A Penny, Revisited Lyrics by Pulp Musicals

A Penny, Revisited

2025

[BENJAMIN, (BENJAMIN + Chorus)]
Should I be happy?
Should I stay angry?
Should I be wary of this lifeline that’s been offered to me
A change of fortune
A twist of fate
A single fire burning
When the hour is getting late
Was this you?
Stratford twins, tell me what the joke is
I’ve already had my fair share of hoaxes
I’m not a hero, I made my own bed
I could’ve seen the world but I blew up my bridges instead
Discontented when I should have waited
Imagination is complicated
Samuel, Rose, the things that I would say
If the two of you were standing here today
There’s life upon the moon. (Wow!)
(How wild and controversial)
The Stratford twins are famous now
(Who knew they knew John Herschel?)
All of us were actors
On the planet’s biggest stage
But where was my applause
When it went on the front page?
Then I stood up for what was true
It felt wrong, but you were too
There were days I hated you
So why do I deserve this
I abandoned the ones who believed in me the most
If I’m to be redeemed
Who will forgive me but ghosts
No one could have written it any better
So I suppose I’ll follow it to the letter
Oh, my friends
Hear me when I say
I wish you were here today
[THOMAS, spoken]
I’m sorry Benjamin. Let me prove to you that I’m a changed man
[BENJAMIN, spoken]
What a difference two years makes
[THOMAS, spoken]
Yes. You can still get a copy of The New York Sun for just a penny. Come, are you going to turn down the next mayor of New York City?
[BENJAMIN, spoken]
I thought you wanted to be president
[THOMAS, spoken]
Well. You have to start somewhere. So what do you say?
[BENJAMIN, spoken]
I’d say… It’s a capital idea
