2. The Office of Tom Riddle
Gadding With Ghouls
Dare to Gad (6 September 2012)
So you’re here, but you’re late
Take a seat, please wait
Mr Riddle is a very busy man
But he’ll do what he can
You’ll be next; here’s the door
Mind the snake on the floor
No task too big, no task too small
Mr Riddle takes them all
In return, you’ll have to play your part
To curry favour with the blackest heart
And the longer that you play his game
You’ll find it harder just to say his name
You’re in good company
Famous names, as you see
And Ministry officials, one or two
Because they know the smart thing to do
So, go in, but beware
Scrub your suit, smooth your hair
If Mr Riddle takes a shine to you
You’ll find the gift of a new tattoo
When Mr Riddle makes his puppets dance
He’ll watch the torture with a nonchalance
And when you see his face remains the same
You’ll find it harder just to say his name
Say his name
Say his name
You’ll never be the same
Once you know his name
Come now, you needn’t look so quite unsure
You’re in the presence of a connoisseur
Once you’ve seen his expertise in pain
It’s just impossible to say his name
So you’re here, but you’re late
Take a seat, please wait
Mr Riddle is a very busy man
But he’ll do what he can
