Now let’s listen to a song called “Christmas on the Beach”, by Bera. Which customs or traditions do you think it will mention?

All rights reserved to BERA.

Watch the clip and check your predictions.

Listen again and fill in the blanks.

[Chorus]

Come home for Christmas on the beach

No snow by our feet

Walk along the sea and

Build sandcastles under palm trees

​

Sip caipirinhas in the heat

My December summer eve

You're the only I need

For our Christmas on the beach

​

Why put up on an evergreen

We've got rainbows on wings

as far as the eye can see

​

​

​

​

Why hang the all across our city streets

We've got stars in the sky

And sunsets you wouldn't believe

​

I'll make a

That you'll be here to kiss

And when I wake to your face

I will know that Santa's real, he made you

​

[Chorus]

​

Don't need a reason to look for

We've got plenty of love

When we've got each other to hold

​

Don't need loads of winter clothes

We've got plenty of sun

And babe when you dance in the waves I don't miss the cold

​
