girl from mystery island - devilment lyrics
[verse 1]
piggy in the middle when the circus came to town
i was born with streaks of moonshine in my veins
scratching hallelujahs on the up and outward bound
i found my fay wray dancing in the rain
she was murder, she was cause
flowing from the jungle dams
wrapped in a fog that obscured those shores
she was growing wetter in her hinterlands
[chorus]
she was the perfume of pain
her love was acute and monster-baiting again
she wrestled beauty with the snarl of a cat
washed upon my beach like a matter of fact
a burning flame on the wicker man’s lap
the place where she rose peculiarity’s at
she was the essence of loss
hung out on a limb and giant aping the cross
[verse 2]
girl from mystery island
seeking asylum, freed from the cage
she’s quite an acrobat, the left off bedroom latch
a reddened snatch from open debate
she was native, she was pure
her sins original before
i liked her naked foreign cure
she made my conquered heart beat like the drumming of claws
[chorus]
she was the queen of delight
a wall to wall savage with the keenest of minds
she was a delirious sight
a belligerent witch of voodoo and the night
a filthy creature to my doctor moreau
the sway of dark hips was a reason to know
flashing invites with her animal eyes
they spoke of a realm where rites of p-ssage decide
[bridge]
this force of nature
a volcano meant to blow
where the hell did you come from, angel?
where the fuck did you go?
the moon is cold and i am pleading
this world is strange and so misleading
let me go, my soul is needing
the song beyond the gates
i rise now and set
my mind on the coastal road
i rise now and let you lie
goodbye
[verse 3]
my girl from mystery island
leaving asylum, freed to the skies
but why? i want you back
i will scour seven seas for you, turn out cemeteries for you
so pray, i see you smiling
on the face of strangers
and there i see you hunting
for the taste of danger
[chorus]
she was the perfume of pain
her love was acute and monster-baiting again
she wrestled beauty with the snarl of a cat
washed upon my beach like a matter of fact
a burning flame on the wicker man’s lap
the place where she rose peculiarity’s at
she was the essence of loss
hung out on a limb and giant aping the cross
[outro]
girl from mystery island
my girl from mystery island, staring at you
