Do They Know It's Christmas? (1984 Version) - Band Aid

It's christmas time there's no need to be afraid

At christmas time 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 christmas time

But say a prayer pray for the other ones

At christmas time 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 christmas time

The greatest gift they'll get this year is life

Where nothing ever grows

No rain nor rivers flow

Do they know it's christmas time at all

Here's to you

Raise a glass for everyone

Here's to them

Underneath that burning sun

Do they know it's christmas time at all

Feed the world

Feed the world

Feed the world

Let them know it's christmas time again

Feed the world

Let them know it's christmas time again

Feed the world

Let them know it's christmas time again

Feed the world

Let them know it's christmas time again

Feed the world

Let them know it's christmas time again

Feed the world

Let them know it's christmas time again
