mysterious lady
so mysterious lady
하 진짜 모르겠어
so complicated
mysterious lady

무슨 수학경시대회
문제 푸는 것 보다

더 어려워 damn straight up
난 진짜 모르겠어
종잡을 수 없는 너의 맘
웃다가도 언제 그랬냐는 듯이
싹 바뀌어버리는 표정
넌 정말 요지경
예측 불가능해서
계속 네 눈치를 봐
헷갈리게 하지 넌 아직 잘
모르겠다면서
나를 저울질
이제 그만 해도 돼 그 여우짓
솔직 그게 답인거야
귀를 기울여 들어봐
머리가 아닌
심장이 외치는 소리
알쏭달쏭한 그대란
사람은 깊은 바닷속
so so 아리송해 baby
보일 듯 말 듯 한 그대 속은
나를 애타게 하지
그대 뭘 망설이고 있나요
그냥 솔직히 말해줘요
그대 역시 나와 같다는 걸
mysterious lady so mysterious

The lyrics suggest that the singer is intrigued by the mysterious lady and wants to know her better.
