Lyrics

Operation

Operation, cover your ears

You're not gonna like what you're gonna hear

I hate you, I hate you

I hate you, I hate you

Operation, you're not here

You can't love what you can't like

What you fear, what you fear

What you fear, what you fear

Operation, cover your eyes

I don't wanna see you, I don't wanna feel you

Not near me, not near me

Not near me, not near me

Operate, operate

Operate, operate

Operation, operation

Operation, operation

Operation, cover your ears

You're not gonna like what you're gonna hear

I hate you, I hate you

I hate you, I hate you

Operation, cover your eyes

You can't love what you can't like

What you fear, what you fear

What you fear, what you fear

Oh

How did you know

It was so easy

To destroy her

Oh

How did you know

It was so easy

To destroy her

Operation, cover your eyes

I don't wanna see you, I don't wanna feel you

Not near me, not near me

Not near me, not near me

Operation, cover your ears

You're not gonna like what you're gonna hear

I hate you, I hate you

I hate you, I hate you

I hate you, I hate you

I hate you, I hate you

I hate you, I hate you

I hate you, I hate you

I hate you
