[English]

M-Mind, m-mind reader

M-Mind, m-mind reader

I need you to read my mind

I need your attention, all your time

Can you keep me satisfied?

I need, I need, I need, oh

If you wanna stay for life

Boy, don't play dumb, that's not my type

I'm not gonna tell you twice

I need, I need, I need, oh

You look confused, what more can I say?

I guess I'll just watch you get it your way

Guess there's no use in tryin' to explain

Oh no, stop watching and start listening

You look so good when you say I'm right

Keep up, 'cause you might be mine

I need you to read my mind

I need your attention, all your time

Can you keep me satisfied?

I need, I need, I need, oh

If you wanna stay for life

Boy, don't play dumb, that's not my type

I'm not gonna tell you twice

I need, I need, I need, oh

M-Mind, m-mind reader

What you need to be to please her

M-Mind, m-mind reader, uh-huh

Don't waste my breath on asking for more

I know, I've heard this conversation before

So how are we gonna do this? (Uh-huh)

'Cause you don't wanna lose it (nuh-uh)

And I'll tell you what the truth is, ah (I need, I need, I need, oh)

You look so good (good) when you say I'm right (I'm right)

Keep up, 'cause you might be mine

I need you to read my mind

I need your attention, all your time

Can you keep me satisfied?

I need, I need, I need, oh

If you wanna stay for life

Boy, don't play dumb, it's not my type

I'm not gonna tell you twice

I need, I need, I need, oh (I need a mind reader)
