Oh, I Forgot.

There Was A Sweet

And Pretty Flower Girl Who Liked To Grow Flowers

And Give Them To Everyone.

Every Day There Was A Parade.

The Parade Was Led By The Town's Band Leader.

It Was A Small Parade.

In This Land, There Were Lots Of Toys For Everyone.

Each Day Mr. Mayor Handed Them Out

For All The People To Play.

Have You Planned For Us Today, Your Ugliness?

I Like Bossing People Around.

Let's Go To War.

Now You're Talking.

What People Should We War Against, Your Meanness?

I Can't Know Everything.

Wizard, Cometh Forth!

Cometh Forth, Wizard.

Here Comes The Wizard.

Greetings, Your Majesty!

So Tell Me

What Would You Have Me Conjure For You Today?

I Want A War.

You Find Somebody To Fight.

Well, Let Me Look In My Crystal Ball.

Don't Tell Me Less, Don't Tell Me More

Just Tell Me Who We Should Fight In War.

Wait A Second.

It's Kind Of Fuzzy In Here.

This Ball Must Have Been On The Radiator Too Long.

I Can't See Anything.

Off With Her Head!

Wait!

I See Something.

I See A Land Near Here Where Everyone Is Happy.

I Hate Happy People.

They Think They're Hot Stuff.

Happy People Are Not Too Bad.

Some Of My Best Friends Are Happy People.

Off With His Head!

Oh, No.

Well, Happy People Stink.

Actually, I Think We Should Waste Them.

Tell Me More, Wizard.

Their Land Is Across The Ocean And Past The Desert.

They Have Toys For Everyone, And They Like To Sing.

They Sound Like Wimps.

That Does It.

I Hereby Declare War!

War It Is, Your Highness

And Your Most Horrendous Attackedness.

First, Let's Sing Our Song.

So They Sent The Duke Of Doom With A Message.

Farmer: Look!

In The Distance.

A Stranger.

Mayor: Let's Make Him Welcome.

I'll Give Him A Flower.

Hello.

Who Goes There?

I Am The Duke Of Doom, And Don't You Forget It.

Would You Like A Flooberoo?

Doom: No!

Song Leader: Nice To See You.

Why Have You Come?

Because You're In Big Trouble.

Read This.

What Does It Say?

It Says, "We Declare War On You.

"We Will Be Attacking At Noon Tomorrow.

Signed, The King Of Nasty."

Well, Isn't That Nice.

They Want To Have War With Us.
