Future After 1984
"Four" Four With that word, the world came to an end In flames of nuclear power That man did send Death Swept through Eastasia and Eurasia The scale was tipped by one last breath Oceania’s Pride Three Three giants threw spears at each other A scorching war destined to be And Big Brother Died Nuclear sunlight beamed through cracked glass Waking up the proles, who...
