Someday they won`t let you, but now you must agree
The times they are a-telling, and the changing isn`t free
You`ve read it in the tea leaves, the tracks are on TV
Beware the savage jaw
Of 1984
They`ll break your pretty cranium, and fill it full of air
And tell you that you`re eighty, but lover you won`t care
You`ll be shooting up as usual like tomorrow wasn`t there
Beware the savage jaw
Of 1984
Come see, come see, remember me?
We played at an all night movie role
You said it would last, but I guess we rolled
In 1984 (who could ask for more)
1984 (who could ask for more)
Now we can talk in confidence
Did you guess that we`ve been done wrong?
Lies jump in queue to be first in line
Such a shameless design
He thinks he`s well screened from the man at the top
It`s a shame that his children disagree
They coolly decide to sell him down the line
Daddy`s brainwashing time
He`s a dodo, no no, didn`t hear it from me (didn`t hear it from me)
He`s a dodo, no no, didn`t hear it from me (didn`t hear it from me)
She`s doesn`t recall her blessed childhood of yore
When a unit was a figure, not a she
When lovers chose each other seems the perks are due
Another memo to screw
She`s a dodo, no no, didn`t hear it from me (didn`t hear it from me)
She`s a dodo, no no, didn`t hear it from me (didn`t hear it from me)
Can you wipe your nose my child
Without them slotting in your file a photograph?
Will you sleep in fear tonight?
Wake to find the scorching light of neighbour Jim
He`s come to turn you in
Another dodo, no no, didn`t hear it from me (didn`t hear it from me)
Another dodo, no no, didn`t hear it from me (didn`t hear it from me)
Another dodo, no no, didn`t hear it from me (didn`t hear it from me)
Come see, come see, remember me?
We played at an all night movie role
You said it would last, but I guess we enrolled
In 1984, who could ask for more
1984, who could ask for mor-or-or-or-ore
Mor-or-or-or-ore
1984
1984 (who could ask for more)
1984
1984 (who could ask for more)
1984
1984 (who could ask for more)
1984
Ooooo
