I know! It's great! It's freaky though, because the music is happy, whilst the lyrics are a bit... weird XD

[Silverriku]

If you read the comic it juuuust might make sense.

[meiriona]

Lyrical Dissonance at it's finest

[SparklingMinx]

I've read the comic as well, and I think it's well weird and freaky in places, I think it's how Mr Punch looks in the comic, but it suits the freakiness of the song perfectly =3

[chumon1992]

it would make sense if you knew of Punch and Judy

[tvdrpr]

You also have to know the history of punch and judy

[GilesGame]

Absolutely! "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" is my favourite track (3) on Abbey Road. There's a silver gavel in a glass box on my desk... just in case.

If I took your comment seriously, as among the abysmal objections to happy things - raised by the "Politically Correct" (which, by the by, is a perjorative) - then I would be rather distraught.

But,

Here comes a Crocodile, here comes Clootie

Hear the Beadle wheedle, and the ghost of Judy

Rattling her ribs in rodomontade

They're all dead, dead, dead

In the old arcade

[moosicalitee]

That Mr. Punch, he's a rum one, ain't he?

Strapping as his yapping little wife is dainty

Hit her with a big stick, give her what for

And she's dead, dead, dead

On the crimson floor

In the real world, all effects are casual

Amble backstage, see the sticks and swozzle

Talk to the Professor of the tricks of his trade

Ask him for his flask, it's only lemonade...

[moosicalitee]

Song fills me with manical doom glee, along with the absurd lyrics

Everybody gets it sometime, sorry.

Virus, fire, gryoscope, lear jet, lorry.

Choking on a chicken bone lurking in lunch;

And you're dead, dead, dead!

But not Mr. Punch
