*** Lyrics ***
Verse 1
It's an S.O.S. - sent out telepatheticly,
Signs of our distress don't allow complacency,
We need restoration now of our integrity,
And a drastic bold reminder of our morality.
Pre-Chorus
The rectifying troop is here,
The ones we've needed all these years,
To stop the heinous wrongdoings,
And verify our moral benevolence as a people.
Chorus
Operation,
Operation Rescue,
They're here to right our fall,
They've heard our troubled call,
Operation,
Operation Rescue,
You wonder where they come from,
But I just wonder why they're here at all.
Ya Ya, Ya Ya, Ya.
Ya Ya, Ya Ya, Ya.
Ya Ya, Ya Ya, Ya.
Ya Ya, Ya Ya.
Verse 2
Life ever after is what they're in business for,
See them brandish the key to our kingdom's door,
It's pervasive, A part of, A part of you and me,
But not overwhelming as they wish it to be.
Pre-Chorus
If no one believed in fairy tales,
There's nothing they could do but fail,
Yet everywhere we look someone is trying
To reassure our moral benevolence as a people.
Chorus
Operation,
Operation Rescue,
They're here to right our fall,
They've heard someones troubled call,
Operation,
Operation Rescue,
You wonder where they come from,
But I just wonder what compels them all.
Outro
Operation,
Operation Rescue,
Operation,
Operation Rescue...
You may wonder where they come from,
But I just wonder what compels them all.
Ya Ya, Ya Ya, Ya.
Ya Ya, Ya Ya, Ya.
Ya Ya, Ya Ya, Ya.
Mail me if you've got a better version.
