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 "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 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.
