Record Details

Release
1991

(Chris DeGarmo, Geoff Tate, Michael Wilton)

Lyrics:
It just takes a minute
And you’ll feel no pain
Gotta make something of your life boy
Give me one more vein
You’ve come to see the doctor
Cause I’ll show you the cure
I’m gonna take away the questions
Yeah I’m gonna make you sure

A hit man for the order
When you couldn’t go to school
Had a skin job for a hair-do
Yeah you looked pretty cool
Had a habit doing mainline
Watch the dragon burn
No regrets, you’ve got no goals
Nothing more to learn

Now I know you won’t refuse
Because we’ve got so much to do
And you’ve got nothing more to lose
So take this number and welcome to

Operation : Mindcrime
We’re an underground revolution
Working overtime
Operation : Mindcrime
There’s a job for you in
The system boy, with nothing to sign

Hey Nikki you know everything
That there is to do
Here’s a gun take it home
Wait by the phone
We’ll send someone over
To bring you what you need
You’re a one man death machine
Make this city bleed

Now I know you won’t refuse
Because we’ve got so much to do
And you’ve got nothing more to lose
So take this number and welcome to

Operation : Mindcrime
We’re an underground revolution
Working overtime
Operation : Mindcrime
There’s a job for you in
The system boy, with nothing to sign

Operation : Mindcrime
We’re an underground revolution
Working overtime
Operation : Mindcrime
If you come to see the doctor
Yeah he’ll give you the cure

Operation : Mindcrime
Make something of your life boy
Let me into your mind
Operation : Mindcrime
There’s a job for you in the system boy
With nothing to sign
