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
 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?
 CHORUS
