THE OPERATION Lyrics

The song THE OPERATION is performed by Charlotte Gainsbourg in the album named 5:55 in the year 2007 .



I want to explore you, I'm gonna get under your skin
So you can feel me running through your veins
I want to examine every inch of your frame
The pressure points that cause your joy and pain

Our love goes under the knife
There is no room for doubt

Now I'm inside you, my hands can feel their way
Further inside than I have ever been
Now I can really mess around with your heart
And fill it to the brim with broken dreams

Our love goes under the knife
Two lives may be saved

And if I pull this off, I'll refuse the noble prize
Instead I will look into your eyes
If I pull this off your whole body will be mine
And I'm prepared to work throughout the night

Our love goes under the knife
Nothing is taboo here on the cutting edge of science

Too much information, I feel I'm getting lost
Absorbed into the fiber of your soul
Deep within the abattoir of your entrails, your insides
Lost in you forever far from home

Our love goes under the knife
Someone got too close
Our love goes under the knife
The heart was rejected by the host
