 Your name is big brother,
                               
 You say that you're watch-ing me on the tele;
                         
Seeing me go no-where.

 You say that you're tired of me pro-testing;
                             
 Children dying every-day.

Chorus 1:

              
 My name is no-body,
                                   
But I can't wait to  see your face, inside my door.

 You say that you got me all in your notebook;
                              
 Writing it down every-day.

 Your name is I'll see ya,

The President of your soul.

 We live in a house the size of a matchbox,
                                     
 Roaches live with us wall to wall.

 You've killed all our leaders;
                       
 I don't even have to do nothin' to you;
                                        
You'll cause your own country to fall.
