Donna Lynne Champlin - Face Your Fears lyrics

[Paula Proctor, played by Donna Lynne Champlin] I used to be afraid of so much in this world I'd tiptoe through each day like some frightened little girl Then one day I realized I can't just run and hide from life Now if someone pulls a gun on me, I pull out my knife [Rebecca Bunch, played by Rachel Bloom, speaking] I don't follow... [Paula, speaking] Sit on my lap like I'm Santa and listen to me: [Paula] Face your fears Stare them down Don't be scared Stand your ground Cause nothing is scary as it appears All you gotta do is face your fears [Rebecca, speaking] Ok, I think I'm starting to get it, wha– [Paula] If a bear runs at you in the woods, don't run away [Rebecca, speaking] Yeah, I'm back here, sing to me Look it deep in the eyes, put your hand on its chest and say “Bear, I'm not afraid!” [Rebecca, speaking] Well, that's just dangerous If you're in a burning building and smoke is everywhere Keep calm, take a deep breath, and stay right there [Rebecca, speaking] That's not how smoke or fire works [Paula] (Sssh.) Face your fears Run with scissors [Rebecca, speaking] Whoa! [Paula] Cause you can fly Yes, you can fly Fly out of a window [Rebecca, speaking] Who are you singing to? [Paula] Fly off a building Just believe in yourself Face your fears [Rebecca, speaking] OK, I have so many problems with— [Paula] Cause the children are the future [Chorus of children] (Aaaah!) Face your fears (Face your fears) [Rebecca, speaking] Oh my god [Paula & Chorus of children] Follow your dreams (Follow your dreams) Stare at the sun (Stare at the sun) Play in the streets (A busy street) If you're scared of bees (If you're scared of bees) Get stung! (Don't have an EpiPen ready) Reach for the stars (Literally touch the stars) Face your fears! (Stars aren't that hot) Face your fears (Face your fears) Join the Marines (Join the Marines) Swim right after eating (Don't wait 30 minutes) Cause you are amazing (So amazing) Wipe back to front (Don't wipe front to back) Drop out of school (School is stupid) All you gotta dooooooooooo [Rebecca, speaking] Is face my fears? [Paula] Is face your [Rebecca, speaking] Fears, I got it [Paula & Chorus of children] Fears, yeah! (Aaaaaah)
