Opening Lyrics by Patrick Stewart

The Nightmare Before Christmas (Special Edition)

1993

'Twas a long time ago
Longer now than it seems
In a place that perhaps you've seen in your dreams
For the story that you are about to be told
Began with the holiday worlds of old
Now, you've probably wondered where holidays come from
If you haven't, I'd say, it's time you begun
For the holidays are a result of much fuss and hard work
For the worlds that create them for us
Well, you see now, quite simply that's all that they do
Making one unique holiday especially for you
But once a calamity ever so great occurred
When two holidays met by mistake
