DO THEY KNOW IT’S CHRISTMAS?
(FEED THE WORLD)
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 Christmastime 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
(Ohhh)
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
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time
ROCKIN’ AROUND THE CHRISTMAS
TREE
Rockin’ around the Christmas tree
At the Christmas party hop
Mistletoe hung where you can see
Every couple tries to stop
Rocking around the Christmas tree
Let the Christmas spirit ring
Later we'll have some pumpkin pie
And we'll do some carolling
You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear
Voices singing let's be jolly
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Rocking around the Christmas tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone dancing merrily In the new old-fashioned way
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
You will get a sentimental feeling
When you hear
Voices singing let's be jolly
Deck the halls with boughs of holly
Rocking around the Christmas tree
Have a happy holiday
Everyone dancing merrily In the new - old-fashioned way!
MISTLETOE AND WINE
The child is a King
The carollers sing
The old has passed
There's a new beginning
Dreams of Santa
Dreams of snow Fingers numb
Faces aglow
Christmas time
Mistletoe and Wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire
And gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice
In the good that we see
A time for living
A time for believing
A time for trusting
Not deceiving
Love and laughter
And joy ever after
Ours for the taking
Just follow the master
Christmas time
Mistletoe and Wine
Children singing
Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire And gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice
In the good that we see
Silent night, holy night
It’s a time for giving
A time for getting,
A time for forgiving
And for forgetting
Christmas is love
Christmas is peace,
A time for hating
And fighting to cease
Christmas time
Mistletoe and Wine
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire
And gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice
In the good that we see
Christmas time
(Silent night) Mistletoe and wine
(Holy night)
Children singing Christian rhyme
With logs on the fire
And gifts on the tree
A time to rejoice In the good that we see
WINTER WONDERLAND
Sleigh bells ring, are you listenin'?
In the lane, snow is glistening
A beautiful sight, we're happy tonight
Walking in a Winter Wonderland
Gone away is the bluebird
Here to stay is the new bird
He's singing our song, as we go along
Walking in a Winter Wonderland
In the meadow we can build a snowman
Then pretend that he is Parson Brown He'll say "Are you married?", We'll say "No
man, But you can do the job when you're in
town…"
Later on, we'll conspire
As we dream by the fire
To face unafraid, the plans that we made
Walking in a Winter Wonderland
[INSTRUMENTAL BREAK]
In the meadow we can build a snowman
And pretend that he's a circus clown
We'll have lots of fun with Mr Snowman
Until the other kiddies knock him down
When it snows, ain't it thrillin'
Though your nose gets a chillin’
We'll frolic & play, the Eskimo way
Walking in a Winter Wonderland
Walking in a Winter Wonderland Walking in a Winter Wonderland
STAY ANOTHER DAY
Baby if you've got to go away
I don't think I can take the pain
Won't you stay another day?
Oh, don't leave me alone like this
Don't say it's the final kiss Won't you stay another day?
Don't you know we've come too far now
Just to go and try to throw it all away
Thought I heard you say you love me
That your love was gonna be here to stay
I've only just begun to know you All I can say Is won't you stay just one more day?
Baby if you've got to go away
I don't think I can take the pain Won't you stay another day?
Oh, don't leave me alone like this
Don't say it's the final kiss
Won't you stay another day?
I touch your face while you are sleeping
And hold your hand
Don't understand what's going on
Good times we had return to haunt me
Though it's for you All that I do seems to be wrong
Baby if you've got to go away
I don't think I can take the pain
Won't you stay another day?
Oh, don't leave me alone like this
Don't say it's the final kiss
Won't you stay another day?
Baby if you've got to go away
I don't think I can take the pain
Won't you stay another day?
Oh, don't leave me alone like this
Don't say it's the final kiss Won't you stay another day?

ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS IS YOU
I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
I don't want a lot for Christmas
There is just one thing I need
And I don't care about the presents
Underneath the Christmas tree
I don't need to hang my stocking There upon the fireplace
Santa Claus won't make me happy
With a toy on Christmas Day
I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
All I want for Christmas is you
You baby
Oh I won't ask for much this Christmas
I won't even wish for snow
And I'm just gonna keep on waiting
Underneath the mistletoe
I won't make a list and send it
To the North Pole for Saint Nick
I won't even stay awake
To hear those magic reindeer click
'Cause I just want you here tonight
Holding on to me so tight
What more can I do?
Baby all I want for Christmas is you
You
Oh - all the lights are shining
So brightly everywhere
And the sound of children's
Laughter fills the air
And everyone is singing
I hear those sleigh bells ringing
Santa won't you bring me
The one I really need?
Won't you please bring my baby to me?
Oh I don't want a lot for Christmas
This is all I'm asking for
I just want to see my baby
Standing right outside my door
Oh I just want you for my own
More than you could ever know
Make my wish come true
Baby all I want for Christmas is
You baby
All I want for Christmas is you baby
POGUES - FAIRYTALE OF NEW YORK
It was Christmas Eve babe
In the drunk tank
An old man said to me,
Won't see another one
And then he sang a song
The Rare Old Mountain Dew
I turned my face away
And dreamed about you
Got on a lucky one
Came in eighteen to one
I've got a feeling
This year's for me and you
So happy Christmas
I love you baby
I can see a better time
When all our dreams come true
They've got cars
Big as bars They've got rivers of gold
But the wind goes right through you
It's no place for the old
When you first took my hand
On a cold Christmas Eve
You promised me
Broadway was waiting for me
You were handsome
You were pretty
Queen of New York City
When the band finished playing
They howled out for more
Sinatra was swinging
All the drunks they were singing
We kissed on the corner
Then danced through the night
The boys of the NYPD choir
Were singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells are ringing out
For Christmas day
You're a bum
You're a punk You're an old stupid drunk
Living there almost dead
On a drip in that bed
You scum bag
You maggot
You cheap lousy blaggard
Happy Christmas your arse
I pray God
It's our last
The boys of the NYPD choir
Still singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells are ringing out
For Christmas day
I could have been someone
Well, so could anyone
You took my dreams
From me when I first found you
I kept them with me babe
I put them with my own
Can't make it all alone
I've built my dreams around you
The boys of the NYPD choir Still singing 'Galway Bay'
And the bells are ringing out For Christmas day
MERRY CHRISTMAS EVERYONE

