Mystery Man

[Verse 1: Lou Barlow]

Earnest little lover, little mystery man, nothing thrills you like denial

There's nothing wrong with the need to please and children know no shame

Baby on your bended knees and she'd love to play your game

[Refrain: Lou Barlow]

She's a curious girl

Easily swayed by your force of will

Empty to be filled with the hunger for more

[Bridge: Lou Barlow]

What if time denies you, the key to your fulfillment fails?

Around the world again on a boat that sinks as it sails

[Verse 2: Lou Barlow]

Stand shoulders above her

Pick her up when you love her

Rub it right when you use her

Need it so bad, you abuse her

[Refrain: Lou Barlow]

But don't leave her alone

'Cause soon she'll be tasting the sweet unknown

If it feeds her candy, she'll follow it home

Make your claim

She's legally yours when she shares your name

But don't lose control 'cause you'll scare her away

Go on, beg her to stay
