VERSE 1: (LARS) Way down in Oceania, they rewrite the past They erase the facts and the middle class They say 2+2 is 5 anyway, it's doublethink forever And ignorance is strength But I'm in the corner hiding, they can't see what I'm writing The telescreen is watching, in my journal I'm confiding We gave up all our liberties when we forgot to vote But Julia is brave, and she sends me secret notes Kissing through the ski masks, we’re creeping through the snow Big Brother would be jealous so we keep it on the low When I met this dude O’Brien, I think he's got to be Honest when he says we can stop the thought police! Now we've got the knack, to attack Or fate is safe like Equifax! And we won't stop writing 'til our work is done Wait, O'Brien - what's this sign? Room 101? VERSE 2: (MEGA RAN) Yo! One day we meet up at my flat And they swear their allegiance just like that Then I send Winston my favorite book Goldstein‘s manifesto and they got hooked Listen, they thought I was another brother Had no clue that I was under cover Tortured Winston with electroshock Made it gets so hot that he Rolled over on Julia even though he loved her I know they thought that I betrayed them But in the mayhem I was trying to save them Re-education, my specialization Sting operations, the art of persuasion 101 the last step done Still type stunned at the person I’ve become Doublethink got me sharp as a knife I’m just doing my job, Inner Party for life! CHORUS: 1984! The number! Another summer This year Big Brother's going under! (They lay down laws form state to state With Doublethink, they perpetrate) VERSE 3: (B. DOLAN) From classics to CliffsNotes to memory holes In the trap (set to kill hope) the penalty's known Give me access to glitch codes in every phone Keep you tapped in to snitch mode and never alone The owners mastered the impulse to shelter at home You'd rather strap in than match wits with Predator drones Promote distractions to captives so petty and passive Picking sides to monopolize dwindling rations I Divide! Colonize! Claim innocent factions Sanitize time's passage, smash the false idols Even re-design rivals when truth becomes libel Produce the drums! Shoot the guns on my arrival! What comes after Fake News? Fake words Language disassembled while them devils take turns That's why rappers gotta mumble, they're afraid to be heard... We know the time! CHORUS: 1984! The number! Another summer This year Big Brother's going under! (They lay down laws from state to state With Doublethink, they perpetrate)
