Longer Weens …

 

- Wake up, llama.
Stand up. Get out of bed.
It is time for school.

* But it is Saturday.
There are no classes on Saturdays.

- No classes, you are right, animal
But do not forget the extracurricular activities.
This morning you will have a short training
and the most important Quaddatch match
of the whole semester afterwards.
Come on. Get a breakfast - one smart cookie or two
and be the best sneak MixMax has ever seen later today.

* You are such a Quaddatch-Mom, Bromford.

I kick over the hammock and the animal falls to the floor.

* I do not want to play Quaddatch.
Drusilla Dangerface is always making fun of me.
I almost fell from my flying cannon ball the other day.

- Come on, llama. Be the animal I never was.

* I don't like MixMax, the Institute for Wizardcraft and Witchery.
And I do not like the horse blanket they gave me as a school uniform.
And I do not like the dorms. And I do not like travelling by pneumatic tube.

- Come on. Do not be unfair. You can sleep at home now.
They moved the whole school from out of nowhere to the
city of Bromford. MixMax is not a boarding school anymore.

* You are right, Quaddatch-Mom. MixMax is a waterboarding school now.
They made the ridiculous rules even more ridiculous. Have you seen the
underwater part in the second inning of the fifth quarter of the third half
of the Quaddatch match?

- Stop this whining! Go out there. Ride your cannon ball! Play Quaddatch!
And later tonight we will see each other at the Halogen feast in the Great Shack

* No breakfast for me today, Quaddatch-Brom! I have got a match to win.

And with the heavy cannon ball banging on the floor behind it, the animal storms out of the penthouse on the rooftop of the apartment building on 666 Whitaker Lane in Bromford, the friendly town by the shore and seaside.

We're only making plans for Nigel
We only want what's best for him
We're only making plans for Nigel
Nigel just needs that helping hand

He must be happy
He must be happy
He must be happy in his work

We're only making plans for Nigel
He has this future in a British steel
We're only making plans for Nigel
Nigel's whole future is as good as sealed, yeah

And if young Nigel says he's happy
He must be happy
He must be happy
He must be happy in his work

Nigel is not outspoken
But he likes to speak, and he loves to be spoken to (In his work)
Nigel is happy in his work (In his work)
Nigel is happy in his work (In his work)

We're only making plans for Nigel
We only want what's best for him
We're only making plans for Nigel
Nigel just needs this helping hand

And if young Nigel says he's happy
He must be happy

And the fortune cookies says,

All things are difficult before they seem easy.
