Lyrics
I've got the power
Clear the base
Covered in ice, a spite on my face
Sprinted through the red light of the sterile space
Threw off the parka, snapped the latex on
Patient on the table with us with them almost gone
Surgeon doing compressions right upon his brow
Biomed, it's Dr. Feep, don't fire, it's over right now
Pop the chassis cover with an electric drill
And start shaking by an iron act of will
Four -legged connections, 40 watts beat
So the smoke rising to the monitor beat
Breach the contact, see the pain
Let the light say the current flowing
Ten minutes to solder, fight for the spark
Pulling a soul right out of the dark I'm aiming in the socket, flocks
on the trays Racing with death in the surgical space
The bullet tights, the power online
Capacitor charging on the vital sign
Biometh under strike with the light
We defy the shadows of the night
Capacitor charged, 200 ton will set
The sweetest damn command that I've heard yet
Surgeon grabbed the paddles, pressed them to the chest
Stand clear! Everybody take a rest!
Shocked, the body choked high on the surgical bed
Silence for three seconds hanging on the thread
Then thump, thump, thump, thump on the screen
Normal sinus rhythm, the sweetest ever seen
Ten minutes to shoulder, fight for the spark
Pulling us all right out of the dark
Iron in the socket, flux of the trace
Racing with death in the surgical space
Snap the port tight, power online
Capacitor charging on the final side
Biomethunder strike with the light
We defy the shadows of the night
The past is bad
Blood pressure 120 Over 80
Surgeon lowered his mask
Looked across the tray
Biomed, you saved this man today
Ten minutes to solder, fight for the spark
Pulling us all right out of the dark
Iron in the socket, flux on the trace
Racing with death in the surgical span
Snap the port tight, power online
Capacitor charging on the vital side
Biometh under strike with the light
We defy the shadows
of the night
We did it!
you
