Narration by Patrick Stewart 



And finally, everything worked out just fine. 

Christmas was saved, though there wasn’t much
time. 

But after that night, things were never the
same-- 

Each holiday now knew the other one’s name. 



And though that one Christmas things got out of
hand, 

I’m still rather fond of that skeleton man. 



So, many years later I thought I’d drop in, 

And there was old Jack still looking quite thin,


With four or five skeleton children at hand 

Playing strange little tunes in their xylophone
band. 



And I asked old Jack, “Do you remember the
night 

When the sky was so dark and the moon shone so
bright? 

When a million small children pretending to sleep


Nearly didn’t have Christmas at all, so to
speak? 

And would, if you could, turn that mighty clock
back, 

To that long, fateful night. Now, think
carefully, Jack. 

Would you do the whole thing all over again, 

Knowing what you know now, knowing what you knew
then?” 



And he smiled, like the old pumpkin king that I
knew, 

Then turned and asked softly of me, “Wouldn’t
you?”
