Kittens were singin' in the trees, mermaids were ticklin' my knees...





B Movie Nightmare Tee - Threadless

The PERFECT match for the song I'm posting...so of course it's completely sold out. :| If you like it though, you can request a reprint!

Joe Iconis - Penny Dreadfuls
(Performed by Joe, Jason SweetTooth Wiliams, and Lance Rubin)

Oh hot damn, this is my jam. I typed out the lyrics cos I want to learn them:


before i met you
kittens were singin' in the trees
mermaids were ticklin' my knees
& life was a lovely lark

before i met you
angels would feed 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 nothin
i can dooo
oooo

when i try to sleep at night
i think of
penny dreadfuls
and its all
because of you

before i met you
i never dropped or popped no pills
i wasn't all hopped up on no chills
and life was stars and dreams
sometimes id like to
go back to the way things used to be
but then you took a holda me
and i need to smell those scars and hear those screams

now when i try to sleep at night
i think of
penny dreadfuls
and
many heafuls
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 aint nothin
i can dooo
oooo

when i try to sleep at night
i think of
penny dreadfuls
and its all
because of you

and oo oo oo
i didnt know what i was missin
and oo ooo oo
that wasn't nothing i was (missin? again?)


now when i try to sleep at night
i think of
penny dreadfuls
and
many headfulls
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 nothin
i can dooo
oooo

when i try to sleep at night
i think of
penny dreadfuls
and its all
because of

when i try to sleep at night
i think of
penny dreadfuls
and its all
because of

when i try to sleep at night
i think of
penny dreadfuls
and its all
because of

when i try to sleep at night
i think of
penny dreadfuls
and its all
because of

YOU
