Patrick Stewart - Opening (The Nightmare Before Christmas) Lyrics

'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.
