(Mind rental)
I can tell that you’re the kind
(Mind rental)
To let a hero rent your mind
(Mind rental)
That’s the game the ancients play
(Mind rental)
Teachings of their ancient way
I’m not lying to you, I’m carefully describing what I'm trying to do
Anticipating a change of heart, a cool refreshment, a hard restart
A sacred nut so hard to crack, let’s take the journey I’ll take you back
Everywhere you wanna be, pure nirvana unfolds for ye!
(Mind rental)
Prophecy of guiding light
(Mind rental)
Leads the wise men through the night
(Mind rental)
Ancient treasure for to find
(Mind rental)
When you hire out your mind
This is not a game, whatever you surrender will return the same
A spirit journey, a sacred quest, a hero at their lord’s behest
All you wanted was all you wrote, don’t be late or you’ll miss the boat
Don’t mistake it, you’re in the zone, you can’t afford not to rent to own
Mind rental, yeah…
Oh wa-ba-da-ba-da-ba-daaa-ba-ba-daaa-daba-daaa-daba-daaa-daba-daba-da-ba-da-dow
(Mind rental)
Let your inner spirit free
(Mind rental)
One-time only waive the fee
(Mind rental)
Open up the spectral gate
(Mind rental)
Climb aboard to claim your fate
Lay your pain to rest and put your spirit to the test
Be the hero of your soul, dont stop now youre on a roll
Step up quickly and skip the queue, a special offer reserved for you
The destination will be revealed, just sign your mind and seal the deal
Mind rental!
