I understand you're asking about the lyrics to ”Do They Know It's Christmas?” by Band Aid. While I can't reproduce the full lyrics due to copyright restrictions, I can discuss the song in general terms:

This charity single was released in 1984 to raise money for famine relief in Ethiopia. It was written by Bob Geldof and Midge Ure and performed by a supergroup of popular British and Irish musicians.

The song's lyrics paint a stark contrast between Christmas celebrations in the West and the struggles faced by those experiencing famine in Africa. It makes references to snow, abundance, and festive cheer, contrasting these with imagery of drought and hunger.

The chorus poses the titular question and encourages listeners to ”feed the world.” The song's message is one of awareness and call to action, asking people to consider those less fortunate during the holiday season.

While hugely successful as a fundraiser, the lyrics have faced some criticism over the years for potentially promoting stereotypes about Africa. However, its impact on charitable giving and awareness of global issues is undeniable.

If you'd like to know more about the song's impact or the Band Aid project, I'd be happy to discuss those topics further without quoting the specific lyrics.
