JACK LAMENT
JACK
There are few who deny, at what I do I am the best
For my talents are rnowned far and wide
When it comes to surprises in the moonlit night
I excel without ever even trying
With the slightest little effort of my ghostlike charms
I have see grown men give out a shriek
With a wave of my hand and a well-placed moan
I have swept the very bravest off their feet
Yet year after year, it's the same routine
And I grow so weary of the sound of screams
And I, Jack, the Pumpkin King
Have grown so tired of the same old thing
Oh, somewhere deep inside of these bones
An emptiness began to grow
There's something out there, far from my home
A longing that I've never known
I'm a master of fright and a demon of light
And I'll scare you right out of your pants
To a guy in Kentucky, I'm Mister Unlucky
And I'm known throughout England and France
And since I am dead, I can take off my head
To recite Shakespearean quotations
No animal nor man can scream like I can
With the fury of my recitations
But who here would ever understand
That the Pumpkin King with the skeleton grin
Would tire of his crown, if they only understood
He'd give it all up if he only could
Oh, there's an empty place in my bones
That calls out for something unknown
The fame and praise come year after year
Does nothing for these empty tears
SALLY'S SONG
SALLY
I sense there's something in the wind
That feels like tragedy's at hand
And though I'd like to stand by him
Can't shake this feeling that I have
The worst is just around the bend
And does he notice my feelings for him?
And will he see how much he means to me?
I think it's not to be
What will become of my dear friend?
Where will his actions lead us then?
Although I'd like to join the crowd
In their enthusiastic cloud
Try as I may, it doesn't last
And will we ever end up together?
no, I think not, it's never to become
For I am not the one
FINALE
CHORUS
La, la, la (etc)
Jack's OK, and he's back, OK
CORPSE KID & CHORUS
He's all right
MAYOR & CHORUS
Let's shout, make a fuss
Scream it out, wheee
CHORUS
Jack is back now, everyone sing
In our town of Halloween
CORPSE KID
What's this?
MUMMY
What's this?
HARLEQUIN DEMON
I haven't got a clue
MR. HYDE
What's this?
CLOWN
What it's completely new
OFF-SCREEN VOICE
What's this?
WEREWOLF
Must be a Christmas thing
OFF-SCREEN VOICE
What's this?
MAYOR
It's really very strange
CHORUS
This is Halloween
Halloween! Halloween! Halloween!
What's this?
What's this?
[Repeat]
JACK
My dearest friend, if you don't mind
I'd like to join you by your side
Where we can gaze into the stars
JACK & SALLY
And sit together, now and forever
For it is plain as anyone can see
We're simply meant to be
