twenty-two
It's nineteen eighty-four
I'm beginning where I was before.
Walking through a storm looking for a rabbit.
His hand grabs thorns as he tries to grab it.
His hat has been empty way too long.
He can’t even pull out a lonesome blues song.
He’s got the magic man’s curse.
His name is turning into something worse.
But here comes the man what claims to know
How to make stop signs change to go.
He’s got a hat and he’s got a dollar.
He knows that he knows how to holler.
Man in the big hat has got a lot to say.
Nineteen eighty-four is startin’ in t’ play.
Nineteen eighty-four is having it’s day.
Nineteen eighty-four is here to stay.
Nineteen eighty-four isn’t going away.
You can get down on your knees and start in to pray
But nineteen eighty-four isn’t going away.
You can skip a rope all light and gay
But nineteen eighty-four isn’t going away.
Oh George that’s some number.
It out thunders thunder.
It's nineteen eighty-four
I'm beginning where I was before.
Walking by the Avon looking for a sonnet.
Walking in Stratford looking for a bonnet.
Woman’s got a rabbit but no place to hide it.
Use it or lose it isn’t for her to decide it.
She’s got the magician’s curse,
Got it in spades and in reverse.
But here comes the woman what claims to know
How to make stop signs change to go.
She’s got a bonnet and she’s got a dollar.
She knows that she knows how to holler.
Woman in the big bonnet has got a lot to say.
Nineteen eighty-four is startin’ in t’ play.
Nineteen eighty-four is having it’s day.
Nineteen eighty-four is here to stay.
Nineteen eighty-four isn’t going away.
You can get down on your knees and start in to pray
But nineteen eighty-four isn’t going away.
You can skip a rope all light and gay
But nineteen eighty-four isn’t going away.
Oh George that’s some number.
It out thunders thunder.
