Wake Up (It's 1984) |
Wake up! |
Won’t you listen to me? |
Wake up! |
Won’t you listen to me? |
Won’t you listen to me? |
Big Brother’s watching; |
we watch him back |
We see right through his disguise |
He tries to scare us with angry words |
But we all know that they’re lies |
Whole world is waiting |
Just see the fear in their eyes |
Whole world is watching; |
observing every move |
Is it beginning or the end? |
Just like a chess game, but so intense |
That I just don’t understand |
Anticipation |
It’s much too big to pretend |
(Wake up), it’s 1984 |
(Wake up), but we’ve been here before |
(Wake up), it’s 1984 |
(Wake up), but we’ve been here before |
Big Brother’s screaming, but we don’t care |
'Cause he’s got nothing to say |
Think of the future; |
think of the prophecy |
Think of the children of today |
Big Brother’s marching |
So we all stand in his way |
Open your eyes, sisters and brothers |
Neatly disguised, so far away |
Open your heart; |
try to remember |
Two worlds apart, but so close |
(Wake up), it’s 1984 |
(Wake up), but we’ve been here before |
(Wake up), it’s 1984 |
(Wake up), but we’ve been here before |
All our lives, leading up to this day |
Watching and waiting |
Wake up! |
Wake up! |
Open your eyes, sisters and brothers |
Neatly disguised, so far away |
Open your heart; |
try to remember |
Two worlds apart, but so close |
(Wake up), it’s 1984 |
(Wake up), but we’ve been here before |
(Wake up), it’s 1984 |
(Wake up), but we’ve been here before |
Whole world is watching |
Anticipating |
Big Brother’s marching |
Is it beginning or the end? |
(Wake up), it’s 1984 |
(Wake up), but we’ve been here before |
(Wake up), it’s 1984 |
(Wake up), but we’ve been here before… |
