The Christmas Song
Various Artists Lyrics


Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴  Line by Line Meaning ↴

Blue is the colour, football is the game
We're all together, and winning is our aim
So cheer us on through the sun and rain
'Cause Chelsea, Chelsea is our name

Here at the Bridge whether rain or fine
We can shine all the time
Home or away, come and see us play
You're welcome any day
(Ayyy)

Blue is the colour, football is the game
We're all together, and winning is our aim
So cheer us on through the sun and rain
'Cause Chelsea, Chelsea is our name

Come to the she'd and we'll welcome you
Wear your blue and see us through
Sing loud and clear until the game is done
Sing Chelsea everyone.
(Ayyy

Blue is the colour, football is the game
We're all together, and winning is our aim
So cheer us on through the sun and rain
'Cause Chelsea, Chelsea is our name

Blue is the colour, football is the game
We're all together, and winning is our aim




So cheer us on through the sun and rain
'Cause Chelsea, Chelsea is our name

Overall Meaning

It is important to note that the lyrics above are not from the original "The Christmas Song" written by Mel Tormรฉ, but rather an alternate version by Various Artists. These lyrics are actually from a Chelsea football club chant, a song frequently sung by fans during games to show support for their team.


The lyrics depict the sense of unity that arises among fans and the team when supporting, playing and winning for their beloved Chelsea football club. Blue, the color of the team uniforms, is referenced heavily throughout the song, emphasizing the strong identification fans have with the team. The reference to football as the game shows the importance and passion that fans have for the sport and their team. Winning is the ultimate goal and the unification of fans and players is reinforced through mutual support in good times and in bad, whether it is through the sun or rain.


The repetition of "Chelsea, Chelsea is our name" acts as a rally cry for the team and their fans, reminding them of their shared passion and commitment to the club. The line "Come to the shed and we'll welcome you" also highlights the sense of community and inclusivity within the fanbase, inviting others to share in the excitement and camaraderie around the game and the team.

This is one of my favorite christmas songs so here are the lyrics๐Ÿ˜€

It's Christmas time, there's no need to be afraid
At Christmas time, we let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty we can spread a smile of joy
Throw your arms around the world at Christmas time
But say a prayer, Pray for the other ones
At Christmas time it's hard, but when you're having fun
There's a world outside your window
And it's a world of dread and fear
Where the only water flowing
Is the bitter sting of tears
And the Christmas bells that ring
There are the clanging chimes of doom
Well tonight thank God it's them instead of you
And there won't be snow in Africa this Christmas time
The greatest gift they'll get this year is life
Where nothing ever grows
No rain nor rivers flow
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?
Here's to you
Raise a glass for everyone
Spare a thought this yuletide for the deprived
If the table was turned would you survive
Here's to them
Underneath that burning sun
You ain't gotta feel guilt just selfless
Give a little help to the helpless
Do they know it's Christmas time at all?
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
Feed the world
(Feed the world)
Feed the world
Feed the world

It's Christmas time
There's no need to be afraid
At Christmas time
We let in light and we banish shade
And in our world of plenty
We can spread our smile of joy
Feel your arms around the world at Christmas time
But 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
Where 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 you
Bring peace and joy this Christmas to West Africa
A song of hope where there's no hope tonight (ooh)
Why is comfort to be feared?
Why is to touch to be scared?
How can they know it's Christmas time at all?
Here's to you
Raise a glass to everyone
Here's to them
And all there is to come
Can they know it's Christmas time at all?
Feel the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Feel the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Heal the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Feel the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Heal the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Feed the world, let them know it's Christmas time again
Feel the world, let them know it's Christmas time again

They should do a 2020 version of this. I forgot that one direction are the first people to sing and I almost had a heart attack

@rhiannonjennings282

SAME OML

@Username-ww2cd

A 2020 version wouldn't be a good idea - Cardy B singing about her ass and a load of irrelevant rappers completely ruining it

@me8751

@Username Yup. That's exactly what would happen.

@Stephie2007

@Username Exactly. Did you see what what happened to the 25th anniversary edition of "We are the World" that benefited the Haiti earthquake? Unnecessary rap verses, Jamie Foxx impersonating Ray Charles (Nice effort at a tribute, sir but it wasn't needed.) Kanye West (After his hissy fit during a Hurricane Katrina televised event, do you really think I wanted to see HIM involved with this??), Lil' Wayne (Wasn't he supposed to be in Jail during that time?) and sooo much autotune.๐Ÿ˜–

@clqvss1026

Yep

They should just write a brand new song for this group. Leave the original just the way it is. No one can touch the original version, its a complete masterpiece.

@suzy_the_cockatoo

Yup, and the voices in the original had true emotion that showed in their voices.

@Cassius.

We will see what ladbaby do with it

@Briegemc_kenna

It's a good idea but I really don't like the rewrites
