Well another year is coming to an end
I'm thinking about my family and friends
I know there's got to be a better way
To celebrate this very special day
Funny how we just about remember
The days when Christmas started in December
Now the lights go up before the summer's barely gone
And straight away the madness starts and carries on and on
Millions of trees will go just for Christmas day
And Millions more we grow just to throw them all away
Why don't we stop and think and change the things we do
For a better future for me and you
Millions of tons of stuff we buy for just one day
And everything comes packed in stuff we throw away
Millions of plastic toys all swimming in the sea
Is this really how Christmas time should be?
If we to teach our children what to do
Maybe they will change their point of view
Our planet is in trouble it needs some loving care
We can try to stop the greed and we can learn to share
A present isn't always something bought
It can be so small, what matters is the thought
A pocket full of promises a newly planted tree
Some-thing that won't cost the earth or something that is free
Millions of trees will go just for Christmas day
And Millions more we grow just to throw them all away
Why don't we stop and think and change the things we do
For a better future for me and you
Millions of tons of stuff we buy for just one day
And everything comes packed in stuff we throw away
Millions of plastic toys all swimming in the sea
Is this really how Christmas time should be?
And the magic will live on in songs and stories
Where has the spirit of Christmas gone
Changing the way that we think can happen
So a million trees can stay where they belong
Millions of trees will go just for Christmas day
And Millions more we grow just to throw them all away
Why don't we stop and think and change the things we do
For a better future for me and you
Millions of tons of stuff we buy for just one day
And everything comes packed in stuff we throw away
Millions of plastic toys all swimming in the sea
Is this really how Christmas time should be?
Imagine how our Christmases could be?
