Living on a marble

1984 be a good year, but it won't be so good for you and me.They've already got us surrounded. There's nothin' but disharmony.
You don't realize they got you categorized. So subtle it can't be detected.
They got a chain around your brain, and you might as well be lame.It's too late you're already infected.
Universal love can be a good thing. Everybody stays on their own soil.
But until everybody tries to get together, that's when the blood begins to boil.
Birds of a feather will always flock together, don't matter what the situation.
But when they tried to build the Tower of Babel.It turned out to be God's damnation
It turned out to be God's damnation
It turned out to be God's damnationChorus:
Although a man has walked in space, sent a rocket up to the moon.We're still no nearer to the stars. In fact we're running out of room.
Destruction is a black crossroads, born out of a politician's hand.
This government speaks about freedom. They bring back the destruction to the land.
Absolute power corrupts absolutely, when we need decentralization.
Cut down the power and you'll cut down the size.That's our only salvation.Chorus:
Although a man has walked in space, sent a rocket up to the moon.We're still no nearer to the stars. In fact we're running out of room.
Living on a marble.We're living on a marble.
