Lyrics
When I was a kid in school
Reflecting on childhood experiences in school.
They showed me symbols on a card
Introduction to symbols on a card, possibly related to psychic testing.
Then they sent them from a locked and bolted room
Symbols sent from a secure room, indicating a controlled environment.
I had to fake that it was hard
Having to pretend the task was challenging.
Circle, square, triangle, waves
Listing various geometric symbols and waves.
I got them crystal clear by the hour
Understanding symbols clearly with practice.
And all I said was ""may I please take a rest?""
Requesting a break, trying to conceal psychic abilities.
I didn't want them to know I was possessed
Hiding possession of psychic power from others.
With Psi Power
Repeating the refrain, emphasizing psychic power.
Psi Power
-Psi Power
-I can read your mind like a magazine
Claiming the ability to read minds and understand hidden secrets.
I see where you're at I know what you mean
-I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep
-When I was a teenage kid
Recalling teenage experiences of peering into others' minds.
And I hung around the streets
-I could see inside the mind
-Of any girl that I wanted to meet
-Wave, triangle, circle, square
-They opened to me like a flower
Geometric symbols opening up like a flower, depicting receptiveness.
How would you like to have your mind caressed?
Offering to caress minds but acknowledging possession of psychic power.
Can't you feel that I'm possessed
-With Psi Power
Repeating the refrain, reinforcing the influence of Psi Power.
Psi Power
-Psi Power
-I can read your mind like a magazine
Reiterating the ability to understand and reveal hidden secrets.
I see where you're at I know what you mean
-I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep
-Psi Power
Emphasizing Psi Power once again.
Psi Power
-Psi Power
-I can read your mind like a magazine
Repeating the theme of mind-reading and revealing secrets.
I see where you're at I know what you mean
-I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep
-It's like a radio you can't switch off
Comparing Psi Power to an incessant, uncontrollable radio signal.
There's no way to get peace of mind
-I'd like to live inside a lead-lined room
Expressing a desire to escape psychic abilities and seek peace.
And leave all this Psi Power behind
-Circle, square, triangle, waves
Reiteration of geometric symbols and waves as a burdensome gift.
It's a gift that soon turns sour
Highlighting the negative aspect of Psi Power.
Why don't they let me get some rest?
Expressing exhaustion and the difficulty of understanding psychic phenomena.
It's too much to understand and to digest
-Psi Power
Reaffirming the presence and impact of Psi Power.
Psi Power
-Psi Power
-I can read your mind like a magazine
Repeating the claim to read minds and know hidden meanings.
I see where you're at I know what you mean
-I get all the secrets that you'd rather keep
