Song information
Alright then... time to get back to rocking out!

If memory serves, this song was written back in 2010.

It concerns clandestine government surveillance of the citizenry,
and the tyranny it inevitably serves.

I decided to remix, remaster, and post this one as reminder that:

'ETERNAL VIGILANCE IS THE PRICE OF LIBERTY!'

Be well all!

Lyrics
LOOK OVER YOUR SHOULDER

I
Well I looked over my shoulder this morning,
and what did I see?
Another security camera a-focused on me!
Ah, Big Brother wants to monitor
everything I do and say...

II
Look over your shoulder my friends,
you know you're never alone;
from the ubiquitous eye-in-the-sky
up to the bug in your phone!
We took our freedoms for granted,
and now we're gonna reap what we have sown...

Oh... burn it down!

III
You say: 
'1984? Well it came and it went.'
Yeah, you say: 
'1984? You know it came and it went.'

You know it seems that your response
has been SCRIPTED.
Yeah, PROGRAMMED,
by the authors of your assent!

Well, well, well,
but Orwell was right!
Yeah!
It happened just like he said.
You KNOW that it's true!

IV
Hey Big Brother better look
over your shoulder too!
Somebody much bigger and stronger 
got His sights set on you.
He's the LORD of history
and He'll judge you 
when your cup is full!

Yeah!

WATCH OUT!

Thanks Matt. After hearing the bad a*s organ in your last post I wanted some of the same in my next one. So after sorting through my options I decided this one would do the trick! Also, the message remains timely. Glad you like it bro!

Great rocking tune and an effective message.  Vocals and lead guitar are highlights.  It has a very early 80's hard rock feel, which I also like a great deal.

If Big Brother is watching me, he's going to be really bored.
Really rocks, and the message is more relevant than ever.
Thanks for sharing!

Thanks Mark. Your early 80s comments is spot on as the original mix of this---which included synth---was designed to be just that. I ended up removing the synth because it made things too busy.
Glad you enjoyed the tune!

Thanks Joseph. For THIS posting I actually had the pre-election antics of Hillary in mind. 
Methinks the threat is lessened somewhat now. It remains to be seen. 
No administration is perfect and---like you---I'm not naive. (Although I'm sometimes wrong.) 
Glad you enjoyed the tune old friend. Thank you for taking the time to both listen and comment!
