And not surprisingly, Steve Goodie and Nuclear Bubble Wrap have teamed up to create an all-new Harry Potter song! Voldemort has decided that it's time for Draco Malfoy to fulfill a certain task that will secure his place among the Death Eaters. This parody of the Disney classic "Hakuna Matata" tells the story of Draco learning how to use "Avada Kedavra," the killing curse in the Harry Potter series. Will Draco live up to the task? Will Wormtail survive the lesson? Will Voldemort grow a real nose and become a real boy? The answers to these and many more questions will be revealed in the video by Andrew Kepple!

lyrics
Wormtail: Draco, at times like this, we Death Eaters say you must “Get Lord Voldemort’s behind.”
Voldemort: No. No. No.
Wormtail: Sorry my lord...
Voldemort: Amateur. It's “Get behind Lord Voldemort.” Draco, a bad thing needs to happen, and it’s up to you.
Draco: That’s not what they teach us at Hogwarts.
Voldemort: Then maybe you need a new lesson! Avada Kedavra! What a wonderful curse.
Wormtail: Avada Kedavra! They don’t get any worse.
Voldemort: It means no Harry, better call him a hearse…
Wormtail: Okay… he’s a hearse!
Voldemort and Wormtail: Ha! It’s our trouble-free, artillery…
Voldemort: Avada Kedavra!
Draco: Avada Kedavra?
Wormtail: Yeah. It's our favorite hex!
Draco: What's a hex?
Voldemort: Geez kid, what the hex wrong with you? Ha ha ha!
Wormtail: Ha ha ha! Good one, my lord. Draco, those two words will solve all your problems.
Voldemort: That's right. Take Wormtail here… Why, when he was a young Hogwarts (student)...
Wormtail: When I was a young Hogwarts (student).
Voldemort: Very nice.
Wormtail: Heh heh, thank you.
Voldemort: He found his persona lacked a certain appeal, he was teased and abused, till he squirmed and he squealed...
Wormtail: I'm a sensitive soul, and I was so chagrined, that they put me in Gryffindor, and not Slytherin, and oh, the shame!
Voldemort: He was ashamed!
Wormtail: Such a lame nickname!
Voldemort: Yeah, Wormtail’s pretty lame.
Wormtail: And I wanted to quit...
Voldemort: How did ya feel?
Wormtail: Well, I felt like…
Voldemort: Hey! Wormy! Not in front of the kids!
Wormtail: Oh. Sorry.
Voldemort and Wormtail: Avada Kedavra! So nicely depraved! Avada Kedavra!
Voldemort: Even though you don’t shave (yet).
Draco: It means no Harry, he’ll go straight to the grave.
Voldemort: Yeah, sing it kid!
Voldemort and Draco: It's our recipe...
Wormtail: For anarchy...
All: Avada Kedavra!
Voldemort: Welcome to the dark side.
Draco: You’re all killers?
Voldemort: We kill whoever we want.
Wormtail: Yup! Turn 'em into rump roasts!
Draco: That’s beautiful!
Wormtail: That Order of the Phoenix makes me so mad!
Draco: I’m so angry I could kill a house-elf.
Voldemort: Heh… we don’t need a house-elf killed… yet.
Draco: An owl?
Voldemort: Nuh-uh.
Draco: Harry Potter?!
Voldemort: No, he’s mine! Listen, if you’re going be a Death Eater, you have to act like a Death Eater. And there’s one fella that REALLY needs to… go away.
Draco: Oooh, who’s that?
Voldemort: A certain headmaster… who did you think?
Draco: Ohhhh…. Wow…
Voldemort: Oh yeah… I hope you’re not chicken.
Wormtail: Unforgivable, yet satisfying!
Voldemort: This is a rare opportunity.
Wormtail: Mmm hmmm.
Voldemort: Mmmm… he’ll die with a very pleasant crunch.
Wormtail: You’ll learn to love it!
Voldemort: I’m tellin’ you kid, this is the great life. No rules, no accountability… Oooh! The little muggle kind. And best of all… we’re all pureblood!
Voldemort: That’s right… it’s the circle of death…
Draco: Avada Kedavra!
Voldemort: Be prepared… can you feel the death tonight?
Wormtail: My hand hurts…
Draco: Avada Kedavra!
Voldemort: I just can’t wait to be king! King… King Voldemort… that’s, that’s me… King Voldemort!
