[segment opens on a brick wall; as the egg balances his arms with a beatnik hat on top]
♪ Humpty Dumpty sat on a wall ♪
Yeah, man! It's real cool up here hanging out, checking out the scenery...playing my bongos!
[an image of bongos appears; silhouette hands play the bongos as Humpty Dumpty scats]
♪ Humpty Dumpty had a great fall ♪
Wow, man! I can see my house from here! Oh, yeah! Uh-oh, I slipped! [screams]
♪ All the King's horses ♪ [a horse appears, neighs; with the egg's broken pieces]
♪ And all the King's men couldn't put Humpty together again ♪
[angrily] Well of course we can't put him back together again! [raises his finger points at the horse] Have you ever seen a horse trying to do anything back together? That's absolutely ridiculous how they can't even hold onto the glue pot!
[as the horse tries to pick up the pot of glue]
[very angry that the horse dropped the glue] That's it! I'm leaving and I'm not going to weld responsibly for this mess! [leaves, the horse picks up a lump of sugar & neighs] No, I will not come back to work for a lump of sugar! Goodbye! [leaves as Shadow starts humming]
[heartbroken and cradles one of the egg's broken pieces] Oh, Humpty.
