Dear Mr. Potter - Hank Green

Dear Harry Potter

I got a lot to say to you

I don’t expect you to listen

After all that you’ve been through

But I’m saying this for me, I’m not saying it for you

Yes I’m saying it for a few other people too

And it’s true that overall you get a positive review

But I hope you don’t mind I’ve just got one question for you

Well is this it?

Is this the last piece of the pie

The pie that most of us have been eating all of our adult lives

Is this it?

Is this what we’ve been waiting for

To watch as Daniel Radcliffe valiantly pretends to fight your war

Is this it?

Is this it?

Is this it?

Is this it?

Dear Mr. Potter

You did a lot for m

You helped me pick up this guitar larn more than G, C and D

You launched my whole career, in actuality

If it weren’t for you then literally none of this would be

So I am hugely in your debt.

there’s no doubt about that

But I’m sorry if it seems if I won’t get off your back

'Cause is this it?

Is this the last piece of the pie

The pie that most of us have been eating all of our adult lives

Is this it?

Is this what we’ve been waiting for

To watch as Alan Rickman tells us all why Snape killed Dumbledore

Is this it?

Is this it?

Is this it?

Is this it?

Dear Mr. Potter

I hope that you don’t mind

But it turns out it’s been years since we left you behind

Because we’re here because we love you, we’re not here for you

We’re here to watch and learn and sing and make videos for YouTube

But more than any of that, we’re here to be with our friends

And that is clearly not the sort of thing that will ever end

So this ain’t it

This ain’t it

This ain’t it

This ain’t it

This ain’t it

This ain’t it

This ain’t it

This ain’t it

No this ain’t it.

No, this place was built to last

We’ve got more fun in our future than we have in our past

This ain’t it.

We’re to watch and sing and play

We’re gonna love these books and each other until our dying day

Cause this ain’t it
