Mystery Girl
Yeah Yeah Yeahs Lyrics

It was the struggle of the century
Everyone was excited to see the girl who had tamed the tiger.

And all the grown men came to see
Even the most experienced men were curious about the girl.

The girl who tamed the tiger, yeah yeah
This girl had accomplished something incredible by taming a tiger.

The heart of southern lovebirds
She had won the hearts of people from the South.

They found her under the sea
People had discovered her in an unexpected place.

She said she came from cell block three
She had an interesting, mysterious background.

The girl hit hot like a barracuda baby
The girl was attractive with a fierce personality.

She floated on air like a crest of wave
She moved with grace and confidence.

She was a primal institution
She was an important figure known for her natural abilities.

She was a danger to herself, yeah
Her own risk-taking behavior worried those around her.

Mad loving by the cold-hearted
People who lacked emotions showed great interest in her.

Take a big breath, because we just started
People were excited to see what would happen next.

Mystery girl, mystery girl
She was an enigma, and people were intrigued by her.

Keep on faking your mystery world
She pretended to keep a lot hidden.

Cause the mystery boys will be your toys, yeah
Mysterious men would be fascinated by her.

Not a day goes by I want to disappear
The artist felt overwhelmed by their infatuation with her.

Into her eyes a mother pearl
The color of her eyes captivated the artist.

And my head feels dead with all this useless fighting
The singer's overthinking was leading to exhaustion.

But my heart ain't dead, cause it keeps on loving
The singer's feelings for her remained strong despite the struggle.

There be your toys, alright
She had a spellbinding effect on people.
