Lyrics 1984 (Reality Today) - The Bristles

1984 (Reality Today)

so the governments they come and go
so what the fuck, it’s the same show
so many people blinded by their lies
they haven’t seen the reality of today
so the future is an unwritten story
but it’s got the power and it’s got the glory
I ain’t got no future and it’s the same for you
so why don’t you fuck off, fuck you
before it was '83, now it’s '84
what the fuck I’m livin' for?
I ain’t got no future and it’s the same for you
but what the fuck can we do?
1981!
wasn’t that fun
1982!
not a shit for me and you
1983!
what’s it gonna be in 1984
is it worth livin' for?
the future is an unwritten story
but it’s got the power and it’s got the glory
it’s our future which we ain’t control
people in misery and people on the dole
1981!
wasn’t that fun
1982!
not a shit for me and you
1983!
what’s it gonna be in 1984
is it worth livin' for?
the cold war is here to stay — reality today!
and it’s always gonna be that way — reality today!
until hell break loose — reality today!
it’s up to us so you’d better choose — reality today!
so the governments they come and go
so what the fuck, it’s the same show
so many people blinded by their lies
they haven’t seen the reality of today
