we let in light and banish shade
Throw your arms around the world
There's a world outside your window,
and it's a world of dread and fear
And the Christmas bells that ring there
are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God it's them
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmastime
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life(Oooh)
Do they know it's Christmastime at all?
Here's to you raise a glass for everyone
Here's to them underneath that burning sun
Why does the sun go on shining
Why does the sea rush to shore
Don't they know it's the end of the world
'Cause you don't love me any more
Why do the birds go on singing
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when I lost your love
I wake up in the morning and I wonder
Why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand. No, I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does
Why does my heart go on beating
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when you said goodbye
I wake up in the morning and I wonder
Why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand. No, I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does
Why does my heart go on beating
Don't they know it's the end of the world
Why does the sun go on shining
Why does the sea rush to shore
Don't they know it's the end of the world
'Cause you don't love me anymore
Why do the birds go on singing
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when I lost your love
I wake up in the morning and I wonder
Why everything's the same as it was
I can't understand no I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does
Why does my heart go on beating
Why does the sun go on shining
Why does the sea rush to shore
Don't they know it's the end of the world
'Cause you don't love me any more
Why do the birds go on singing
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when I lost your love
I wake up in the morning and I wonder
Why everythini's the same as it was
I can't understand, no, I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does
Why does my heart go on beating
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when you said goodbye.
Don't they know it's the end of the world
It ended when you said goodbye
I wake up in the morning and I wonder
Why everythini's the same as it was
I can't understand, no, I can't understand
How life goes on the way it does
Why does my heart go on beating
Don't they know it's the end of the world
Then I put the haters in their place
Now I kill it and they know my name
Shit, from the bottom tell 'em
Bitches tryna take my green, whoa
Young Honey, gotta get that dough
then I'm just grinding on the low, I gotta go...
All I got is hustle on my mind now
Man I wish I had some time now
Now I'm killing and they know my name
Yah I talk it I live it I get it You get it You strutting
