lyrics

The last few weeks I have spent
Thinking I don’t live up to my parents
They were so brave, and so strong too
I wish I didn’t always act like a fool
But I do

I’m sorry that I’m not like my old pop
I didn’t mean to bring shame to the family name
I’m sorry that I’m not like my old pop
I didn’t mean to bring shame to the family name

Everything I do turns out wrong
I start to wonder if I belong
In this world of grand magic
Cause I’m almost just like a Squib
Like a Squib

I’m sorry that I’m not like my old pop
I didn’t mean to bring shame to the family name
I’m sorry that I’m not like my old pop
I didn’t mean to bring shame to the family name

I’ll show them all that I am meant to be
Here at the Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry
Everyone will see that I’m the son
Of aurors Frank and Alice Longbotoom

I know that I’m not like my old pop
But I won’t bring any shame to the family name
I know that I’m not like my old pop
But I won’t bring any shame to the family name
