    Story Behind the Song
    This is the second version, recorded in NYC. Antiphonal text-work hits you from both sides of your head!

    Lyrics
    Big Brother

    Stand in silence, rent the mantle, mourn in comfort
    Sprinkle dust, obey - distrust, we search in vain for-

    A king on earth in pomp and circumstance
    Another Eden then another chance I tell you

    See the norm then be the norm - the ordinary
    In two faces separate cases - work will set you free

    They write the book though none of it is true
    All contradictions waiting here for you and then he-

    Lies like a dog - nips you from behind
    Heels at the bruise in the nick of time
    Rearrange your face - you keeping up with the pace?

    Living down the street and always watching you
    His wifes a whore, shes on the floor, her body is so blue
    Sleep like a baby hanging from a rope
    As all your friends they let you dangle irregardless

    Lifes just a joke - tapping on the line
    If you survive the beating - boy, youll be fined!
    Living in Beirut, USA
    News of the world - no, not today
    Have it your way!

    Say hello to your Big Brother
    He will treat you like no other
    Stay away from your Big Brother
    He will cheat - youll soon discover
    Say hello to your Big Brother
    He will beat you like a brother
    Just remember hes Big Brother
    Stab you in the back
    and hes watching thru the television

    No doubt they are the wisest people in the world
    And wisdom when it dies will be accredited to them
    With absolutely nothing left at all
    600 seconds - Robo pen is so essential

    What is news? A night of glass... extermination!
    Analyze and criticize - Congratulations!!

    They stand with gaping mouths across the street
    Without a sound - considerable vocabulary

    All the little people burn at the stake
    Waiting for the bastard queen to meet her fate
    Sit at the table son and clean your plate
    Its all a misconception - or is it what you ate?

    Just remember its Big Brother
    He will tease you like no other
    Dont forget hes there - Big Brother
    Wrap you up and then hell smother
    Stay away from your Big Brother
    Look - hes going undercover
    No mistake - its him - Big Brother
    Slash you with a knife and hell - slaughter you with propaganda

    Praise the Lord and pass the ammunitions mother
    Be all that you know you can - go shoot your brother

    Diplomacy and crime disorganized
    Just turn your back and I will kill the rats and mice and

    What have you got to hide?
    Let me take him for a ride!
    Skin for skin - peel away his pride
    Operation Just Cause - its alright
    Just step aside

    Let me help you - Im Big Brother
    I can hurt you like no other
    Let me show you - Im Big Brother
    Slice you up for bread and butter
    Pleez believe me - Im Big Brother
    I will treat you like a brother
    Just a minute - Im your brother
    Stab you in the back and Ill smother you with television!!
