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 might be thinking "What a romp this is!"
But wait 'til you meet his accomplices
When you see Count Olaf
you're suddenly full of disgust and despair and dismay
In the whole of the soul of Count Olaf, there's no love
When you see Count Olaf, count to zero
Then scream and run away
Scream, scream, scream
And run away
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run
Or die, die, die, die
Die, die, die, die,
Run, 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
This evil and unpleasant crew
Completes Count Olaf's acting troupe
The goal of Count Olaf is getting control of
The fortune of urchins and orphans, hooray!
I mean, horrors! Count Olaf is no laughing matter
When you see Count Olaf, count to zero
Then scream and run away
Scream, scream, scream
And run away
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run
Or die, die, die, die
Die, die, die, die,
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Or die, die, die, die, die
Die, die, die, die, die, die
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 might be thinking "What a romp this is!"
But wait 'til you meet his accomplices
you're suddenly full of disgust and despair and dismay
In the whole of the soul of Count Olaf, there's no love
Then scream and run away
Scream, scream, scream
And run away
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run
Or die, die, die, die
Die, die, die, die,
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Or die, die, die, die, die
Die, die, die, die, die, die
And one long-nosed bald man with warts
Things worsen and worsen
There's a hook-handed person
And others with nastier parts
This evil and unpleasant crew
Completes Count Olaf's acting troupe
The fortune of urchins and orphans, hooray!
I mean, horrors! Count Olaf is no laughing matter
Then scream and run away
Scream, scream, scream
And run away
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run
Or die, die, die, die
Die, die, die, die,
Run, run, run, run
Run, run, run, run
Or die, die, die, die, die
Die, die, die, die, die, die

Great song. See the video on youtube. Lemony Snicket brought out an excellent side in Stephin Merritt.
I think the lyric is "the fortune of urchins and orphans, horray / I mean, horrors! Count Olaf is no laughing matter" The joke being that he says horray instead of horrors.
