"You Should Have Read the Book" (Original)

In which Kiera sings the first complete song she's ever written. It's about Harry Potter. It's rather nerdy. Woo hoo! :)

You can download a free mp3 of this song (and some of my other songs) at http://kierajo.bandcamp.com !

LYRICS:

VERSE 1
(Sung)
Oooooh Ooooooh
You still don't know how the end's gonna look
'Cause you never bothered to pick up a book
You've just discovered Half-Blood Prince is coming out
But you don't even know what it'll be about

(Spoken)
So...it's called The Half-Blood Prince...so it's about a prince...right? Like, is he royalty? Is he hot? Oh. Em. Gee. I just thought of something, like, so totally intellectual. I bet Harry is a prince and his dad was, like, King of the Wizards!

CHORUS
(Sung)
Well, you should have read the book
Taken all the time it took to finish and to understand
All the things that happened in the book
At you I can hardly stand to look

VERSE 2
You say you're a fan, but you just watch the movies
You ask stupid questions like "Who the heck is Peeves?"
You have no idea how Harry obtained his Firebolt
And you only think of Neville as a stupid dolt

(Spoken)
Like, why is that kid even there? I mean, he's just, like, stupid, right? He never does anything important. Like, couldn't they've just left him out of the movies? I mean, he's not even hot. You know? YOU KNOW?!

REPEAT CHORUS

(Sung)
Oooooh Ooooooooh

VERSE 3
Did you ever know about how Dumbledore had the prophecy?
That's how Harry heard it--yeah, not in the Department of Mysteries
And remember that part where the Room of Requirement is suggested by two house-elfs named Dobby and Winky and not by Neville Longbottom? (Spoken) Not that I have anything against Neville Longbottom, it just wasn't him who suggested that as the meeting place for the DA.
(Sung) And Dumbledore's Army is freaking awesome!

(Spoken)
Dumbledore has an army? Weird! So...do they, like, fight the bad guys? Like, Voldemort and his...oh, what are those people called again that...he fights with? You know, and Malfoy's dad is one, and they all wear masks? Oh yeah! DEMENTORS!

REPEAT CHORUS

HOOK
You say you like Harry Potter
But you haven't read a word
You say you're a Harry Potter fan
That's the stupidest lie I've ever heard

Yeah, you should've read the freakin' books
Taken all the time it took to finish and to understand
All the things that happened in the book
At you I can hardly stand to look
Yes, I wanna beat you over the head
With my book

Dear New Subscribers,
I love you guys! (and old subscribers, I love you, too!!) Thanks for watching! Since you are new to this channel, I'm going to tell you right now that I don't do one particular type of video; I do sketches, songs, vlogs, and skits. What you see just depends on my mood and motivation for that particular day. I hope you keep watching and enjoy my channel!! :)
~Kiera
P.S. Don't worry if you aren't an HP fan, not all of my videos are about Harry.

[Mustachefoo]

So true. When Dobby died in The Deathly Hallows movie everyone was all surprised (the so-called fans), so I loudly whispered "In the next movie, Fred Weasley DIES!"

[ianswertobob]

@Mustachefoo Hahahaha. That is BEAUTIFUL. XD

[iiq96]

have you ever read twilight? =D or what do you know/think 'bout it? ;0)

[ianswertobob]

@iiq96 I have read the whole Twilight saga. While I admit that they're "page-turners" that really make you want to keep reading (and are easy to read in a single sitting/a short amount of time), I'm not really a fan. They're not the kind of books I feel compelled to read repeatedly because I don't come away from them feeling like I've gained anything, and Meyer's characters are a little too flat for me to truly enjoy them.

[iiq96]

@ianswertobob yeah..... =/ I think all of that's kinda true.... I see u really care about your fans and u answer to all their questions!! =) That's really great, so keep goin'.

But I've been wonderin' your username here: What story is behind 'I answer to Bob'?? What does it means?!?

[ianswertobob]

@iiq96 There's not really much of a story so much as a random thought process...it was just kind of the case that other names that I liked were already taken. Then I was like, "I don't care what my name is. I'll answer to anything! [Especially since irl "Kiera" is a name tons of people pronounce wrong or forget.] I answer to 'Bob'!" [Bob is a name my friends and I always use when we have to come up with a name for something.] And that's when I thought, "Huh. That could be my username." #Dumb

[shalado25]

re-re-re-re-re- reading the books! ;) 

[ilymcr87]

Oh but Neville is hot now =]

The books are so amazing. I read them so fast because I couldn't put them down!

Loved Harry Potter since age 8 and I'm now almost 19. =]

[ianswertobob]

@AlieaxKiba Sweet! :D

[Bookworm533]

@LunaMalfoy where in the books does it say that james was a chaser? Can u give the page number or chapter and the title of the book?

[michallaweasley]

i downloaded this song on my ipod :DDD

[michallaweasley]

@iiq96 i hated the twilight series harry potter is the first book i ever read with out being forced

[EVideoJ77]

MATTHEW LEWIS IS FREAKIN HOT!!!!

[Acid1Wolf]

I feel so singled out xD I only read books after I see the movies! Because I know, from past experience with other books, that if I read the book first then see the movie, I will have a horrible hatred towards the movie and critisize it immediattlly.( Sorry bad at spelling Grr ) Of course I won't say I'm a hardcore fan until I've read all the books ( On fifth one, feel ashamed of myself D: ) But I do like it.
