Definitely Big Brother, ie government. Who else would cover a wound (like 9/11) with patriotism? (I'm referring to the band aid/flag).
Uhm, I'm not saying the Bush administration did well, or not. All I'm saying is that the big brother here refers to our government and not to a sibling, like a previous poster (on the thread with the wrong lyrics) said.
Plus, to keep with the Orwellian motif, there's the recurring "keep/be happy," the occasional "don't question authority," and the never-ending "pushing." Face down still!
