Well...
There's a very long, and a little bit... difficult... story behind this one. But, let's not dwell...

Let's just say- This is a song I made to help the Comic Relief Charity.

If you DO download this PLEASE let your conscience rule you and go here...
www.e-junkie.com/shop/product/385431.php
and donate the dollar that goes straight to a good cause.

Many thanks to Edric Haleen: happinessboard.com
and HUGE thanks to the Fu-ettes (Coleen, Dave, Denise, Denni, Jeff, Joann, Jutze, Kevin and Tom) who took time to record a few "Hands around the World" for me.

lyrics

DO IT ALL

When there's darkness all around you
and you cannot see the sun
and when hopelessness surrounds you]
and your instinct is to run
when this pretentious intro's over
and you need a bit of fun (fun,fun,fun,fun,fun,fun)

So get up off your ass
get out of your chair cos
the party has just begun...

Time to make a difference here
Help your fellow man
Got a song I wanna share
Sing it if you can

Well the tune don’t matter
and the words don’t rhyme
and the beat only hits the rhythm
some of the time
so grab a friend, a taco, a bottle of wine
and we can do it all.

Throw your hands around the world
Tell them that you care
Wrap your arms around them all
Show them we’re aware

I understand, strictly speaking
You may not be compliant
If you could you’d have to have the arms
Of some kind of giant
But metaphorically
I know that you can see (that)
We can do it all.

Let’s do it all
There’s more to life than
simply staring at a screen
just do it all
just take a look around you
you’ll see what I mean

but what you’re gonna see
is full of irony
this song itself was made by days
in front of a P.C.

But come and join us all
In answer to the call
To put your hands around the world
And do it all.

You may think there’s nothing of
A difference you could make.
But one less burger, one less fries
Is all that it would take

So give it up for a day
And we’ll make you a promise
Take the cash and donate
Just not to MacDonald’s

Get your purse, get your card
Get your bag, get your wallet
And you can do it all

(instrumentals)

(Let’s give it all)
Just look inside your heart
And you’ll know what to do
(don’t leave us all)
To count on someone else,
It’s really up to you

Lets do a little more
(for) the one’s we’re giving for
The sad, the poor, the hungry
Too easy to ignore

It’s time to put an end
To poverty and then
(we’ll) put our hands around the world
And do it all

So put your hands around the world…
...Hands Around The World (x 8)

...and Do It All!


..........................and Edric.
