The House Cup

On the day of September first
The students are all alive
With excitement for the coming year
Each house of Hogwarts has a drive

Riding the Hogwarts Express, they chat
About what is yet to come
The beat of their heart and the clack of the track
Is louder than any drum.

Slytherins, while cunning
Lack bravery and heart
Like Gryffindors who are daring
Who can tear their foes apart

Hufflepuffs are the greatest
Friends one could ever have
And Ravenclaws are the wisest
Whose knowledge could never halve

Each house wants to win the Cup
And feast and feast for hours
They'll seize the day and then they'll think,
The House Cup is as good as ours!
