05-12-1995 SANTA MONICA

di Alexakis, Eklund, Montoya

EVERCLEAR

I am still living with your ghost
Lonely and dreaming of the west coast
I don’t want to be your downtime
I don’t want to be your stupid game

With my big black boots and an old suitcase
I do believe I’ll find myself a new place
I don’t want to be the bad guy
I don’t want do your sleepwalk dance anymore
I just want to see some palm trees
I will try and shake away this disease

We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
Swim out past the breakers
Watch the world die

We can live beside the ocean
Leave the fire behind
Swim out past the breakers
Watch the world die…

03-12-1984 DO THEY KNOW IT’S CHRISTMAS

di Gandolf, Ure

BAND AID

It’s Christmas time, and there’s no need to be afraid
At Christmas time, we let in light and banish shade
And in our world of plenty, we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world
At Christmas timeBut say a prayer and pray for the other ones
At Christmas time, it’s hard but while you’re having fun
There’s a world outside your window, and it’s a world of dread and fear
Where a kiss of love can kill you, and there’s death in every tear
And the Christmas bells that ring there are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight we’re reaching out and touching youBring peace and joy this Christmas to West Africa
A song of hope where there’s no hope tonight, ooh
Why is coming first deadly feared?
Why is to touch to be scared?
How can they know it’s Christmas time at all?
