Late nights all alone with a test tube

A knock comes on the door...

Back in school again Maxwell plays the fool again
Em
Teacher gets annoyed 
A7                             D         A
Wishing to avoid an unpleasant sce-e-e-ene

So he waits behind

He creeps up from behind

Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer
     E7
Came down upon her head

Clang, clang, Maxwell's silver hammer
     Em        A7      D    A
Made sure that she was dead

P.C. Thirty-One said "we caught a dirty one"
Maxwell stands alone
Painting testimonial pictures ohh-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-oo
But as the words are leaving his lips
A noise comes from behind

D 
Bang, bang, Maxwell's silver hammer
     E7
Came down upon her head
A7
Clang, clang, Maxwell's silver hammer
     Em        A7     D    A
Made sure that he was dead
