	Poor Jack

	Performed by Danny Elfman
	What have I done?
	What have I done?
	How could I be so blind?
	All is lost, where was I?
	Spoiled all, spoiled all
	Everything's gone all wrong
	What have I done?
	What have I done?
	Find a deep cave to hide in
	In a million years they'll find me
	Only dust and a plaque
	That reads, 'Here Lies Poor Old Jack"
	But I never intended all this madness, never
	And nobody really understood, well how could they?
	That all I ever wanted was to bring them something great
	Why does nothing ever turn out like it should?
	Well, what the heck, I went and did my best
	And, by god, I really tasted something swell
	And for a moment, why, I even touched the sky
	And at least I left some stories they can tell, I did
	And for the first time since I don't remember when
	I felt just like my old bony self again
	And I, Jack, the Pumpkin King
	That's right! I am the Pumpkin King, ha, ha, ha, ha
	And I just can't wait until next Halloween
	'Cause I've got some new ideas that will really make them scream
	And, by God, I'm really going to give it all my might
	Uh oh, I hope there's still time to set things right
	Sandy Claws, hmm
