Baudelaire Memorial Orchestra Scream And Run Away Lyrics

Scream And Run Away Lyrics

The Count has an eye on his ankle, 

And lives in a horrible place.

He wants all your money, he's never at all funny.

He wants to remove your face.

And you mightbe thinking what a rump this is,

But wait till you meet his accomplices.



When you see Count Olaf, you're suddenly full of

Disgust and dispair and dismay.

In the halls of the soul of Count Olaf

Has no love, when you see Count Olaf, count to zero...

Then scream and run away.



Scream, scream, scream, then run away.

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run,

Or die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die.

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run,

Or die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die.



Two women with powdered-white faces.

And one long nosed bald man with warts.

Things worsen and worsen, there's a hook-handed person

And others with nastier parts.

There's evil and unpleasent truth:

At least Count Olaf's acting true



The goal of Count Olaf is getting control of 

The fortunes of urchins and orphans who cry.

And these horrors by Count Olaf are no laughing matter.

When you see Count Olaf, count to zero...

Then scream, and run away.



Scream, scream, scream, then run away.

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run,

Or die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die.

Run, run, run, run, run, run, run,

Or die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die.
