Someday they will get you, now you must agree,
The times they are a telling,
And the changing isn't free,
You've read it in the tea leaves
And the tracks are on TV,
Beware the savage lure of 1984.
They'll split your pretty cranium
And fill it full of air,
And tell you that you're eighty,
But, brother, you won't care,
You'll be shooting up on anything,
Tomorrow's never there,
Beware the savage lure of 1984.
Come see, come see, remember me?
We played an all night movie role,
You said it would last,
But I guess we enrolled in 1984, 1984.
I'm looking for a vehicle, I'm looking for a ride,
I'm looking for a party, I'm looking for a side,
I'm looking for the treason that I knew in '65,
Beware the savage lure of 1984.
1984,
1984,
1984,
1984,
1984,
1984.
