Got a feeling someone’s watching me
From the supermarket store playing hide and seek
Hanging on the ceiling and they never sleep
Everywhere I go I see this silver machine
1980’s a brand new age
1980’s a brand new age
Anonymous people going nowhere
Being recorded by machines in the air

Is the future going to be a nightmare?
Everywhere you go they’re always there
Watching, listening to every word
The past was an omen now the future’s a curse
1980’s a brand new age
1980’s a brand new age
There’s no such thing as a private life
They watch you in the crib
Now they’re going to watch you die
