1
Someday they won't let you, but now you must agree
2
The times they are a-telling, and the changing isn't free
3
You've read it in the tea leaves, the tracks are on TV
4
Beware the savage jaw
5
Of 1984
6
They'll break your pretty cranium, and fill it full of air
7
And tell you that you're eighty, but lover you won't care
8
You'll be shooting up as usual like tomorrow wasn't there
9
Beware the savage jaw
10
Of 1984
11
Come see, come see, remember me?
12
We played at an all night movie role
13
You said it would last, but I guess we rolled
14
In 1984 (who could ask for more)
15
1984 (who could ask for more)
16
Now we can talk in confidence
17
Did you guess that we've been done wrong?
18
Lies jump in queue to be first in line
19
Such a shameless design
20
He thinks he's well screened from the man at the top
21
It's a shame that his children disagree
22
They coolly decide to sell him down the line
23
Daddy's brainwashing time
24
He's a dodo, no no, didn't hear it from me (didn't hear it from me)
25
He's a dodo, no no, didn't hear it from me (didn't hear it from me)
26
She's doesn't recall her blessed childhood of yore
27
When a unit was a figure, not a she
28
When lovers chose each other seems the perks are due
29
Another memo to screw
30
She's a dodo, no no, didn't hear it from me (didn't hear it from me)
31
She's a dodo, no no, didn't hear it from me (didn't hear it from me)
32
Can you wipe your nose my child
33
Without them slotting in your file a photograph?
34
Will you sleep in fear tonight?
35
Wake to find the scorching light of neighbour Jim
36
He's come to turn you in
37
Another dodo, no no, didn't hear it from me (didn't hear it from me)
38
Another dodo, no no, didn't hear it from me (didn't hear it from me)
39
Another dodo, no no, didn't hear it from me (didn't hear it from me)
40
Come see, come see, remember me?
41
We played at an all night movie role
42
You said it would last, but I guess we enrolled
43
In 1984, who could ask for more
44
1984, who could ask for mor-or-or-or-ore
45
Mor-or-or-or-ore
46

47
1984 (who could ask for more)

1984 (who could ask for more)
