Costello Elvis Mystery Dance lyrics

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`.

Chorus:
Why don`t you tell me about 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.

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 can`t do it anymore and I`m not satisfied. (repeat x6)
