DEVILMENT - Girl From Mystery Island 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 pa**age decide [Bridge] This force of nature A volcano meant to blow Where the hell did you come from, angel? Where the f** 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
