[Verse]
Every twenty-seven years he wakes up from deep in his slumber
And he prays they drop their candy 'cause he's f*cking up on hunger
But what flocked out of the drain summoned by his chants and his whisper
Was something small and furry gazing back
[Chorus]
Pennywise just wanted friends
Dancing like a merry-go-round
Pennywise just wanted friends
Dancing like a merry-go-round
[Verse 2]
How he howled at the full moon
Counted stars and admired the midnight blue
Said he never thought he'd be the type of ghoul to love a dog
I guess
Even psychos need some love too
[Bridge]
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha-ha-ha
Ha-ha-ha yeah
[Chorus]
Pennywise just wanted friends
Dancing like a merry-go-round
Pennywise just wanted friends
Michelle saw what she thought was a monster
But he wore a fluffy pink collar
And the boys how they all held her hand
As they skipped down the road with the killer
Clown
(Instrumental Break)
[Bridge]
Haunted shop with a pink balloon
Haunted mall at 2 PM
Haunted the playground too
How the lights flickered as they went
Pennywise just wanted friends
How children smiled again
Pennywise just wanted friends
Dancing like a merry-go-round
[Chorus]
Pennywise just wanted friends
Dancing like a merry-go-round
Pennywise just wanted friends
Dancing like a merry-go-round
Chorus]
Pennywise just wanted friends
Dancing like a merry-go-round
Pennywise just wanted friends
Michelle saw what she thought was a monster
But he wore a fluffy pink collar
And the boys how they all held her hand
As they skipped down the road with the killer
Clown
