in case you've never listened to the lyrics

The Beatles' "Maxwell's Silver Hammer" is, if you are (like me) one of those people who doesn't (at first) listen to the lyrics, a happy bouncy little song.

This Flash animation does a very effective job, including subtitles, of portraying the literal story told by the lyrics. Warning: includes graphic (cartoon) violence.

I'm not sure why I'm posting this either.

I admit, I always thought the song was dark and violent under the happy music, though I don't think my childhood imagination was that graphic.
