No weapons, and no magic.
Speaker B
Let the rap battle begin.
Speaker C
I'm Katniss and I can't miss, I'm the fastest, you can't catch this, make a last wish.
Speaker C
Gonna need three cannons for this hat trick, so sick of your schtick.
Speaker C
All I do is win, you nitpick, that's why I'm the hero and you're just a sidekick.
Speaker C
Pathetic and predictable, I'm hot on your trail, coulda had a Viktor but you chose ginger fail?
Speaker C
I bet with wands drawn, he's still just a yawn with performances worse than Michael Gambon.
Speaker C
Got a Nimbus up your butt? Well, let's probe deeper, never played Quidditch but you know I'm a keeper.
Speaker C
You must be drunk on butterbeer, now grab a cloak and disappear who wants to kick this witch's ass?
Speaker C
Hmm, I volunteer!
Speaker D
Oh, there'll be no trouble 'cause on stage you struggle, I'll be charming and disarming while I waste this rubbish Muggle.
Speaker D
I'll end this blasted skrewt, propaganda prostitute who thinks she's so cute with her Girl Scout salute.
Speaker D
Just a tribute, can't decide which guy's sweeter, share your bread with Gale then stuff your mouth with Peeta.
Speaker D
How does it help the poor to start a civil war?
Speaker D
Your story's a bore, why don't you plagiarize more? It's been done before, ask Dumbledore.
Speaker A
It's Battle Royale set in 1984.
Speaker D
And furthermore, if you're keeping score, that's five more points for Gryffindor!
Speaker A
Gryffindor!
Speaker C
I'll drill this dentists' daughter here in her alma mater, 'bout to slaughter this otter, even Potter knows I'm hotter.
Speaker C
I stomp career jocks, kick your British buttocks, for this Riddle, second fiddle, you're the Watson to his Sherlock.
Speaker C
Turn back the clocks, tick tock, tick tock, odds ever in my favor 'cause you rap like an Avox.
Speaker C
Shock the mic like a wire, you'll fry and die on a pyre 'cause you're gonna get burned by the girl on fire!
Speaker D
On fire? Oh! Just like your dad.
Speaker D
Or the hospital you visited to film a quick ad.
Speaker D
I've got the cortex to ace my subjects, I've got that bad blood while you run with rejects.
Speaker D
These coal miner rednecks need reality checks, you're just another pawn in the military complex.
Speaker D
A fashion figurehead for the underfed, brilliant, you survived but Rue's still dead.
Speaker C
The difference between you and me is book knowledge and street smarts, step to the Mockingjay you'll end up with scar marks.
Speaker C
It's like you're hijacked, you're mental, delirious, we find it funny but you're dead Sirius.
Speaker C
I'm the pro with a bow and the flow to overthrow Mr. Snow and his whole freaking reality show.
Speaker C
Little miss perfect, though what's truly twisted on your parents' happiest day they forgot you existed.
Speaker D
I bust bars like Haymitch, the smartest witch, I own this bitch, hey, how are you still hungry in that beefcake sandwich?
Speaker C
Fraud wedding, fake baby and your flames don't exist.
Speaker D
So-called star-crossed lovers need a camera to kiss.
Speaker D
I sling unforgettable verses like unforgivable curses, what's worse is your universe isn't immersive.
Speaker D
Your glory's only temporary, your country is a mortuary, next on your itinerary, kill yourself, eat the berries.
Speaker A
Saucy.
Speaker C
You did such a great job.
Speaker D
I didn't mean any of those awful things that I said.
Speaker C
