I'm the master of crosswords
but I can't solve your puzzle
you are a poker face
I delve for an answer
but you don't move a muscle.

I can't read your mind
it's a riddle to unpack
uncovering what's masked
wringing colors out of black
you are the hardest
(the hardest nut)
the hardest nut to crack
yes you are the hardest
(the hardest nut)
the hardest nut to crack
you're the hardest nut to crack
(the hardest nut to crack)
the hardest nut to crack
(the hardest nut to crack).
(Are you in my hearts?
Are you my only jack?
Are you in my full house?
I'm your dearest nut to crack.)

I read Hannibal Lecter
like recipes for dinner
but I'm lost in your case
the teachings are useless
with you I'm just a beginner.

I can't read your mind...
(You could be my breakfast or
you could be my snack
my name is macabre
I am dangerous to crack)

You're the hardest
harder than a diamond
Occam's razor doesn't cut
I'm squeezing
to see what you're made of
I can crack that freaking nut
you're my challenge
my muddled mission,
like the splitting of an atom
I get my power
from the fission.

I can't read your mind...
(I can be your girlfriend
or your Zodiac
your obsession or your patient
we are all your nuts to crack.)
