《The Masochism Tango》歌词

[00:00:00] The Masochism Tango - Tom Lehrer

[00:00:01] Another familiar type of love song is the passionate or

[00:00:03] Fiery variety

[00:00:04] Usually in tango tempo

[00:00:06] In which the singer

[00:00:07] Exhorts his partner to haunt him and taunt him and

[00:00:12] If at all possible to consume him with a kiss of fire

[00:00:18] This

[00:00:24] Particular illustration of this genre is called

[00:00:27] The Masochism Tango

[00:00:41] I ache for the touch of your lips dear

[00:00:45] But much more for the touch of your whips dear

[00:00:50] You can raise welts

[00:00:51] Like nobody else

[00:00:53] As we dance to the Masochism Tango

[00:01:01] Let our love be a flame not an ember

[00:01:05] Say it's me that you want to dismember

[00:01:10] Blacken my eye

[00:01:12] Set fire to my tie

[00:01:14] As we dance to the Masochism Tango

[00:01:21] At your command

[00:01:23] Before you here I stand

[00:01:25] My heart is in my hand

[00:01:28] Yeechh

[00:01:36] It's here that I must be

[00:01:39] My heart entreats

[00:01:40] Just hear those savage beats

[00:01:42] And go put on your cleats

[00:01:44] And come and trample me

[00:01:49] Your heart is hard as stone or mahogany

[00:01:53] That's why I'm in such exquisite agony

[00:01:57] My soul is on fire

[00:01:59] It's aflame with desire

[00:02:01] Which is why I perspire when we tango

[00:02:06] You caught my nose

[00:02:10] In your left castanet love

[00:02:14] I can feel the pain yet love

[00:02:18] Ev'ry time I hear drums

[00:02:22] And I envy the rose

[00:02:25] That you held in your teeth love

[00:02:30] With the thorns underneath love

[00:02:33] Sticking into your gums

[00:02:38] Your eyes cast a spell that bewitches

[00:02:42] The last time I needed twenty stitches

[00:02:46] To sew up the gash

[00:02:48] You made with your lash

[00:02:50] As we danced to the Masochism Tango

[00:02:54] Bash in my brain

[00:02:55] And make me scream with pain

[00:02:57] Then kick me once again

[00:02:59] And say we'll never part

[00:03:01] I know too well

[00:03:03] I'm underneath your spell

[00:03:05] So darling if you smell

[00:03:06] Something burning it's my heart hiccup

[00:03:09] 'Scuse me

[00:03:10] Take your cigarette from its holder

[00:03:14] And burn your initials in my shoulder

[00:03:19] Fracture my spine

[00:03:20] And swear that you're mine

[00:03:22] As we dance to the Masochism Tango
