The Beatles - Maxwell's Silver Hammer Lyrics
Joan was quizzical, studied pataphysicalScience in the homeLate nights all alone with her test tubeOh, oh oh ohMaxwell Edison, majoring in medicineCalls her on the phone"Can I take you out to the pictures Joan?"But as she's getting ready to goA knock comes on the doorBang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammerCame down upon her headClang! Clang! Maxwell's silver hammerMade sure that she was deadBack in school again Maxwell plays the fool againTeacher gets annoyedWishing to avoid an unpleasant sceneShe tells Max to stay when the class has gone awaySo he waits behindWriting fifty times, "I must not be soâ€But when she turns her back on the boyHe creeps up from behindBang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammerCame down upon her headBang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammerMade sure that she was deadP.C. Thirty One said, "We caught a dirty one"Maxwell stands alonePainting testimonial picturesOh, oh oh ohRose and Valerie screaming from the gallerySay he must go freeThe judge does not agree, and he tells them soBut as the words are leaving his lipsA noise comes from behindBang! Bang! Maxwell's silver hammerCame down upon his headClang! Clang! Maxwell's silver hammerMade sure that he was deadSilver hammer man!
