xmas for the alkies

THE SUMMER HAS GONE AN' WINTER DRAWS NEAR
THE SNOW STARTS TO FALL AND BRINGS XMAS CHEER

THE ALKIES WILL DINE, ON WHAT IS LEFT OVER
A CHRISTMAS DEVINE, AS SPIRITS, FLOW OVER

SPARE A THOUGHT FOR THOSE YOU MEET,
LIKE THE MAN WHO SLEEPS IN THE STREET
AND BE HIS SAVIOUR THIS XMAS TIME

HE LIVES IN A BOX, NO XMAS DECORATIONS,
THE COLD AIR AFFECTS HIS BLOOD CIRCULATION

SO DON'T JUST WALK BY, IF YOU HAVE CHANGE TO SPARE
HELP YOUR FELLOW MAN AND BRING XMAS CHEER

SPARE A THOUGHT FOR THOSE YOU MEET,
LIKE THE MAN WHO SLEEPS IN THE STREET
AND BE HIS SAVIOUR THIS XMAS TIME

Remember this when you are tucking into your turkey dinner,
while drinking your Chardonnay and opening your expensive gifts,
that somewhere someone is sleeping in a box,
cold and hungry, so spare a thought and maybe
some change and give that alky a merry xmas

SPARE A THOUGHT FOR THOSE YOU MEET,
LIKE THE MAN WHO SLEEPS IN THE STREET
AND BE HIS SAVIOUR THIS XMAS TIME

CHOIR: oh come all ye faithful, joyful and triumphant
o! Come ye oh come ye today......

(repeat till end)
