Band Aid 1984 – Do They Know It’s Christmas

[Paul Young]
It’s Christmas time
There’s no need to be …
At Christmas time
We let in light and we banish shade

[Boy George]
And in our world of plenty
We can spread a smile of …
Throw your arms around the world
At Christmas time

[George Michael]
But say a …
Pray for the other ones
At Christmas time it’s hard

[Simon LeBon]
But when you’re having fun
There’s a world outside your …
And it’s a world of dread and fear

[Sting]
Where the only water flowing
Is the bitter sting of …

[Bono & Sting]
And the Christmas bells that ring there
Are the clanging chimes of doom

[Bono]
Well tonight thank … it’s them
Instead of you

[Boy George & Others]
And there won’t be snow in Africa this Christmas time
The greatest gift they’ll get this year is life (Oooh)

[Marilyn & Glenn Gregory]
Here’s to you

[Paul Young]

[Marilyn & Glenn Gregory]
Here’s to them

[Paul Young, Marilyn & Glenn Gregory]
Underneath that … sun
Do they know it’s Christmas time at all?

[Chorus: All]
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Let them know it’s … time again

Feed the world
Let them know it’s Christmas time again
