No one, I repeat, no one should give rocks in tricks or treats bags!
  

    Lucy: I got five pieces of candy! 

    Kid: I got a chocolate bar! 

    Another Kid: I got a quarter! 

    Charlie Brown: I got a rock.

    Kid: I got a candy bar! 

   Another Kid: Boy, I got three cookies! 

   Lucy: Hey, I got a package of gum! 

   Charlie Brown: I got a rock.

    Lucy: I got a popcorn ball! 

   Kid: I got a fudge bar! 

   Another Kid: I got a pack of gum! 

   Charlie Brown: I got a rock.

Good grief ... poor Charlie Brown.

Music is a powerful influence.
It moves people ...it even moves dogs.
Turn up the volume & watch this clip!

And this inevitably raises the question, why on earth did someone not write any pumpkin carols?

even if it is the Great Pumpkin!
