** It's not just Jack's sense of ennui that makes the song hauntingly sad. It's the fact that nobody ''seems to understand'' what he's feeling (aside from Sally but they haven't had any scenes together yet). It's really disheartening to see Jack (who is essentially the Big Man on Campus of the town) talk about how his ennui and longing to do something different is something he can't really share with anyone.

The fame and praise come year after year does nothing for...these ''empty tears''.

* While it's mostly played for laughs, one can't help but feel sorry for Jack being unable to reach the monsters at the town meeting. He's just experienced something new and exciting, something that's making him feel a sense of joy and happiness he hasn't felt in a very long time. Yet no matter how hard he tries to describe the joy of Christmas, the monsters can only respond back with the same Halloween sensibilities as they do all year, every year. In the end, Jack resorts to describing Santa in the most terrifying manner possible just to keep their attention, but as the curtain falls behind him backstage, he still wonders how he can get them to see Christmas the same way he did.

** A minor one, but if you pay attention, the brother and sister who got the vampire duckie-on-wheels and the vampire doll ''eagerly'' played with them briefly before they attacked, meaning they still ''loved'' their toys even with the Halloween aesthetic. One wonders how many other children would have still enjoyed their Christmas if the Halloween toys were merely toys.

** The very idea that some of these children may ''never'' get over what happened that year. Even though Santa still managed to fix things, suffice it to say, they can still possibly be quite scarred for life and never be able to enjoy Christmas ever again.

That wasn't Santa's hat. That was Jack's jaw that the blast broke off. The actual Santa hat shows up before Jack goes off to save Christmas.

** Especially when you consider Santa's earlier line that there are "hardly any naughty kids this year." The one year he ''didn't'' have to punish anyone was the most traumatizing of all because some lunatic decided to hijack his holiday.

* The audio epilogue has a happy tears version: Santa reveals that he's the narrator, and after what happened, he became friends with Jack. While visiting regularly, he sees that Jack and Sally have started a family. Santa at one point asks Jack if he would do that Christmas all over again, knowing what he knew. Jack smiles and says wistfully, "[[WorthIt Wouldn't you]]?"
