Operation - As Friends Rust

I went to see a rabbi

But despite his advice

I want an operation

I will not father life

Operation, operation

Snip & tie, snip & tie

Operation, operation

Snip & tie, snip & tie

They send me to a preacher

A really thoughtful guy

He said my idea’s crazy

I shouldn’t even try

This operation, operation

Snip & tie, snip & tie

Operation, operation

Snip & tie, snip & tie

But I’ve just seen a surgeon

And with a knife he cut

I cannot bring you children

This world is such a rut

Operation, operation

Snip & tie, snip & tie

Operation, operation

Snip & tie, snip & tie

I had an operation

A statement of our times

They tied my balls together

What’s inside’s not alive

Operation, operation

Snip & tie, snip & tie

Operation, operation

Snip & tie, snip & tie

Operation, operation

Snip & tie, snip & tie

Operation, operation

Snip & tie, snip & tie
