Do They Know It's Christmas? (1984 Version)
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, ohh
Where nothing ever grows
No rain or rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmas time at all? Ohh
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
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time
Feed the world
Let them know...
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, ohh
Where nothing ever grows
No rain or rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmas time at all? Ohh
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
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time
Feed the world
Let them know...
