The Nightmare Before Christmas - Whats This (Lyrics) MovieClips 2013-09-22 | What's ThisA song from The Nightmare Before ChristmasDirected by Henry SelickTurn On the Subtitles for the Lyrics (and Enjoy)LyricsWhat's this? What's this? There's color everywhereWhat's this? There's white things in the airWhat's this? I can't believe my eyesI must be dreamingWake up, jack, this isn't fairWhat's this?What's this? What's this? There's something very wrongWhat's this? There are people singing songsWhat's this? The streets are lined withLittle creatures laughingEverybody seems so happyHave I possibly gone daffy? What is this? What's this?There are children throwing snowballs hereinstead of throwing headsThey're busy building toysAnd absolutely no one's deadThere's frost on every windowOh, I can't believe my eyesAnd in my bones I feel the warmthThat's coming from insideOh, lookWhat's this? They're hanging mistletoe, they kissWhy that looks so unique, inspiredThey're gathering around to hear a storyRoasting chestnuts on a fireWhat's this? What's this?In here they've got a little tree, how queerAnd who would ever thinkAnd why?They're covering it with tiny little thingsThey've got electric lights on stringsAnd there's a smile on everyoneSo, now, correct me if I'm wrongThis looks like funThis looks like funOh, could it be I got my wish? What's this?Oh my, what now? The children are asleepBut look, there's nothing underneathNo ghouls, no witches here to scream and scare themOr ensnare them, only little cozy thingsSecure inside their dreamlandWhat's this?The monsters are all missingAnd the nightmares can't be foundAnd in their place there seems to beGood feeling all aroundInstead of screams, I swearI can hear music in the airThe smell of cakes and piesAre absolutely everywhereThe sights, the soundsThey're everywhere and all aroundI've never felt so good beforeThis empty place inside of me is filling upI simply cannot get enoughI want it, oh, I want itOh, I want it for my ownI've got to knowI've got to knowWhat is this place that I have found? What is this? Christmas Town, hmm...

I cannot tellThere are so many things I cannot graspWhen I think I've got, and then at lastThrough my bony fingers it does slipLike a snowflake in a fiery gripSomething's here I'm not quite gettingThough I try, I keep forgettingLike a memory long since pastHere in an instant and gone in a flashWhat does it mean?What does it mean?In these little bric-a-bracA secret's waiting to be crackedThese dolls and toys confuse me soConfound it all, I love it thoughSimple objects, nothing moreBout something's hidden through a doorThough I do not have the keySomething's there I cannot seeWhat does it mean?What does it mean?What does it mean?Hmm...I've read their Christmas books so many timesI k now the stories and I know the rhymesI know the Christmas carols all by heartMy skull's so full, it's tearing me apartAs often as I've read them, something's wrongSo hard to put my bony finger onOr perhaps it's not as deep As I've been led to thinkAm I trying much too hard?Of course! I've been too close to seeThe answer's right in front of meRight in front of meIt's simple really, very clearLike music drifting in the airInvisible, but everywhereJust because I cannot see itDoesn't mean I can't believe itYou know, I think this Christmas thingIs not as tricky as it seemsAnd why should they have all the fun?It should belong to anyoneNot anyone, in fact, but meWhy, I could make a Christmas treeAnd there's no reason I can findI couldn't handle Christmas timeI bet I could improve it tooAnd that's exactly what I'll doHee, hee, heeEureka!

The Nightmare Before Christmas - Jack Lament (Lyrics) MovieClips 2013-09-21 | Jack LamentA song from The Nightmare Before ChristmasDirected by Henry SelickTurn On the Subtitles for the Lyrics (and Enjoy)LyricsThere are few can who deny, at what I do I am the bestFor my talents are renowned far and wideWhen it comes to surprises in the moonlit nightI excel without ever even tryingWith the slightest little effort of my ghostlike charmsI have see grown men give out a shriekWith a wave of my hand and a well-placed moanI have swept the very bravest off their feetYet year after year, it's the same routineAnd I grow so weary of the sound of screamsAnd I, Jack, the Pumpkin KingHave grown so tired of the same old thingOh, somewhere deep inside of these bonesAn emptiness began to growThere's something out there, far from my homeA longing that I've never knownI'm a master of fright and a demon of lightAnd I'll scare you right out of your pantsTo a guy in Kentucky, I'm Mister UnluckyAnd I'm known throughout England and FranceAnd since I am dead, I can take off my headTo recite Shakespearean quotationsNo animal nor man can scream like I canWith the fury of my recitationsBut who here would ever understand That the Pumpkin King with the skeleton grinWould tire of his crown, if they only understoodHe'd give it all up if he only couldOh, there's an empty place in my bonesThat calls out for something unknownThe fame and praise come year after yearDoes nothing for these empty tears
