FROM ANTI-FLAG:
The song, “Welcome to 1984,” is an acoustic track written and
recorded directly after we finished the Rock Against Bush Tour across
the USA in Oct 2004. It focuses on the insanity and double speak of the
Bush Regime that is taking the USA down a path that is eerily similar
to the police state depicted in George Orwell’s novel.

The Lyrics:
“Welcome to 1984” by Anti-Flag
Who would Jesus bomb? Yeah, who would Jesus kill?
The double talk is past surreal
The word of god is now the word of hate
War is peace, and freedom is the police state
Can’t you see the writing on the wall?
Democracy lays trampled on the floor…
You better believe that…
Hell yeah I’m confused for sure what I thought was the New Millennium is 1984!
Mr. Orwell from the grave, adding fresh ink to the page
As the unpresident declares an endless war…
Welcome to 1984!
Feels like Nazi Germany, and Hitler on TV,
As the unpresident spews homophobic speech
You say the Allies fought a war to end extremist fascist law
So tell me NOW what the fuck are we fighting for?
I just can not take it anymore
Democracy lays trampled on the floor…
Man, isn’t freedom great?!?!
Hell yeah I’m confused for sure what I thought was the New Millennium is 1984!
Mr. Orwell from the grave, adding fresh ink to the page
As the unpresident declares an endless war…
Welcome to 1984!
Now we’ve got…
Armies of peace, armed to the teeth, delivering death to make the world a better place
So celebrate the weapons spending, say a toast to Armageddon, raise some hell!
We’re headed straight to hell!!!
Hell yeah I’m confused for sure what I thought was the New Millennium is 1984!
Mr. Orwell from the grave, adding fresh ink to the page
As the unpresident declares an endless war…
Welcome to 1984!
