Trivia
The 'chapter' tracks are actually interludes that tell the story of the evil Wizard Andy and his plot to kidnap the Princess Arbatina and take over the Kingdom. The Prince Pusillanimous consults with the Arbatina's greasy troll David to find out where she has been taken. He then begins his rescue mission much to the dismay of David who was also in love with Arbatina.[1] After a fight which results in Andy's demise, Pusillanimous and Arbatina are re-united. During a 'secret track' at the end of the album, Pusillanimous leaves Arbatina after he has sexual intercourse with her.
'Magic Time' contains a prominent sample of the quote, 'Alright people, it's Magic Time!' from the 1987 film, Spaceballs.[1]
