Big Brother

I get by without hearing what the papers say
About what's happening miles away
I'll wear in my shoes
Don't want to be mothered
Fall for protocol or charm
Believe in any false alarm
And oh my word
I don't want to be Big-brothered

Same will only breed the same
Lord knows it's hard to break it
When you come to a fork in the road
Take it
No one writes any letters no more
Only junk coming through the door
And every move is covered
Every move's Big-brothered

As the camera tracks along the wall
The temperature begins to fall
I must have strayed into the zone
This doesn't feel like home

Red Indians in America
Aborigines in Australia
Disappointment on the moon
So we discovered
I read genocide could be linked to stress
But anyway I couldn't care less about most things
But I don't want to be Big-brothered

We're like royalty when it comes to war
We'll show Al-Qaeda what for
Just tear into anywhere in need
And just let it bleed

No I don't want to read what the papers say
About what's happening miles away
I'll wear in my shoes
Don't want to be mothered
Fall for protocol or charm
Believe in any false alarm
And oh my word
I don't want to be Big-brothered

There'll be no big Brother
As we cut through the airy way
