Do they know it’s Christmas? Someone should write a song about that
To the usual tune, please:
It’s Christmas time, there’s no need to be afraid.
‘Cause once again we can all get pissed and forget homemade
And in our world of plenty we pray "bought" makes the cut
And hope the kids will keep their gobs well shut
But say a prayer, pray for a well filled store.
Packed with the treats which you knew in days of yore.
There’s a world outside of Iceland but it’s not the one you knew
And the only Christmas icecream is enough to make you spew
And the Christmas tills are ringing after robbing you for tat
Well, tonight thank God at least it feeds the cat
And there won’t be decent sausages this Christmas time
The kids will fight and inlaws press to call
Perhaps they’ll eat the dross
To save a complete loss
Do they know it’s Christmas time at all?
Here’s to you, raising a glass of fizz
Hang on a sec - what’s this? a weasel’s piss?
Do they know it’s Christmas time at all?
Feed the world,
Tell them, though, that Mumsnet thinks they’re shits.
Feed the world,
Sainsbos, Tesco ... all of them the pits
