Operation: Mindcrime lyrics

[Intro: Nikki, Dr. X]
"Hello?"
"Mindcrime"

[Verse 1]
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, yeah

[Verse 2]
A hitman 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

[Pre-Chorus]
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

[Chorus]
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
[Guitar Solo]

[Verse 3]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Now I know you won't refuse (I know you won't refuse)
Because we've got so much to do (We've got so much to do)
And you've got nothing more to lose
So take this number and welcome to

[Chorus]
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
[Outro: Nikki]
"Hey, hey, listen to me"
