Wake Up (It's 1984) Lyrics
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, 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 eyesWhole 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 pretendWake 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 beforeBig 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 wayOpen your eyes sisters and brothers
Neatly disguised, so far away
Open your heart, try to remember
Two worlds apart but so closeWake 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 beforeAll our lives leading up to this day, watching and waitingWake up, wake up
Wake up, wake upOpen your eyes sisters and brothers
Neatly disguised, so far away
Open your heart, try to remember
Two worlds apart but so closeWake 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 beforeWhole 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 beforeWake up, it's 1984
Wake up, but we've been here before
Wake up, it's 1984
Wake up, but we've been here beforeWake up, it's 1984
