Maxwell's Silver Hammer - 2019 Mix

Joan was quizzical
 Studied pataphysical science in the home
 Late nights all alone with a test tube
 Oh, oh, oh, oh
 Maxwell Edison, majoring in medicine
 Calls her on the phone
 "Can I take you out to the pictures, Joan?"
 But as she's getting ready to go
 A knock comes on the door
 Bang-bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
 Came down upon her head
 Bang-bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
 Made sure that she was dead
 Back in school again, Maxwell plays the fool again
 Teacher gets annoyed
 Wishing to avoid an unpleasant scene
 She tells Max to stay when the class has gone away
 So he waits behind
 Writing 50 times, "I must not be so, oh-oh-oh"
 But when she turns her back on the boy
 He creeps up from behind
 Bang-bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
 Came down upon her head (to-to-ru)
 Bang-bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
 Made sure that she was dead
 (Tu-ru-tu-ru-ru)
 ♪
 P. C. 31 said
 "We caught a 31"
 Maxwell stands alone
 Painting testimonial pictures
 Oh, oh, oh, oh
 Rose and Valerie, screaming from the gallery
 Say he must go free (Maxwell must go free)
 The judge does not agree, and he tells them so, oh-oh-oh
 But as the words are leaving his lips
 A noise comes from behind
 Bang-bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
 Came down upon his head
 Bang-bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
 Made sure he was dead (oh-oh-oh-oh)
