Artist: Band Aid 20 Song: Do They Know It's Christmas? "|" marks the first beat of a bar | | | | | | | | | | | | It's Christmastime, there's no need to be afraid | | | | At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade | | | | And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy | | | | Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime | | | | But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones | | | | At Christmastime it's hard, but when you're having fun | | There's a world outside your window | | And it's a world of dread and fear | | Where the only water flowing | | Is the bitter sting of tears | | And the Christmas bells that ring there | | Are the clanging chimes of doom | | | | Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you | | | | And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime | | | | The greatest gift they'll get this year is life, Ohhhh | | Where nothing ever grows | | No rain nor rivers flow | | | | Do they know it's Christmastime at all? | Here's to you | Raise a glass for everyone | Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived | If the table was turned would you survive | Here's to them | Underneath that burning sun | You ain't gotta feel guilt just selfless | Give a little help to the helpless | | Do they know it's Christmastime at | | | | all? | | | | Feed the world | | | | Feed the world | | | | Feed the world | | | | Feed the world | | Feed the world | | Let them know it's Christmastime again | | Feed the world | | Let them know it's Christmastime again | | Feed the world | | Let them know it's Christmastime again | | Feed the world | | Let them know it's Christmastime again | | | | | | | | | | | | Feed the world - repeat to fade
