about

I'm currently training to be a teacher at Coldfall Primary School in north London. This gives me the excuse to do such things as write Christmas songs (something I've been meaning to do for years!) In a year that has been confusing and testing in many ways, I hope this song gives you a little hug. Merry Christmas everyone!

All money made from this track on Bandcamp will be donated to Educaid, a charity which Coldfall Primary School works closely with that provides education opportunities in Sierra Leone. Throughout the course of the year, the school normally runs fundraising events for Educaid, but this year they haven't been able to run these as normal and therefore our donations have been down. If you enjoy the song, please consider paying for it and in turn donating to a worthy cause. (The asking price is £1, but if you want to donate more, then please feel free!)

lyrics

Mrs Davies should be lying on a beach in the sun,
Mr Browning should be counting all the new trophies he's won,
There won't be Widow Twankey or a pantomime this year,
We'll spread joy and love, but we can't stand too near

Corona won't cancel Christmas,
As long as there is you and me,
We wish you a Coldfall Christmas,
Believe in joy and peace and ubuntu

We can't go in the canteen, it's just packed lunches now,
Keeps the doors and windows open to keep the virus out,
We might be feeling colder at Christmas-time this year,
Ours hearts will still be warm by hope and love and cheer

I don't see all my friends walking down the corridor,
And sitting at my desk all day is proving quite a chore,
At break-time oh we have to stay in just one little space,
But Christmas-time is here and I really love this place

The bells might ring for Christmas in a different way this year,
So hold your family close and all the things that you hold dear,
The bells might ring for Christmas in a different way this year,
But they'll still ring

Corona won't cancel Christmas,
As long as there is you and me,
We wish you a Coldfall Christmas,
Believe in joy and peace and ubuntu
