Lyrics Orwell's Year - Golden Earring

Orwell's Year

We have been waitin' for this
To put an end to all bliss
Oh there’s works to be done
Oh there’s work under the sun
Happy New Year!
In the back alley’s
Millionaire valley’s
Trafalgar Time Square and the who knows where!
Big brother’s to watching you
Baby’s got a computer tutor
Daddy is a trouble shooter
Fat cookie in a soylent green
From a kitchen that you’ve never seen
It’s all shiny chrome — attaching your chromosomes
Say — count to four —
Count to 1 — 9 — 84
Welcome
Welcome to 1984
Orwell’s year is here!
Yeah
It’s the ministry of energy
The ministry of ecology
The university of food and economy
The ministry of war and explosions
The ministry of you and me
Minus Orwell’s sanity
Welcome everybody — to be a nobody
The ministry of heavenly peace
Big brother’s watching you!
Orwell’s year is here!
Say you wanna hear some more
Big brother’s watching you!
