The Nightmare Before Christmas movie - Poor Jack lyrics

<br>

[JACK]<br>

What have I done?<br>

What have I done?<br>

How could I be so blind?<br>

All is lost, where was I?<br>

Spoiled all, spoiled all<br>

Everything's gone all wrong<br>

<br>

What have I done?<br>

What have I done?<br>

Find a deep cave to hide in<br>

In a million years they'll find me<br>

Only dust and a plaque<br>

That reads, "Here Lies Poor Old Jack"<br>

<br>

But I never intended all this madness, never<br>

And nobody really understood, how could they?<br>

That all I ever wanted was to bring them something great<br>

Why does nothing ever turn out like it should?<br>

<br>

Well, what the heck, I went and did my best<br>

And, by God, I really tasted something swell<br>

And for a moment, why, I even touched the sky<br>

And at least I left some stories they can tell, I did<br>

<br>

And for the first time since I don't remember when<br>

I felt just like my aold bony self again<br>

And I, Jack, the Pumpkin King<br>

That's right, I am the Pumpkin King, ha, ha, ha<br>

<br>

And I just can't wait until next Halloween<br>

'Cause I've got some new ideas <br>

that will really make them scream<br>

And, by Godm I'm really gonna give it all my might<br>

Uh oh, I hope there's still time to set things right<br>

sandy Claws, hmm<br>
