If a bear runs at you in the woods, donβt run away. Look it deep in the eyes, put your hand on its chest, and say βBear, Iβm not afraid!β
— Paula, "I Hope Josh Comes to My Party!"
Face Your Fears was a song sung by Paula Proctor who was trying to get Rebecca to throw a party in order to get some quality time with Josh away from Valencia. She had learned about Rebecca's traumatic past concerning parties but eventually managed to convince her to face her fears. The song's first appearance was in the Season One episode 'I Hope Josh Comes to My Party!".
Face Your Fears (feat. Donna Lynne Champlin) - "Crazy Ex-Girlfriend"
Lyrics:
Ssshβ¦
I used to be afraid
Of so much in this world.
Iβd tiptoe through each day, like some
Frightened little girl.
Then one day I realized I canβt just
Run and hide from life.
Now if someone pulls a gun on me
I pull out my knife!
(I donβt follow.)
Sit on my lap like Iβm Santa and listen to me.
Face your fears.
Stare them down.
Donβt be scared.
Stand your ground.
βCause nothing is as scary
As it appears.
All you gotta do
Is face your fears.
(Okay, I think Iβm starting to get it--)
If a bear runs at you in the woods,
Donβt run away.
(Yeah, Iβm back here, sing to me.)
Look it deep in the eyes,
Put your hand on its chest, and say
βBear, Iβm not afraid!β
(Well thatβs just dangerous.)
If youβre in a burning building,
And smoke is everywhere,
Keep calm, take a deep breath,
And stay right there!
(Thatβs not how smoke or fire works.)
Sshβ¦
Face your fears!
Run with scissors!
(Whoa.)
βCause you can fly,
Yes, you can fly.
Fly out of a window.
(Who are you singing to?)
Fly off a building!
Just believe in yourself,
Face your fears!
(Okay, I have so many problems with--)
βCause the children are the future!
Aaahhh!
Face your fears!
(Face your fears!)
(Oh my God.)
Follow your dreams!
(Follow your dreams!)
Stare at the sun!
(Stare at the sun!)
Play in the street!
(A busy street!)
If youβre scared of bees
(If youβre scared of bees)
Get stung!
(Donβt have an EpiPen ready!)
Reach for the stars!
(Literally touch a star)
Face your fears!
(Stars arenβt that hot!)
Face your fears!
(Face your fears!)
Join the Marines!
( Join the Marines!)
Swim right after eating!
(Donβt wait 30 minutes!)
βCause you are amazing!
(So amazing!)
Wipe back to front!
(Donβt wipe front to back!)
Drop out of school!
(School is stupid)
All you gotta doooooβ¦
(Is face my fears?)
Is face your
(Fears, I got it)
Feeeeeeeeeeears!
(Aaaaaaah)
