The Vandals
If the Gov’t Could Read My Mind
[Verse 1]
Baby I'm more than a little concerned, you see
About the New World Order conspiracy
And the covert spreading of deadly disease
They've got earthquake machines and UFOs
Black helicopters wherever we go
But I forget them all when you are with me

[Chorus 1]
They can telepathically monitor my mind
I'm not scared of what they'll find
Let them do what they're gonna do
'Cause if the government could read my mind
They'd know I'm thinking of you
If the government could read my mind
They'd know I'm thinking of you

[Verse 2]
They've got secretly-funded internment camps
And biological warfare labs
But when you look at me
They all don't seem so bad

[Chorus 2]
They've got Martian-traded technology
Mind control psychology
Let them do what they wanna do
'Cause if the government could read my mind
They'd know I'm thinking of you
If the government could read my mind
They'd know I'm thinking of you
[Bridge]
I could stockpile food and join a militia
But I'd rather stay at home and kiss ya
None of it matters when I'm with you

[Chorus 1]
They can telepathically monitor my mind
I'm not scared of what they'll find
Let them do what they're gonna do
'Cause if the government could read my mind
They'd know I'm thinking of you

[Outro]
'Cause if the government can read my mind, baby
You know, it doesn't matter what they'd find
'Cause if the government could read my mind
They'd know I'm thinking of you
