[00:05.63] (CITIZENS OF HALLOWEEN)Something's up with Jack
[00:06.87] Something's up with Jack
[00:11.02] Don't know if we're ever going to get him back
[00:16.30] He's all alone up there
[00:17.79] Locked away inside
[00:22.03] Never says a word
[00:23.18] Hope he hasn't died
[00:24.50] Something's up with Jack
[00:25.79] Something's up with Jack
[00:31.13]
[00:35.80] (JACK)Christmas time is buzzing in my skull
[00:38.94] Will it let me be? I cannot tell
[00:41.93] There are so many things I cannot grasp
[00:45.27] When I think I've got it, and then at last
[00:48.38] Through my bony fingers it does slip
[00:51.52] Like a snowflake in a fiery grip
[00:54.36] Something's here I'm not quite getting
[00:56.20] Though I try, I keep forgetting
[00:57.89] Like a memory long since past
[01:01.38] Here in an instant, gone in a flash
[01:03.32] What does it mean?
[01:04.11] What does it mean?
[01:06.85] In these little bric-a-brac
[01:08.49] A secret's waiting to be cracked
[01:10.21] These dolls and toys confuse me so
[01:12.10] Confound it all, I love it though
[01:14.79] Simple objects, nothing more
[01:16.59] But something's hidden through a door
[01:18.54] Though I do not have the key
[01:22.02] Something's there I cannot see
[01:23.76] What does it mean?
[01:24.61] What does it mean?
[01:27.94] What does it mean?
[01:30.43] Hmm...
[01:34.52] I've read these Christmas books so many times
[01:37.61] I know the stories and I know the rhymes
[01:40.69] I know the Christmas carols all by heart
[01:43.53] My skull's so full, it's tearing me apart
[01:47.01] As often as I've read them, something's wrong
[01:50.05] So hard to put my bony finger on
[01:52.79] Or perhaps it's really not as deep
[01:55.18] As I've been led to think
[01:56.68] Am I trying much too hard?
[02:00.01] Of course! I've been too close to see
[02:01.80] The answer's right in front of me
[02:03.94] Right in front of me
[02:05.39] It's simple really, very clear
[02:07.19] Like music drifting in the air
[02:09.13] Invisible, but everywhere
[02:12.62] Just because I cannot see it
[02:14.46] Doesn't mean I can't believe it
[02:17.10] You know, I think this Christmas thing
[02:18.89] It's not as tricky as it seems
[02:20.74] And why should they have all the fun?
[02:22.48] It should belong to anyone
[02:24.28] Not anyone, in fact, but me
[02:26.17] Why, I could make a Christmas tree
[02:27.91] And there's no reason I can find
[02:29.55] I couldn't handle Christmas time
[02:31.49] I bet I could improve it too
[02:33.28] And that's exactly what I'll do
[02:37.12] Hee,hee,hee
[02:38.92] Eureka! I've got it
[00:05.63] CITIZENS OF HALLOWEEN Something' s up with Jack
[00:06.87] Something' s up with Jack
