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

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 to big to pretend

CHORUS

(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, (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

But we've been here before

(Wake up), it's 1984

But we've been here before

All our lives leading up to this day, watching and waiting

Wake up! Wake up!

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

CHORUS

Whole world is watching

Anticipating

Big brother's marching

Is it beginning or the end?
