Verse 1
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." [flourish]
Chorus
Why don't you tell me 'bout the mystery dance?
I want to 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 - [flourish 2] do it anymore and I'm not satisfied
Verse 2
Well, I remember when the lights went out
And I was trying 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 [flourish]
Chorus
Why don't you tell me 'bout the mystery dance?
I want to 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 - [flourish 2] do it anymore and I'm not satisfied
Guitar Solo
Verse 3
Well, I was down under the covers in the middle of the night
Trying 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? [flourish]
Chorus
Why don't you tell me 'bout the mystery dance?
I want to 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 - [flourish 2] do it anymore and I'm not satisfied
Outro
I can't - [flourish 2] do it anymore and I'm not satisfied
