The Ballad of Maxdemian 
A story in three parts 
To the tune of "Maxwell's Silver Hammer", by the Beatles 
New lyrics by Deanna "Janthina" Rubin


(Part 1: Hoisted by his own poniard) 

Ted and Quizzical argue metaphysical 
Econ on the docks 
Tarting all about comms and taxes, yo-ho-ho-ho 
And Maxdemian, acting like a simian 
Asks them both to fight 
"Can I duel you with my new skully Ted-ed-ed-ed?" 
But as he's getting ready to drop 
The grey squares fill his screen 

Bingo! Max's new skull dagger 
Fell down on his head 
Bingo! Max's new skull dagger 
Made sure he was dead. 


(Part 2: Yet but young in deed) 

Back on board again Max will be ignored again 
So he gets annoyed 
Wishing to avoid spending time on sail-ail-ail-ails 
He goes down to carp, Captain's tongue is really sharp 
Threatening the plank 
Doesn't care, to the nails and boards he'll go-oh-oh-oh 
But when the ship is hitting a rock 
The damage starts to climb 

Bang, bang! Max's golden hammer 
Makes a masterpiece 
Bang, bang! Max's golden hammer 
The bilge flow will cease. 


(Part 3: ...and then is heard no more.) 

If I had to guess, I would say the TOS 
Outlaws guys like Max 
Making bots to play all the puzzles, no, no-no-no 
Then the whining starts, you can blame the forum tarts 
Saying "Bring him back" (And the House of Black) 
The devs do not agree, and they tell them so, oh oh oh 
But as he tries to log on an alt 
He gets kicked back offline 

Ban Ban! Max's gone from Midnight 
For good, it will last 
Ban Ban! Max's gone from Midnight 
For being an booty, 
Yo-ho-ho-ho...
