Special Halloween Edition

Hammer and Axe (Tangerine_Dream)

Edward McNeary

Was oh, so dreary

Carrying his hammer about

He would take it to the movies

And then to the park

While courting Miss Mary Jane Stout

He would fashion a bow 'round it

To make sure it matched

The color of Miss Mary Jane's dress

For the love he had For Miss Mary Jane

Was strong and pure but made such a mess

Whenever a man would say to his dear love

She was pretty and lovely as a dove

Edward McNeary, with his hammer so dreary

Would come down upon his head

and knock his noggin over and over

until he was dead.

And then one day

Edward found out

Miss Mary Jane loved another

And Edward McNeary

Became quite teary

When he found out it was his brother

Edward McNeary

Was ready and waiting

With his dreary hammer in hand

When all of a sudden

A maiden sad and sullen

Cut off his brother's head with an axe

He said to the maiden,

now covered in red

Why did you cut off

me poor brother's head?

And the maiden so happy

Flashed a pearly white grin

Her hand now crimson

Scratched thoughtfully at her chin

And she said,

Oh Mr McNeary

You see my axe is so dreary

I carry it wherever I go

But I suspected me love

Was smitten with a dove

So I cut off his head with one blow

A love blossomed 'tween them

And together they fled

With Hammer and Axe,

The happy couple were wed.
