Poorjack Lyrics - Singles - Burton Tim

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, 

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 

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 

Sandy Claws, hmm
