"Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams" is a song by the British band Tears for Fears, originally appearing as the B-side to their 1990 single "Advice for the Young at Heart". The song was later remixed by producer/DJ Fluke and released as a single 1991.

Although still a Tears for Fears track, the Fluke remix single was credited only as "Johnny Panic and the Bible of Dreams".

The title of the song is taken from a short story by the American writer Sylvia Plath, which was the title story in a collection of her short stories posthumously published in 1977.
