The Gothic Archies is the Gothic rock-bubblegum pop band of celebrated songwriter Stephin Merritt, also of The Magnetic Fields, The 6ths, and Future Bible Heroes. Merritt is the only member although he hopes to acquire more soon.
What makes this band different from The Magnetic Fields is that any glimmer of hope is absolutely extinguished.

AmG The Count has an eye on his ankle, DmE And lives in a horrible place. AmG He wants all your money, he's never at all funny. DmE He wants to remove your face. CG And you might be thinking what a rump this is, CG But wait till you meet his accomplices.
AmG When you see Count Olaf, you're suddenly full of DmE Disgust and dispair and dismay. AmG In the halls of the soul of Count Olaf DmE(hold) Has no love, when you see Count Olaf, count to zero... no chords AmG Then scream and run away.
Am(once)G(once)Dm(once) E(once) Am Scream, scream, scream, then run away. AmG Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, DmE Or die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die. AmG Run, run, run, run, run, run, run, run, DmEAmGDmE Or die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die, die.
AmG Two women with powdered-white faces. DmE And one long nosed bald man with warts. AmE Things worsen and worsen, there's a hook-handed person DmE And others with nastier parts. CG This evil and unpleasant group CG Complete's Count Olaf's acting troupe
AmG The goal of Count Olaf is getting control of DmE The fortunes of urchins and orphans hooray! AmG I mean horrors! Count Olaf is no laughing matter. DmE(hold) When you see Count Olaf, count to zero...
no chords AmG Then scream and run away.
