:06:03
There are few who deny
at what I do I am the best

:06:07
For my talents
are renowned far and wide

:06:11
When it comes to surprises
in the moonlit night

:06:15
I excel without ever even trying
:06:19
With the slightest little effort
:06:21
Of my ghost-like charms
:06:24
I have seen grown men
give out a shriek

:06:28
With a wave of my hand
and a well-placed moan

:06:32
I have swept the very bravest
off their feet

:06:36
Yet year after year
:06:39
It's the same routine
:06:41
And I grow so weary
of the sound of screams

:06:46
And l, Jack
the Pumpkin King

:06:51
Have grown so tired
of the same old thing

:06:59
Oh, somewhere deep
:07:02
Inside of these bones
:07:05
An emptiness
:07:08
Began to grow
:07:11
There's something out there
:07:14
Far from my home
:07:17
A longing that
:07:20
I've never known
:07:26
I'm the master of fright
:07:29
And a demon of light
:07:31
And I'll scare you
right out of your pants

:07:35
To a guy in Kentucky
I'm Mr. Unlucky

:07:39
And I'm known throughout
England and France

:07:43
And since I am dead
I can take off my head

:07:47
To recite Shakespearean quotations
:07:51
No animal nor man
can scream like I can

:07:56
With the fury
of my recitations
