♬ Lyrics

Mata Hari
I'm a godless spy
I'm a spy, I uncover
All of your secrets, I want them
There's no stopping me now
I'm a liar
Playing the game of desire
Ain't gonna leave no survivors
Would you fall for me now?
Just like Cleopatra
The army of lovers
I start a fire
Yalan da mən, yanan da mən, yaman da mən
Ma-Ma-Ma-Mata Hari
Mata Hari
Ma-Ma-Ma-Mata Hari
Mata Hari
Mata Hari
Undercover
I am a dangerous lover
Drinking my poisonous water
And you're under my spell
Mesmerizing
Moving my hips, you are trying
You can't resist, try to fight it
Got a story to tell
Just like Cleopatra
The army of lovers
I start a fire
Yalan da mən, yanan da mən, yaman da mən
Ma-Ma-Ma-Mata Hari
Mata Hari
Ma-Ma-Ma-Mata Hari
Mata Hari
Mata Hari
Ma-ma-ma-ma, ma-ma-ma-ma
Ma-ma-ma-ma, ma-ma-ma-ma
Just like Cleopatra
Let's start a fire
Let'ѕ go
Ma-ma-ma-ma, Mata Hari
Ma-ma-ma-ma, ma-ma-ma-ma, Mata Hari
Mata Hаri
