Peanuts Revolution?

I was watching something about the English monarchy on PBS, and when they mentioned Cromwell and the Roundheads, I instantly thought: “The Blockheads”. And that made me think of the Peanuts characters. So I thought it might be fun to have a rebellion situation where Lucy is the queen, but the other Peanuts get tired of her tyrannical behavior, so they revolt, led by Charlie Brown. Well, Lucy calls them the Blockheads because they follow Charlie Brown, but they overthrow her anyway; and as she is led to the block (to be beheaded), Schroeder plays the funeral march, smiling all the way (because Lucy always sexually harassed him, if you remember).
