Halloween Song(Jack Lament)

Jack Lament (Video: Jack's Lament)

1. There are few who deny, at what I do I am the best

2. For my talents are rnowned far and wide

3. When it comes to surprises in the moonlit night

4. I excel without ever even trying

5. With the slightest little effort of my ghostlike charms

6. I have see grown men give out a shriek

7. With a wave of my hand and a well-placed moan

8. I have swept the very bravest off their feet

9. Yet year after year, it's the same routine

10. And I grow so weary of the sound of screams

11. And I, Jack, the Pumpkin King

12. Have grown so tired of the same old thing

13. Oh, somewhere dep inside of these bones

14. An emptiness began to grow

15. There's something out there, far from my home

16. A longing that I've never known

17. I'm a master of fright and a demon of light

18. And I'll scare you right out of your pants

19. To a guy in Kentucky, I'm Mister Unlucky

20. And I'm known throughout England and France


21. And since I am dead, I can take off my head

22. To recite Shakespearean quotations

23. No animal nor man can scream like I can

24. With the fury of my recitations

25. But who here would ever understand

26. That the Pumpkin King with the skeleton grin

27. Would tire of his crown, if they only understood

28. He'd give it all up if he only could


29. Oh, there's an empty place in my bones

30. That calls out for something unknown

31. The fame and praise come year after year

32. Does nothing for these empty
