Lullaby

Georg Danzer

If you are followed home tonight

Don't get uptight.

Don't get uptight.

It's just they think your radical.

Don't that beat all?

Don't that beat all!

And so whatever you may do,

Just keep in mind

They'll see it too.

Don't ask, insulted, why they should.

They'll say it's just for your own good.

So go to bed now, and sleep tight.

They'll watch you through the lonely night.

There is no reason to take fright;

They'll watch you through the lonely night.

Play deaf and dumb, refuse to see;

They might be kind and let you be.

But if you hope for social change,

You are deranged.

Oh yes! Deranged!

And if you're sexuallly aroused,

They'll find it out.

They'll find you out.

For not a thing escapes their eye,

Those agents from the FBI.

Sleep well, sweet dreams, and never fear.

Big Brother's day is drawing near.

Don't get upset, he'll be right here.

Big Brother's day is drawing near.

Those who denounce their fellow man

Are well-rewarded in this land.

They help maintain the status quo.

For them a black-list is unknown.

The Constitution protects those

Who are well off---and I suppose

It is one's duty to obey--

No questions asked, or else you pay.

But go to bed now, and sleep tight.

They'll watch you through the lonely night.

Big Brother's right there out of sight.

He'll watch you through the lonely night,

And so good night, and so good night.

Good night!
