A woman's a mystery, and Agatha Christie
Couldn't solve it if she had written the book
Mickey Spillane could never explain why
They do what they do or look like they look
And my two heroes, Sherlock and Nero
Couldn't come up with a clue
A woman's a mystery, a beautiful mystery
I love a mystery too
I'm hooked on the mystery of you

The first time we kissed
There was no way to miss
The intrigue in your private eye
Your lips were delicious, and I was suspicious
I thought I saw love in disguise
But you won't confess, and there's no way to guess
What you're thinking or failing to say
So all I can do is keep shadowing you
Until you give yourself away

Oh, a woman's a mystery, and Agatha Christie
Couldn't solve it if she had written the book
Mickey Spillane could never explain why
They do what they do or look like they look
And my two heroes, Sherlock and Nero
Couldn't come up with a clue
A woman's a mystery, a beautiful mystery
I love a mystery too
I'm hooked on the mystery of you

Just like the statues on Easter Island
The pyramids in the Egypt and Mexico
The more I explore you, the more I adore you
The more I'm confused by all that I know

Oh, a woman's a mystery, and Agatha Christie
Couldn't solve it if she had written the book
Mickey Spillane could never explain why
They do what they do or look like they look
And my two heroes, Sherlock and Nero
Couldn't come up with a clue
Oh, a woman's a mystery, a beautiful mystery
I love a mystery too
I'm hooked on the mystery of you

The world loves a mystery
We all love a mystery
I love a mystery too
I'm hooked on the mystery of you
Oh, sweet and mysterious you
I'm hooked on the mystery of you
Oh, sweet and mysterious you
