Penny Dreadfuls by Joe Iconis Lyrics
[JOE]
Before I met you
Kittens were singin' in the trees
And mermaids were ticklin' my knees
And life was a lovely larp
Before I met you
Angels were feedin' me cherry pies
Until you opened up my eyes
To things most dark
Now when I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and
Many headfuls
Of nasty, evil things
And I clutch my pillow tight
But a power beyond my bed pulls me to
Places where I ruminate
On nasty, evil things
And I try and try to clear my mind
But I find my mind's been intertwined
With gory thoughts
And there's nothing I can do, ooh
When I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and it's
All because of you
[JASON]
Before I met you
I never dropped or popped no pills
I wasn't all hopped up on chills
And life was stars and dreams
[LANCE & OTHERS]
Sometimes I'd like to
Go back to the way it used to be
But then you take a hold of me
And I need to smell those scars and hear those screams
[JOE & LANCE]
Now when I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and
Many headfuls
Of nasty, evil things
And I clutch my pillow tight
But a power beyond my bed pulls me to
Places where I ruminate
On nasty, evil things
And I try and try to clear my mind
But I find my mind's been intertwined
With gory thoughts
And there's nothing I can do, ooh
When I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and it's
All because of you
[JOE]
And ooh, ooh, ooh, I didn't know what I was missin'
And ooh, ooh, ooh, that wasn't nothin' I was missin'
[ALL]
When I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and
Many headfuls
Of nasty, evil things
And I clutch my pillow tight
But a power beyond my bed pulls me to
Places where I ruminate
On nasty, evil things
And I try and try to clear my mind
But I find my mind's been intertwined
With gory thoughts
And there's nothing I can do, ooh
When I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and it's
All because of-
When I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and it's
All because of-
When I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and it's
All because of-
When I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and it's
All because of-
When I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and it's
All because of you!
[LANCE, spoken]
You did this to me!
[JOE, spoken]
You don't don't know what it's like in here!
Before I met you
Kittens were singin' in the trees
And mermaids were ticklin' my knees
And life was a lovely larp
Before I met you
Angels were feedin' me cherry pies
Until you opened up my eyes
To things most dark
Now when I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and

Of nasty, evil things
And I clutch my pillow tight
But a power beyond my bed pulls me to
Places where I ruminate
On nasty, evil things
And I try and try to clear my mind
But I find my mind's been intertwined
With gory thoughts
And there's nothing I can do, ooh
When I try to sleep at night I think of
Penny Dreadfuls and it's
