[Intro]
Bbm
[Verse 1]
Bbm F
Attend the tale of Maxwell Roth, he sought the footlights like a moth
Db F
His sense of timing never off until:
Bbm F
He opted to collaborate with a hooded reprobate
Ebm F7 Bbm
The Blighter and Assassin made a deadly double bill
[Chorus 1]
Bbm F Gb Bbm
Jokes, jokes, jokes, make 'em laugh until they choke
Gb Bbm Ab
Fairly slay 'em, in the aisles, maidens fair and princes charming
Bbm F Gb Bbm
Thrills, thrills, thrills, dashing feats and bloody spills
Gb Bbm F7#5 Bbm
And I guarantee you'll never see the ending coming
Bbm
[Verse 2]
Bbm F
The curtain rose, the scene was set, they danced a murderous duet
Db F
And much deserving blood was let up to
Bbm F
The scene wherein they disagreed on who should live and who should bleed and
Ebm F7 Bbm
Maxwell Roth he then received a very bad review
[Chorus 2]
Bbm F Gb Bbm
Jokes, jokes, jokes, and there's daggers and there's cloaks
Gb Bbm Ab
But behind the scenes the leading players differ on the plot
Bbm F Gb Bbm
Laugh, laugh, laugh, at the dandy's new red scarf
Gb Bbm F7#5 Bbm
Now eight shows a week to Beelzebub is his eternal lot
[Chorus 3]
Bbm F Gb Bbm
Jokes, jokes, jokes, make 'em laugh until they choke
Gb Bbm Ab
Fairly slay 'em, in the aisles, maidens fair and princes charming
Bbm F Gb Bbm
Thrills, thrills, thrills, dashing feats and bloody spills
Gb Bbm F7#5
And I guarantee you'll never see the ending coming
