      When I was a kid, I thought he was going to be scary and cruel. I was very surprised that he was kind and polite, but I instantly loved him. My favorite character from the movie.

    I think the writers made Jack say things like that intentionally just to confuse us.

    Lyrics:
    Listen, everyone
    There were objects so peculiar,
    They were not to be believed
    All around, things to tantalise my brain,
    It's a world unlike
    Anything I've ever seen
    And as hard as I've tried
    I can't seem to describe
    Like a most improbable dream
    But you must believe when I tell you this
    It's as real as my skull and it does exist.
    Here, let me show you
    This is a thing called a present
    The whole thing starts with a box
    (A box? Is it steel?)
    (Are there locks?)
    (Is it filled with a pox?)
    (A pox? how delightful a pox)
    If you please.
    Just a box with bright coloured paper
    And the whole things topped with a bow
    (A bow? but why?)
    (How ugly)
    (What's in it, what's in it?)
    That's the point of the thing not to know!
    (It's a bat)
    (Will it bend?)
    (It's a rat)
    (Will it break?)
    (Perhaps it s the head that I found in the lake)
    Listen now you dont understand
    That's not the point of Christmas land!
    Now pay attention.
    We pick up an oversized sock
    And hang it, like this, on a wall
    (Oh yes, does it still have foot?)
    (Let me see, let me look?)
    (Is it rotted and covered in gook?)
    Um, let me explain
    There's no foot inside, but there's candy
    Or sometimes it's filled with small toys
    (Small toys?)
    (Do they bite, do they snap, or explode in the sack?)
    (Or perhaps they just jump out and scare girls and boys!)
    (What a splendid idea, this Christmas sounds fun)
    (I fully endorse it, let's try it at once!)
    Everyone please, now not so fast
    There's something here that you don't quite grasp
    Well, we may as well give them what they want.
    And the best, I must confess
    I have saved for the last,
    For the ruler of this Christmas land
    Is a fearsome king with a deep mighty voice
    Least, thats what I have come to understand
    And I've also heard it told that he is
    Something to behold
    Like a lobster huge and red
    And he sets out a sleigh with his reindeer on
    Carting bulging sacks with his big, great arms
    That is so I've heard it said
    And on a dark, cold night
    Under full moonlight
    He flies into the fog
    Like a vulture in the sky
    And they call him
    Sandy Claws
    Well at least they're excited
    But they dont understand
    That special kind of feeling
    In Christmas land
    Oh well

      Chris Sarandon is the speaking role for Jack Skellington, however, his singing voice is actually performed by Danny Elfman himself. Thats the guy who composed the music for this and other Tim Burton films. Cool, right?

    This scenario is what it feels like when you’re absent ONE DAY from school…. A group project worth 35% of your grade is announced…and your partners were chosen by the teacher…Jack is one of your partners…has no clue…but you run with it…because Jack is so confident & passionate…. Only on presentation day do you learn how wrong, wrong, wrong you were to trust Jack!!!! 🤣🤣🤣😂😂😂🤣🤣😂🤣

Oh my God Jack…you said creativity had the biggest portion of the grade JACK…. I got stared at by perfect strangers waiting for the bus…today…. People ON THE BUS made fun of me!!!! IT’S NOT LIKE IT’S SPIRIT WEEK YOU Jerk!” 😅😂😂🤣🤣🤣😂🤣😂
