Poor Jack Lyrics

Poor Jack lyrics

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 - *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,
ah, 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 gonna give it all my might!**

 ... Uh-oh... I hope there's still time to set things right...

 ... Santy Claws, hmm...

 

 *Sing with much emotion - deep voice

 **Sing with more emotion - deep voice
