Lyric Mystery Dance - Elvis Costello

Lyric Song Mystery Dance: Romeo was restlesshe was ready to kill
He jumped out the window cause he couldn t sit still
Juliet was waiting with a safety net
He said yquot;Don t bury me cause I m not dead yetyquot;
Why don t you tell me bout the mystery dance
I wanna know about the mystery dance
Why don t you show me
cause I ve tried and I ve tried
and I m still mystified
I can t do it anymore and I m not satisfied
I can t do it anymore and I m not satisfied
Well I remember when the lights went out
and I was tryin to make it look like it was never in doubt
She thought that I knewand I thought that she knew
so both of us were willingbut we didn t know how to do it
chorus
Well I was down under the covers in the middle of the night
tryin to discover my left foot from my right
You can see those pictures in any magazine
But what s the use of looking when you don t know what they mean
chorus
