1984
Turn out the lights and then pray for your life
While the TV keeps spitting the prophetic lies
They can hear what you're saying and know what you're thinking
Your thoughts are now crimes with your hands held up against the wall
1984, welcome to the end of the world
1984, this was supposed to be an age of gold
1984, who's that knocking at the door?
1984, it's Dr. Who and the Incredible Hulk
Time after time we all fall back in line
And the joints of our bones are all starting to grind
Like your teeth in your sleep from the stress of the week
And the buildings are covered in plastics that burn to the ground
1984, welcome to the end of the world
1984, this was supposed to be an age of gold
1984, who's that knocking at the door?
1984, it's Dr. Who and the Incredible Hulk
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
Give us a break without breaking our chains
We are tethered by weakness and never complain
When the schools were all full the opposite view
All the students will unplug the jukebox and burn all the books
1984, welcome to the end of the world
1984, this was supposed to be an age of gold
1984, who's that knocking at the door?
1984, it's Dr. Who and the Incredible Hulk
While the TV keeps spitting the prophetic lies
They can hear what you're saying and know what you're thinking
Your thoughts are now crimes with your hands held up against the wall
1984, welcome to the end of the world
1984, this was supposed to be an age of gold
1984, who's that knocking at the door?
1984, it's Dr. Who and the Incredible Hulk
Time after time we all fall back in line
And the joints of our bones are all starting to grind
Like your teeth in your sleep from the stress of the week
And the buildings are covered in plastics that burn to the ground
1984, welcome to the end of the world
1984, this was supposed to be an age of gold
1984, who's that knocking at the door?
1984, it's Dr. Who and the Incredible Hulk
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)

(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
(Nine-teen-eigh-ty-four)
Give us a break without breaking our chains
We are tethered by weakness and never complain
When the schools were all full the opposite view
All the students will unplug the jukebox and burn all the books
1984, welcome to the end of the world
1984, this was supposed to be an age of gold
1984, who's that knocking at the door?
1984, it's Dr. Who and the Incredible Hulk
