Andy's Lament Performed by Kevin Bacon

TITLE CARD: Oswald: the Movie

Andy: There are few who'd deny, at what I do I am the best For my talents are renowned far and wide

Andy: When it comes to surprises in the moonlit night I excel without ever even trying

Fiona: With the slightest little effort of my ghostlike charms I have seen grown men give out a shriek With the waiting her hand, and a well-placed moan I have swept the very bravest off their feet

Andy: Yet year after year, it's the same routine And I grow so weary of the sound of screams And I, Andy, the Pumpkin Have grown so tired of the same old thin

Andy: 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

Andy: I'm the master of fright, and a demon of light And I'll scare you right out of your pants To a guy in Kentucky, I'm Mr. Unlucky And I'm known throughout England and France

Andy: And since I HAD SHOES, I can take off my socks To sing Shakespearean quotations No animal nor man can scream like I can With the fury of my recitations

Andy: But who here would ever understand That the Pumpkin with the pumpkin grin Would tire of his crown, if they only understood He'd give it all up if he only could

Andy: But who here would ever understand That the Pumpkin with the pumpkin grin Would tire of his crown, if they only understood He'd give it all up if he only could

Andy: Oh, there's an empty place in my bones That calls out for something unknown The fame and praise come year after year Does nothing for these empty tears.
