Jordon!
Riding on a skeleton horse of fire!

Lee!
Riding on a skeleton horse of fire!

But no, I'm riding a skeleton horse of fire

Ya, you have to pick something different

Lee!
Riding on a skeleton horse of... water!

What? A waterhorse?

You mean like a seahorse?

Well, at least I'm not riding on a chicken!

Who said I'm riding on a chicken?

Benny!
Riding on a chicken!

But why do I have to ride a chicken?
You guys got to choose yours!
I want to ride a dragon!

We ride!

From now till the end

And in the misty halls of Asgard
F               C
Where the Gods watch over man

They tried to curse the Axis for our pride
Bm           Am
But alas, we were too awesome
F                  C
Their powers weak against our might
Dm                        F
So we kicked them in the balls

And then they cried
