Be Prepared

to the tune of “Be Prepared” from The Lion King

(Sung by Voldemort to his Death Eaters on the night he returns)

Voldemort:
I never thought Death Eaters essential
They’re weak and may flee once again
But maybe power is potential
If allied to my vision and brain

I know that your powers of magic
Cannot be completely relied on
But thick as you are, pay attention!
My words are a matter of pride

It’s clear from your frightened expressions
You’re not all as brave as you think
But I’m talking murder and succession!
Even you can’t be caught out of sync

So prepare for a villainous lifestyle
Prepare for sensational spells!
A darker new era
Is flying in nearer

Death Eaters:
And where do we feature?

Voldemort:
Just listen to Teacher,
It’s evil and sordid
And you’ll be rewarded
When at last I get my revenge
Everyone will be so scared
Be prepared!

Death Eater:
Yeah! We’ll be prepared…for what?

Voldemort:
For the death of Potter!

Death Eater:
Why? Is he sick?

Voldemort:
No, fool, We’re gonna kill him! And Dumbledore too!

Death Eaters:
Great idea, who needs powerful wizards?

Voldemort:
Idiots! There will be a powerful wizard, I will rule! And you’ll never see Mudbloods again!

Death Eaters:
Yay! All right, long live the Dark Lord, long live the Dark Lord!

Voldemort:
So prepare for the turn of the century
So prepare for a murderous scam (oo la la la)
Meticulous planning
But no Azkaban-ing
Decades of denial
Is simply why I will
Rule undisputed
Respected, saluted
And praised for the great wizard I am!
Yes, my wand and ambitions are bared
Be prepared!

Death Eaters:
Yes, our wands and ambitions are bared, be prepared!
