… with apologies to George Orwell’s 1984
Obese mouthpiece full of conceit
with all of the news that your people secrete
what should we think of your 3am Tweets?
about fake protesters who march in the streets
and weaponized prejudice, a proud battle piece
enforced by a new brand of black clad police
your icy enforcers whom you’re proud to release
and no care for those innocents who find their decease
or the spin on the news that their memory maltreats
How you still hold power, wonders won’t cease
Bums in seats boys, bums in seats
Now get out of my way and do what I say
… because War is Peace
Land of the free, is this some kind of knavery?
Your bullying behaviour is so far from bravery
You strut around cocksure in a manner unsavory
and your random behaviour exemplifies vagary
causing stock volatility with your tariff chicanery
and all the while holding an air quite dictatory
Look under the covers though and it’s all a bit quavery
but just do what we tell you
… because Freedom is Slavery
Your eyes don’t see what your eyes see
Your ears don’t hear what they hear
You can have all you want if you’ll just bend the knee
Just believe I’m really sincere
What’s happening now, we can hold but a tenth
because it’s confusing when the lies are repeated at length
and there’s the concept of a plan to look after your health
Don’t worry, trust me
… Ignorance is Strength
– War is peace –
– Freedom is slavery –
– Ignorance is strength –
