Baudelaires ought to prevail,
and be tucked some place
all safe and sound.
Count Olaf captured and rotting in jail,
his henchpeople nowhere around.
But there’s no happy endings,
not here and not now,

and peace win the day,
but that’s not how the story goes.

and she thought well of me,

but now I’m alone as you can well see,
she’s cold in her grave forever.
There’s no happy endings,
not here and not now,
this tale is all sorrows and woes.
You might dream that justice
and peace win the day,
but that’s not how the story goes.

of ill-fitting pants,
and other dire, hideous clothes.

would lead pleasant lives,
but that’s not how the story goes.
Some people smile at the end of the day.
Some people laugh I suppose.
But to me there is nothing
but gloom and despair,
that’s just how the story goes.
That's just how the story goes.
