Written by Team Romford star colleague Jack Brooker, the song will help raise funds for Young Minds, the UK’s leading mental health charity for young people.
The music video shows employees setting a table for Christmas, displaying an array of food including bao buns and a full roast dinner.
This comes as M&S relaunched its 12 Days of Sparks digital advent calendar with this year’s campaign containing a £10k gift card prize draw.
