Now here is the thing Halloween is supposedly a special holiday for children and they
are allowed to dress up as witches, demons, zombies, killer clowns for this one night
of the year. The rest of the year their parents protect them from these very things by
not allowing them to play violent video games , or watch scary movies on TV.
The care and concern that is observed the rest of the year is let slip and the things
that we try to protect children from on Halloween is actively encouraged.
Seems a bit hypocritical. What's a kid to think?
I have sung this song once before and the majority opinion was that I was being a spoil sport.
Apparently Halloween is a much loved holiday in America especially for children, and it seems
to have been exported all over the world... perhaps it is cynical to believe that it is just another
marketing ploy to get people to cram and fill their lives full of more rubbish, for even now the
supermarkets are awash with all sorts of junk associated with Halloween.
