BAND AID 20 LYRICS - Do They Know It's Christmas?

"Do They Know It's Christmas?"



[Chris Martin:]

It's Christmastime, there's no need to be afraid

At Christmastime, we let in light and we banish shade



[Dido:]

And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy

Throw your arms around the world at Christmastime



[Robbie Williams:]

But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones

At Christmastime it's hard, but when you're having fun



[Sugababes:]

There's a world outside your window

And it's a world of dread and fear



[Fran Healy:]

Where the only water flowing



[Fran Healy & Sugarbabes:]

Is the bitter sting of tears



[Fran Healy & Justin Hawkins:]

And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging chimes of doom



[Bono:]

Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you



[Will Young & Jamelia:]

And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime

The greatest gift they'll get this year is life



[Ms Dynamite & Beverly Knight:]

Where nothing ever grows

No rain nor rivers flow



[Group of ten and Joss Stone:]

Do they know it's Christmastime at all?



[Tom Chaplin (Keane):]

Here's to you



[Justin Hawkins (Darkness):]

Raise a glass for everyone



[Dizzee Rascal:]

Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived

If the table was turned would you survive



[Busted:]

Here's to them



[Justin Hawkins (Darkness):]

Underneath that burning sun



[Dizzee Rascal:]

You ain't gotta feel guilt just selfless

Give a little help to the helpless



[Joss Stone & Justin Hawkins:]

Do they know it's Christmastime at all?



[Tom Chaplin:]

Feed the world



[Tom Chaplin & Chris Martin:]

Feed the world



[Tom Chaplin & Chris Martin & Sugababes:]

Feed the world



[Tom Chaplin & Chris Martin & Sugababes:]

Feed the world



[Everyone in full chorus line.]

Feed the world

Let them know it's Christmastime again - [repeated]



[Group of ten:]

Feed the world



[Everyone in full chorus line.]

Feed the world - [repeated to end]



[Joss Stone ]

[Ad libs over outro]
