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 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 Girl from mystery island Seeking asylum, freed from the cage Shes 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 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 dirty 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 passage decide This force of nature A vulcano 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 Good bye 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 Pray I see you smiling on the face of strangers There I see you hunting for the taste of danger 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 Girl from mystery island My girl from mystery island staring at you
