*NEW LYRICS
(Verse 1 & 2)
There’s a man in the sky
With a satellite
Watching you walk by
There’s a man
With his ears
In your wall
He’s the man
Locks you up
If you Whistle Blow
No trial, tough luck
He’s the man
Wants to waterboard us all
(Chorus)
It’s the NSA and the CIA
It’s a killing drone
Half a world away
It’s the Orwell Nightmare of 1984
It’s a backdoor hack
Into your smartphone
Got your contact list
Your coordinates known
It’s the Orwell Nightmare of 1984
(Verse 3 & 4)
There’s a man on a throne
Laughing each time you think
Your thoughts are your own
He’s a man
Sends you shopping at the mall
There’s a man with the pills
For your sex life, rotten life, urges to kill
He’s the man
Wants to medicate us all
(Chorus 2)
It’s the NSA and the CIA
It’s a killing drone
Half a world away
It’s the Orwell Nightmare of 1984
It’s your Facebook post
And your Twitter feed
All the evidence they say they need
It’s the Orwell Nightmare of 1984
(Bridge)
Crank that battery up and ask you one more time
Yeah, this is how we do it now
Change your profile, tell the world that you’ve been lying
Yeah, make you the enemy somehow
There’s a man, wants you scared
That the violence might erupt out there
There’s a man
Moving up as you move down
(Solo)
He’s the man plants the news
‘Bout the Christians, Muslims, Tamils and Jews
He’s the man
Driving freedom underground
(Chorus)
