Just like Roger he's a crazy little kid
I've got the time if you've got the inclination
So cheer up Palmer, you'll soon be dead
The noose is hanging, at least you won't die wondering
Sit up and take notice; Tell it like it is
If I were near you I wouldn't be far from you
I've got a feeling you know what you did
chorus:
AC/DC Bag
AC/DC Bag
AC/DC Bag
DC Bag
(2x)
Time to put your money where your mouth is
Put 'em in a field and let 'em fight it out
I'm running so fast my feet don't touch the ground
I'm a stranger here I'm going down
Let's get down to the nitty gritty
Let's get this show on the road
I'll show you mine if you show me yours
I'm breathing hard - open the door
[chorus]
Brain dead, and made of money
No future at all
Pull down the blinds and run for cover
No future at all
Who would've thought it, that's where I am
No future at all
Don't sweat it, that's where I am
Whoa, carry me down, down, down, down

By that night, news of Palmer's death had traveled back to the camp.
Spirits were low and Colonel Forbin felt devastated. Even though he had
only been in Gamehendge for one day, he had already developed a deep hatred
for Wilson. He wanted desperately to help the revolutionaries, but without
Palmer, it seemed hopeless. He wandered slowly through the camp and passed
Errand Wolfe, sitting by the fire with Rutherford, who had returned that
afternoon. He walked on and soon found himself outside of Tela's hut.
Forbin knocked and walked in. Tela sat behind a makeshift desk in the
center of a room that was littered with small cages containing spotted
stripers, a tiny three-legged breed of animal. The unit monster sat in the
corner. The colonel took a step toward Tela and spoke. "I needed to come
here tonight" he said, "to tell you that I've fallen in love with you." He
looked to her eyes for approval but her face remained frozen in an
expressionless stare. An awkward blanket of silence fell over the room and
hung for a long moment before being shattered by the sound of the door
swinging violently open. It was Rutherford the Brave. The ironclad knight
rushed across the room and gripped the throats of Tela and the unit monster
in each of his mighty hands. They struggled to break free but even the
unit monster was no match for Rutherford's power and soon it was over. The
bodies fell to the floor in a lifeless heap. Colonel Forbin stepped
forward from where he stood in the corner; unable to contain his confusion
and rage and screamed "WHY?" His question was answered by Errand Wolfe who
had quietly slipped through the doorway during the confusion. "She was a
spy," he said, and explained to Forbin that she had been sending
information to Wilson using the spotted stripers as carriers. Roger's
death had aroused his suspicion, and Palmer's had confirmed it. The
colonel stood in silence in a world that had turned up-side-down so many
times that he no longer knew which way was up. It had all seemed so simple
when he first arrived. Good versus evil, and of course he had sided with
good as he had done all his life. And now, he stood and stared into the
eyes of Errand Wolfe and he saw evil. The entire picture began to seem
like an enormous puzzle with one piece missing, and the colonel knew what
that piece was. "Within twenty-four hours," he said to Errand Wolfe, "You
will have the Helping Friendly Book." And even as the words were leaving
his lips, he found himself running out the door and into the forest, not
towards Prussia, but toward the great mountain looming in the distance.
