1. D Joan was quizzical H7 studied metaphysical
Emi science in the home
A7 late nights all alone with a test-tube
D oh-oh-oh- A oh
D Maxwell Edison H7 majoring in medicine
Emi calls her on the phone
" A7 Can I take you out to the pictures
D Joa-oa-oa- A oan?"
But E7 as she’s getting ready to go
a A7 knock comes on the door.
®: D Bang! Bang! Maxwell’s silver hammer
came E7 down upon her head.
A7 Clang! Clang! Maxwell’s silver hammer
made Emi sure that A7 she was D dead.
2. Back in school again Maxwell plays the fool again
teacher gets annoyed
wishing to avoid an unpleasant
sce-e-e-ene
she tells Max to stay when the class has gone away
so he waits behind
writing 50 times "I must not be
so-o-o-o."
But when she turns her back on the boy
he creeps up from behind.

3. P.C. Thirty-One said "We caught a dirty one"
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-o-o-o
but as the words are leaving his lips
a noise comes from behind.
®: Bang! Bang! Maxwell’s silver hammer
came down upon his head.
Clang! Clang! Maxwell’s silver hammer
made sure that he was dead.
