The Nightmare Before Christmas Lyrics |
|
The Nightmare Before Christmas is a musical animation and obviously it is vested with some of the most melodious tracks. Danny Elfman is mostly accredited with the tracks, which include eleven major songs. The songs are integral to the movie because besides providing the musical element,

they are also important for the plot development and comprehending the characters. The major The Nightmare Before Christmas Lyrics are:
- This is Halloween
- Jack Lament
- What’s This
- Town Meeting
- Jack Onsession
- Kidnap the Sandy Claws
- Making Christmas
- Oogie Boogie’s Song
- Sally’s Song
- Poor Jack
- Finale.
As we can make out from the title of the songs, they talk about important developments of the movie as they make us aware of the state of mind of the characters of the movie. Through the song “This is Halloween”, we for the first time get to know of the town, its strange residents and their features. “ Jack’s Lament” as the title suggests captures for us the frustration of the Pumpkin king owing to the monotony of the celebration in his town.
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.
The lyrics of the song “ Kidnap the Sandy Claws” is quite funny as we find Lock, Shock and Barrel planning and deciding amongst them how to execute the task. The Oogie Boogie’s Song describes the excitement and happiness of the residents of Halloween on receiving Santa Claus.
You're jokin', you're jokin'
I can't believe my eyes
You're jokin' me, you gotta be
This can't be the right guy
He's ancient, he's ugly
I don't know which is worse
I might just split a seam now
If I don't die laughing first.
The Sally’s Song and Making Christmas are also equally enthralling and captivating. Enjoy this festive season by humming The Nightmare Before Christmas Lyrics and celebrate this festive season with
