This song is based on The Wide Window, the third book from A Series of Unfortunate Events. It is from the point of view of Aunt Josephine, and outlines her many irrational fears.
[Verse 1]
The world is a very scary place, my dear
It's hurled and it's twirled through outer space, I fear
So many ways to lose your skin in it
The number of ways to die is infinite
[Verse 2]
The world is a very scary thing, I find
It's curled all my toes and it's curling my mind
When I was young, my study was candies
But they attract tarantulas and bees
[Bridge]
Some people act as if there were nothing wrong
Due to the fact they haven't heard this song
[Verse 3]
The world is a very scary place to go
It's whirled and it's swirled with death like lace, you know
You may have found my views unorthodox
But now the wolf is at the door, it knocks
