Okay I just listened to the song and the little kid is buying his dieing mum a pair of shoes. It doesn't make sense. She's about to die, what is she going to do with a pair of shoes ? Wouldn't it be better to spend time with her rather than buying her a shallow gift ? Wouldn't the best gift for her be spending time with her ?

So Christmas is all about buying shallow gifts like shoes, and not spending time with family and friends ? My mum is unwell so I'll buy her some shoes... it doesn't make sense. And it's clearly made to try and tug on our emotions on a manipulative manner...
