[00:09.980]Joan was quizzical; studied pataphysical
[00:13.690]Science in the home
[00:17.360]Late nights all alone with a test tube
[00:21.440]Oh, oh, oh, oh
[00:24.960]Maxwell Edison, majoring in medicine
[00:28.970]Calls her on the phone
[00:32.560]"Can I take you out to the pictures
[00:36.450]Joa, oa, oa, oan?"
[00:40.310]But as she's getting ready to go
[00:43.850]A knock comes on the door
[00:47.720]Bang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
[00:51.220]Came down upon her head
[00:55.240]Bang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
[00:58.740]Made sure that she was dead
[01:10.560]Back in school again Maxwell plays the fool again
[01:14.180]Teacher gets annoyed
[01:18.020]Wishing to avoid an unpleasant
[01:21.800]Sce, e, e, ene
[01:25.650]She tells Max to stay when the class has gone away
[01:29.480]So he waits behind
[01:33.230]Writing 50 times "I must not be
[01:36.960]So, o, o, o"
[01:40.710]But when she turns her back on the boy
[01:44.510]He creeps up from behind
[01:48.290]Bang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
[01:51.700]Came down upon her head
[01:55.650]Bang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
[01:59.050]Made sure that she was dead
[02:25.840]P. C. 31 said, "We caught a dirty one."
[02:29.220]Maxwell stands alone
[02:32.940]Painting testimonial pictures
[02:36.610]Oh, oh, oh, oh
[02:40.230]Rose and Valerie, screaming from the gallery
[02:44.090]Say he must go free
[02:49.600]The judge does not agree and he tells them
[02:51.460]So, o, o, o
[02:55.130]But as the words are leaving his lips
[02:58.780]A noise comes from behind
[03:02.840]Bang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
[03:06.030]Came down upon his head
[03:10.180]Bang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammer
[03:13.210]Made sure he was dead
