A SPACEMAN CAME TRAVELLING
ON HIS SHIP FROM AFAR
'TWAS LIGHT YEARS OF TIME
SINCE HIS MISSION DID START
AND OVER A VILLAGE
HE HALTED HIS CRAFT
AND IT HUNG IN THE SKY
LIKE A STAR
JUST LIKE A STAR
HE FOLLOWED A LIGHT
AND CAME DOWN TO A SHED
WHERE A MOTHER AND CHILD
WERE LYING THERE ON A BED
A BRIGHT LIGHT OF SILVER
SHONE 'ROUND HIS HEAD
AND HE HAD THE
FACE OF AN ANGEL
AND THEY WERE AFRAID
THEN THE STRANGER SPOKE
HE SAID DO NOT FEAR
I COME FROM A PLANET
A LONG WAY FROM HERE
AND I BRING A MESSAGE
FOR MANKIND TO HEAR
AND SUDDENLY THE
SWEETEST MU
FILLED THE AIR...
AND IT WENT
LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA
PEACE AND GOODWILL
TO ALL MEN
AND LOVE FOR THE CHILD
LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA
AH.....
THIS LOVELY MU
WENT TREMBLING
THROUGH THE GROUND
AND MANY WERE
WAKENED ON
HEARING THAT SOUND
AND TRAVELLERS
ON THE ROAD
THE VILLAGE THEY FOUND
BY THE LIGHT OF
THAT SHIP IN THE SKY
WHICH SHONE ALL AROUND
AND JUST BEFORE DAWN
AT THE PALING OF THE SKY
THE STRANGER RETURNED
AND SAID NOW I MUST FLY
WHEN TWO THOUSAND YEARS
OF YOUR TIME HAS GONE BY
THIS SONG WILL
BEGIN ONCE AGAIN
TO A BABY'S CRY...
AND IT WENT
LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA
LA-LA-LA-LA-LA-LA
PEACE AND GOODWILL
TO ALL MEN
AND LOVE FOR THE CHILD
OH, THE WHOLE
WORLD IS WAITING
WAITIN' TO HEAR
THE SONG AGAIN
THERE ARE THOUSANDS STANDING
ON THE EDGE OF THE WORLD
