Paroles de Wake Up (It's 1984)

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 eyes



Whole world is watching, observing every move
That I just don't understand

Anticipation

It's much to big to pretend



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



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

Wake up, but we've been here before

Wake up, it's 1984

Wake up, but we've been here before

All our lives leading up to this day, watching and waiting



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



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



Whole world is watching

Anticipating

Big brother's marching

Is it beginning or the end?
