Mystery Dance(Acoustic w/ Extra Verse) — текст песни (Elvis Costello)

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."
