Lyrics Mystery Dance - Elvis Costello & The Imposters
Romeo
was
restless,
he
was
ready
to
kill.
He
jumped
out
the
window
cause
he
couldn't
sit
still.
Juliet
was
waiting
with
a
safety
net.
He
said
"Don't
bury
me
cause
I'm
not
dead
yet".
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
knew,
and
I
thought
that
she
knew,
So
both
of
us
were
willing,
but
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
I'm
gonna
walk
right
up
to
heaven
dodgeing
lightning
rods
I'm
gonna
have
this
very
personal
conversation
with
god
I
said
"You
got
the
information,
Why
don't
you
say
so?"
He'll
say
"Well
I've
been
around
and
I
still
don't
know."
