Hogwarts School Song--American Version!

UnknownDreamland · February 2009

As we all should know, Hogwarts takes place in Britain. British and Americans speak slightly differently from one another, as we know. Now even the slightest difference can be very amusing! For those that don't know the song.. The British Version. "Hogwarts, Hogwarts, Hoggy Warty Hogwarts, Teach us something, please, Whether we be old and bald Or young with scabby knees, Our heads could do with filling With some interesting stuff, For now they're bare and full of air, Dead flies and bits of fluff, So teach us things worth knowing, Bring back what we've forgot, Just do your best, we'll do the rest, And learn until our brains all rot." Now just a slight difference for the American version. "Pigzits, Pigzits, Piggy Zitty Pigzits, Teach us something, please, Whether we be old and bald Or young with scabby knees, Our heads could do with filling With some interesting stuff, For now they're bare and full of air, Dead flies and bits of fluff, So teach us things worth knowing, Bring back what we've forgot, Just do your best, we'll do the rest, And learn until our brains all rot." I was just bored and was thinking about differences between America and Britain. XD

XD warts aren't pimples! Either way, the American version had me in stitches, and my mum's looking at me like I'm a nutter or sommat. Molto Bene, mate.

Well, I was watching Rick Mercer's talking to americans and here's our actual anthem: O Canada! Our home and native land! True patriot love in all thy sons command. With glowing hearts we see thee rise, The True North strong and free! From far and wide, O Canada, we stand on guard for thee. God keep our land glorious and free! O Canada, we stand on guard for thee. O Canada, we stand on guard for thee. And here's the americans version: (No offense at any and all americans, i just thought it was funny) Oh Canada A great big empty land We look to America for a helping hand. With Bannock bread and Caribou eggs, The true north big and cold Oh canada, we are on top We're close to the noth pole Fermez la bouche, mangez poutine (Translation: Shut your mouth, eat poutine) Can-ada, a lovely winter dream Oh Canada La la la la, la, laaaaaaa

Yes, they are quite a bit different, don't you think? Anyways, if you must watch talking to americans, there are 4 parts, go to youtube and search "talking to americans", and pick the one that says part one beside it. (Note: Americans may find this slightly offensive, but read the comments and you may understand why canadians find it so funny). You will enjoy it more if you know a fair bit about canada (like how caribou don't lay eggs, and that we don't have a national igloo).

Charlie, you look quite down, with your big fat eyes and your big fat frown. The world doesn't have to be so grey! Charlie, when you're in life's a mess, when you're feeling blue always in distress- I know what can wash that sad away... All you have to do is: Put a banana in your ear! (a banana in my ear?) Put a ripe banana right into your favorite ear! It's true (says who?) so true. Once it's in your gloom will disappear. The bad in the world is hard to hear, when in your ear a banana cheers! So, go and put a banana in your ear. [everyone sings] Put a banana in your ear! (I'd rather keep my ear clear!) You will never be happy if you live your life in fear! It's true, (says you) so true. When it's in the skies are bright and clear! Oh, every day of every year the sun shines bright on this big blue sphere, so go and put a banana in your ear! (parenthesis is Charlie singing) I know that song lol

Howdy, Stranger!
