It's not a holiday unless you get the day off from work. Otherwise, its basically "remember that capitalism is more important than whatever you are remembering" day. In this case, it's more important that we make money than remember the people who died from 9/11.
It's not a real holiday until people who work in an office get the day off. (Sorry to the folks in customer service roles, but I appreciate your sacrifice.)
What’s this, what’s this? They’re flying through the air. What’s this, what’s this? They’re jumping over there What’s this, what’s this? Everybody seams to screem Oh I’m delighted at the seams Could this be another dream? What’s this?!
Now look in hear, they’re gathering in fear How queer! And who would ever think Just why The sounds of planes go crashing Everybody keeps on dashing While all the windshields are smashing what’s this?
The children scream in terror There’s blood all around And as you run you see the chaos to be found There is dust in every window as the building dose collapse The thrill of seeing people run Finally active, so take that!
And now, look here! they persecute thier men The white, the brown Segregation doesn’t end!
Oh I want it oh I want it oh I want it for my own.
I’ve got to know I got to know what kind of hell hole is this place! …..America?……hmmm
What's this? What's this? We're not high in the air What's this? Tall buildings over there What's this? They can't believe their eyes, there's so much screaming Wake up, please, this isn't fair! What's this?
Sept 11 1973 the coup backed by Nixon and the CIA assassinated the democratically elected president of Chile. Installing a dictatorship. This is what I remember every September 11.
In Nightmare Before Christmas, Jack Skellington finds magical doorways that lead to the land of each holiday. He uses one to go to Christmas land and take over Christmas.
Hi, I'm the stupid idiot. I still don't get it. Are they implying that Halloween will blend with 9/11? Are we going to decorate skyscrapers for Halloween and then crash airplanes into them on 9/11 every year?

They are implying there's a new magical fantasy holiday land based around 9/11 that Jack Skellington can now visit and sing about.

Ahh... I see.
