| 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 |
