It was the struggle of the century
And all the grown men came to see
The girl who tamed the tiger, yeah yeah
The heart of southern lovebirds
They found her under the sea
She said she came from cell block three
The girl hit hot like a barracuda baby
She floated on air like a crest of wave
She was a primal institution
She was a danger to herself, yeah
Mad loving by the cold hearted
Take a big breath
Because we just started
Mystery girl
Mystery girl
Keep on faking your mystery world
Cause the mystery boys
Will be your toys, yeah
Cause the mystery boys
Will be your toys
Not a day goes by I want to disappear
Into her eyes a mother pearl
And my head feels dead
With all this useless fighting
But my heart ain't dead
Cause it keeps on loving
The girl hit hard like a barracuda baby
She floated on air like a crest of wave
She was a primal institution
She was a danger to herself yeah
Mad loving by the cold hearted
Take a big breath
Because we just started
Mystery girl
Mystery girl
Keep on faking your mystery world
Cause the mystery boys
Will be your toys, yeah
Cause the mystery boys
Will be your toys, yeah
There be your toys
There be your toys, alright
And all the grown men came to see
The girl who tamed the tiger, yeah yeah
The heart of southern lovebirds
They found her under the sea
She said she came from cell block three
The girl hit hot like a barracuda baby
She floated on air like a crest of wave
She was a primal institution
She was a danger to herself, yeah
Mad loving by the cold hearted
Take a big breath
Because we just started
Mystery girl
Mystery girl
Keep on faking your mystery world
Cause the mystery boys
Will be your toys, yeah
Cause the mystery boys
Will be your toys
Not a day goes by I want to disappear
Into her eyes a mother pearl
And my head feels dead
With all this useless fighting
But my heart ain't dead
Cause it keeps on loving
The girl hit hard like a barracuda baby
She floated on air like a crest of wave
She was a primal institution
She was a danger to herself yeah
Mad loving by the cold hearted
Take a big breath
Because we just started
Mystery girl
Mystery girl
Keep on faking your mystery world
