- - - Lyrics - - - Just look away, look away Look away, look away This show will wreck your evening, your whole life, and your day Every single episode is nothing but dismay, So look away Look away, look away Three children lose their home and go to live with someone awful, He tries to steal their fortune with a plot that's not quite lawful. It's hard to fathom how the orphans manage to live through it, Or how a decent person, like yourself, would even want to view it. Just look away, Look away, There's nothing but horror and inconvenience on the way Ask any stable person, "Should I watch?" and they will say: Look away, Look away, look away, Look away, look away- The Baudelaires are living with a man who studies snakes, He's jolly and he's secretive and makes a few mistakes. Spoiler alert! A villain comes to steal and murder, And so if I were you, I wouldn't even watch one minute further. The Baudelaires' new guardian is wracked by fear and panic, They end up on a boat that might as well be the Titanic. We polled a bunch of adults, 99% agree, There must be something happier on screen for you to see. The lumbermill is where the Baudelaires are forced to work, The eye doctor is sinister, the owner is a jerk. They end up in a fiendish plot with logs and hypnotism, They very thought of watching should be met with skepticism. Just look away, Look away, There's nothing but horror and inconvenience on the way Ask any stable person, "Should I watch?" and they will say: Look away, Look away, look away, Look away, look away- At school the Baudelaires are forced to live in an old shack, Comfort, joy and safety are among the things they lack. They run a lot of laps which keeps them in fantastic shape, But you're the one who ought to take this chance for an escape. The Baudelaires are taken in by people who are rich, But Olaf has a plan that's going off without a hitch. It's a race against the clock to rescue their two kidnapped friends, You'll need rescuing yourself before this grim tale ends. The town of V.F.D. is full of people full of rules, The Quagmires have once again been kidnapped for their jewels. The Baudelaires must rescue them but end up getting jailed, You might hope that things improve but I'm afraid that ship has sailed. The Baudelaires are hiding in a place crawling with doctors, Count Olaf's close behind them with his troupe of lousy äctors. Something dreadful happens with a big, sharp, rusty knife, So if I were you, I'd find some other way to spend your life. The Baudelaires are hiding in a carnival of freaks, Count Olaf is the worst he's been for more than several weeks. The lions in the Hinterlands are hungry and quite fierce, There is literally no program you can watch that is any wierse. Just look away, look away Look away, look away This show will wreck your evening, your whole life, and your day Every single episode is nothing but dismay, So look away Look away, look away- The Baudelaires are trapped in mountains covered up in snow, More villans have arrived and there is no place they can go. It's a horrid way to start up this, our third and final season, Anyone still watching it has clearly lost all reason. The Baudelaires are deep below the surface of the sea, Hoping to avoid Count Olaf's horrid company. But of course he finds them and of course it's very awful, this show is so grim it really ought to be unlawful. The Baudelaires check into a hotel to spy upon, A group of awful people for whom murder is a yawn. It may seem like Count Olaf will be finally brought to justice, But why would any viewers think that they could really trust us? The Baudelaires, adrift at sea, wash up far off the map, Olaf's right behind them with a fungus and a trap. Our story ends in tragedy upon a coastal shelf, I beg of you, I beg of you, stop watching save yourself. Just look away, Look away, There's nothing but horror and inconvenience on the way Ask any stable person, "Should I watch?" and they will say: Look away, Look away, look away, Look away, look away, Look away, look away, Look away, look away.
Yep, the series makes fun of many relatable things, including: - Anti-intellectualism (all the good guys are literary nerds, the bad guys are like the Arson Department thing from Fahrenheit 451 and all look down on the arts save a few really specific exceptions) - Condescending adults who fail to notice when a child is obviously being verbally and physically abused - United States marriage laws (we’re the only western country that allows ch1ld m@rriage to be forced by one’s parent/guardian) - Grammar nazis - Mistreatment of the working class - School - People who cannot play the violin but insist on doing so in front of an audience anyway despite that instrument’s steep learning curve - Upper-class urban American culture - Far-right religious extremists - Fake/heavily-biased news - Annoying hospital volunteers singing instead of just giving patients water

For some reason the OP makes me have a mental image (a peculiar characteristic I have is closing my eyes and composing a very detailed image in my mind or forming a writing from it): It's set in an abandoned house, dust covers every surface and the old greenish damask wallpaper is peeling off the walls. There's an old, grungy rusty automaton sitting on the roughed wooden floor against the wall. Suddenly a hand can be seen activating an old fork switch. The current instantly runs across the wires hanging on the wall and sparks can be seen coming from the back of the automaton. The lightbulbs in his eyes steadly start to brighten of an orange light, while the rickety contraption starts to trembling move and raise from the ground, producing metallic creakings, the distinctive "bang" of springs suddenly getting off tension, grinding of gears, clings and rattling of loose parts. Some bolts fall off while the flivvy automaton slowly thumps through the old mansion looking for the exit. Suddenly it has reached the exit, it's going to put its hand on the cloudy brass door handle when suddenly "crack", and then another "crack", and another until suddenly the floor collapses behind it, making it fall into the darkness of the basement, disappearing
I remeber watcging this show when is was 4 and i had memeories lf the show and i thought i should watch it again(im 11 and truneing 12 soon) im now on season 1 ep 7 i believe:D
I’m actually named after the girl named Violet and yes my name is Violet but I was born in 2016 which means I’m an eight-year-old right now in 2024 my birthday is March 20
He sings it differently in his disguise voices each time it’s a new plot
Only on the second episode of each one , never the first
The rhyme of fierce and "weirse" hurts me every time and yet here I am
Building of Doctors- Olaf and his Ahctors
I find it has boldness and charm
“The town of VFD is full of people full of rules” makes me roll my eyes
@@fantasticmrmonk a fix to this:
“The town of VFD is full of people scared of rules”
@@yeoldendummy7304 No he was right
@@TheRealKeiWilson he means "full of people scared of rules" would be better, so it's not repeated

This is the only song that can sound so amazing and cause you irreversible emotional pain at the same time

Just look away, look away
Look away, look away
This show will wreck your evening, your whole life, and your day
Every single episode is nothing but dismay,
So look away
Look away, look away
Three children lose their home and go to live with someone awful,
He tries to steal their fortune with a plot that's not quite lawful.
It's hard to fathom how the orphans manage to live through it,

He's jolly and he's secretive and makes a few mistakes.

I loved the show and the movie, but this one song is a masterpiece. I love it and I feel it describes real life a bit too closely
Wait, movie?
@@WisdomAndWar133 Yeah there was a movie in 2004.
Yep, the series makes fun of many relatable things, including:

- Condescending adults who fail to notice when a child is obviously being verbally and physically abused
- United States marriage laws (we’re the only western country that allows ch1ld m@rriage to be forced by one’s parent/guardian)

Alexa played this for me as a part of TV intro music. What a fuckin gem this is! Paints quite a story
A remake of this but with the disguised voices?
Love this one, my new ringtone
Look away look awayyyyy
So many brilliant lyrics in this, I couldn't even pick a few out to quote! :D
omg really love this full version
I want to make a cover of this but sadly no instrumental
You sound so much like Neil Patrick Harris omg
This is the best mix and it's a
ALOT more smooth,

The last names of the orphans got captioned to be bold layers ;-;

It's left ambiguous, like most of the people at the hotel.
I'm pretty confident she did considering she and Carmelita went to the source of the fire in order to retrieve the sugar bowl.
