Jenny the Penny, Electronic Peasant

​Jenny the Penny lived on a riverboat made of bones
in a haunted river called Jimmy's River
by a city made of bats and spooky castles
You might think this is Halloween Time
but you would be mistaken
It was Apprehension Street
where teens had fun until they didn't
and one woman
Jenny the Penny
stood against unspeakable evil
evil so bad
you couldn't speak it
unspeakable
Jenny loved everything except the Evil
She knew how to climb, how to flip, how to kick
She jumped on top of a racing bus
and felt the sweet night wind
blowing up her nostrils
Apprehension Street was a fun, dangerous place
every party was weird at some point

Jenny the Penny played the chainsaw guitar
Everyone would be drinking sweet punch and 
dairy lemonade
and they'd say
"Pull out the saw, Jenny!"
So Jenny would whip out Henny, her chainsaw guitar
and go to town on that thing
It sounded like electric death
which was perfect
because Jenny had a battery
she was an android

she loved to wail on the chainsaw guitar
eardrums would explode
and Silly Steve would slap a fresh hamsteak
and holler like a relaxed goat
from the back of the room
where the sweaty old helicopter seats were

Jenny was an electronic peasant
and life was a bag of defective clam juice
even relaxed goats had a better life than her

when she wasn't at a scary weird party on 
Apprehension Street
Jenny was working in the hot dog factory 
that was constantly on fire
You never knew where the next fire would be

One time Jenny was eating a tomato in the break room
and the tomato exploded into a fire snack
very unpleasant
Jenny had to get a new face
She got one for ten bucks at the corner store
ten bucks was a lot for a new face

Jenny the Penny never slept
she practiced chainsaw guitar all night
in the basement of the hot dog factory
Only Gentle Gary, the night manager, knew she was down there
and he would watch her from a muddy window
and gobble up the delicious punk noise
like his mother's marshmallow snowman cookies
