TEA LEAF PROPHECIES
A parody of "Tea and Sympathy" by Jars of Clay

Potential Spoilers for "Harry Potter and the Prisoner of Azkaban"

Filk number three in three days. Just what have you done to me? :p

Scenario: Harry, Hermione, Neville, Parvati, and Lavender musically rant and rave after their first Divination lesson with Professor Trelawney....

===

Harry:
Don't feel well.
Just heard all her words and tea leaf prophecies.
Telling us of deaths and those things that will be.
The Grim's in my cup, and this will be the end of me.

Hermione:
Not content
to stay here in this class, this stuffy room.
I'm a captive in this Tower, won't be rescued.
I'll drop this stupid class and concentrate on Ancient Runes.

Hermione:
'Tis not the way that it should be.
Don't trust in all these tea leaf prophecies, no.
And 'tis not the way that it should be.

Neville:
She foretold
that in this class I will clumsily break china cups.
The next minute my cup falls, I try to sweep it up.
Reached for one more, and went on reading leaves.

Hermione:
'Tis not the way that it should be.
Don't trust in all these tea leaf prophecies, no.
And 'tis not the way that it should be.
Don't trust in all these tea leaf prophecies.

[short instrumental and background vocals]

Parvati (to Hermione):
Love this class
the smoke, the scent of leaves that fill my head.
I can sense your bitterness
'Cause you don't have the gift, you can't read the future,
Can't make a prediction or two.

Lavender:
'Cause this is the way that it should be.
You should believe in tea leaf prophecies, oh.
This is the way that it should be.
You should believe in tea leaf prophecies.

Parvati:
This is the way that it should be.
You should believe her tea leaf prophecies, oh.
This is the way that it should be.
You should believe her tea leaf prophecies.
Yeah, oh.

Hermione (and Harry):
Don't believe in tea leaf prophecies.
(Don't believe in tea leaf prophecies.)
Don't believe in tea leaf prophecies.
We all have our doubts.

Hermione (and Harry):
Don't believe in tea leaf prophecies.
(Don't believe in tea leaf prophecies.)
Don't believe in tea leaf prophecies.
We all have our doubts.
No. Oh.
We all have our doubts, oh.
