Do They Know It’s Christmas? versuri

Versuri Band Aid – Do They Know It’s Christmas? lyrics

[Verse 1: Paul Young]
It’s Christmastime
There’s no need to be afraid
At Christmastime
We let in light and we banish shade

[Verse 2: Boy George]
And in our world of plenty
We can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world
At Christmastime

[Verse 3: George Michael & Simon LeBon]
But say a prayer
Pray for the other ones
At Christmastime
It’s hard, but when you’re having fun

[Pre-Chorus: Simon LeBon, Simon LeBon & Sting, Sting & Bono, Bono]
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

[Chorus: Ensemble & Boy George]
And there won’t be snow in Africa this Christmastime
The greatest gift they’ll get this year is life (Oh)
Where nothing ever grows, no rain or rivers flow
Do they know it’s Christmastime at all? (Oh)

[Bridge: Marilyn & Glenn Gregory, Paul Young, All]
Here’s to you, raise a glass for everyone
Here’s to them underneath that burning sun
Do they know it’s Christmastime at all?

[Outro: Ensemble]
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 (Let them know it’s Christmastime again)
Feed the world (Let them know it’s Christmastime again)