Christmas songs
We're gonna have
A party tonight
I'm gonna find that girl
Underneath the mistletoe
We'll kiss by candlelight
Room is swaying
Records playing
All the old songs
We love to hear
How I wish that
Every day was Christmas

MERRY XMAS EVERYBODY
Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall?

Does he ride a red nosed reindeer?
Does a ton-up on his sleigh?
Do the fairies keep him sober for a day?
So here it is Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun Look to the future now
It's only just begun
Are you waiting for the family to arrive? Are you sure you got the room
To spare inside?

That the old songs are the best? Then she's up and rock 'n' rollin' with the
rest
So here it is Merry Christmas
Everybody's having fun

What will your daddy do
When he sees your Mama
Kissin' Santa Claus?
Ah ah
Are you hanging up a stocking on your wall? Are you hoping that the snow will start to
fall?
Do you ride on down the hillside In a buggy you have made?
When you land upon your head
Then you've been slayed

FROSTY THE SNOWMAN
Frosty the snowman
Was a happy, jolly soul
With a corncob pipe
And a button nose
And two eyes made out of coal
Frosty the snowman
Is a fairytale, they say
He was made of snow
But the children know
How he came to life one day
There must have been some magic
In that old silk hat they found
For when they placed it on his head
He began to dance around
Oh, Frosty the snowman
Was alive as he could be
And the children say
He could laugh and play
Just the same as you and me
Frosty the snowman
Frosty the snowman...
[INSTRUMENTAL]
He led them down the streets of town
Right to the traffic cop
And he only paused a moment when
He heard him holler STOP!
Frosty the snowman
Had to hurry on his way
But he waved goodbye
Saying don't you cry
I'll be back again some day
LAST CHRISTMAS
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Once bitten and twice shy
I keep my distance
But you still catch my eye
Tell me baby
Do you recogniSe me? Well, it's been a year
It doesn't surprise me
Happy Christmas!
I wrapped it up and sent it
With a note saying
"I love you" - I meant it
Now I know
What a fool I've been
But if you kissed me now
I know you'd fool me again
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears

[INSTRUMENTAL]
Crowded room
Friends with tired eyes
I'm hiding from you
And your soul of ice
My god I thought you were
Someone to rely on
Me? I guess I was
A shoulder to cry on
A face of a lover
With a fire in his heart
A man under cover
But you tore me apart
Now I've found a real love
You'll never fool me again
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears
I'll give it to someone special
Last Christmas
I gave you my heart
But the very next day
You gave it away
This year, to save me from tears I'll give it to someone
I'll give it to someone special
I WISH IT COULD BE CHRISTMAS
EVERYDAY
Oh when the snowman brings the snow
Oh well he just might like to know
He's put a great big smile
On somebody's face
If you jump into your bed
And you cover up your head
Don't you lock the doors You know that sweet Santa Claus is on the
way
Well I wish it could be Christmas everyday
When the kids start singing
And the band begins to play
Oh I wish it could be Christmas everyday
Let the bells ring out for Christmas
When we're skating in the park
If the storm cloud paints it dark
Then your rosy cheeks
Are gonna light my merry way
Now the frosticals appeared
And they've frozen up my beard
And so we'll lie by the fire
Til the sleep simply melts them all away
Well I wish it could be Christmas everyday
When the kids start singing
And the band begins to play
Oh I wish it could be Christmas everyday
Let the bells ring out for Christmas
[INSTRUMENTAL]
When the snowman brings the snow
(when the snowman brings the snow) Well he just might like to know
(he just might like to know) He’s put a great big smile on somebody’s
face
So if Santa brings that sleigh
(Santa brings that sleigh)
All along the Milky Way
(along the Milky Way)
I’ll sign my name on the rooftop in the snow
Then he might decide to stay
Well I wish it could be Christmas everyday
When the kids start singing
And the band begins to play
Oh I wish it could be Christmas everyday
Let the bells ring out for Christmas
OK you lot - take it!
Well I wish it could be Christmas everyday
When the kids start singing
And the band begins to play
Oh I wish it could be Christmas everyday
Let the bells ring out for Christmas
Why don't you give your love for Christmas?
