VERSE ONE In a forest dark and dreary stands a castle of brick and stone And within the Wizard and his Ogres plan their wicked chores In the town the people hide to save their meager, little lives For they fear the mighty Wizard and his Ogres rough and dry CHORUS Run, oh run, you little people The Wizard's band arrive Run, oh run, you little people The Ogres do arrive REFRAIN "There is little you can do But not unlike the bird that flew You can do it, you can try Or the Wizard says you die" VERSE TWO Down the pass from mountain high through the forest, battle cries Ogres, Ogres everywhere the stench of war hangs in the air The people flee, the children hide none to stand, to fight, to die The Wizard's strength is much indeed, the people know his word to heed. CHORUS (Repeat) REFRAIN (Repeat) (Guitar solo) VERSE THREE (Repeat Verse 2) CHORUS (Repeat)
