well
But one was never what he seemed,
Could any of us tell?
Another two were strong and true,
Brash, perhaps, but good
So keen to help each other out,
Do anything they could.
I was Moony, last one left,
How strange that it should be
When all of this was over with,
The last one left was me.
Not all of us are dead and gone,
But I mourn all the same
For two dead one who tarnishes
The good Marauder name.
First went Wormtail, filthy rat,
Who turned early on
Though stil alive, he's better dead,
And from my heart is gone.
Dear Prongs fell next, at paw of rat
Defending to the end
A noble stag with life cut short,
By one he called a friend.
Now Padfoot, too has joined his friend,
And left me here all alone
I never thought I'd see the day,
When all my friends had gone.
Now what of Moony, last one left,
Just what can he do now?
All I can do is sit and cry,
And wonder simple how?
Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, Prongs,
Four Gryffindor's of old
Where once your warm embrace,
There now is naught but cold.
The best of friends, the worst of foes,
It now is all the same,
Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, Prongs
We have ourselves to blame.
We should have seen, we should have known,
Now I just sit and sigh,
Moony, Wormtail, Padfoot, Prongs
It's time to say goodbye.
