Tom Lehrer - Masochism tango

I ^Emache for the touch of your ^Amlips, dear But much ^D7more for the touch of your ^Gwhips, dear ^B7You can raise welts like ^Emnobody ^Amelse As we ^B7dance to the masochism ^Emtango

Le^Emt our love be a flame, not ^Aman ember Say it's ^D7me that you want to dis^Gmember ^B7Blacken my eye, set ^Emfire to my ^Amtie As we ^B7dance to the masochism ^Emtango

At your ^Amcommand be^D7fore you here I ^Gstand My ^Emheart is in my ^Amhand (XX1212) It's ^Ebdim7here that I must be^{E E7} My heart en^Amtreats, just ^D7hear those savage ^Gbeats And ^Emgo put on your ^Amcleats and ^D7come and trample ^Gme ^B7

Your ^Emheart is hard as stone or ma^Amhogany Which is ^D7why I'm in such exquisite ^Gagony My ^B7soul is on fire, it's a^Emflame with ^Amdesire Which is ^B7why I perspire when we ^Emtango

You caught my ^Cnose ^C7 In your left casta^Fnet, love I can feel the pain^B7 yet, love Ev'ry time I hear ^Emdrums And I envy the ^Crose ^C7 That you held in your ^Fteeth, love With the thorns under^B7neath, love Sticking into your ^Emgums ^B7

Your ^Emeyes cast a spell that be^Amwitches The ^D7last time I needed twenty ^Gstitches To ^B7sew up the gash that you ^Emmade with your ^Amlash As we ^B7danced to the masochism ^Emtango

Bash in my ^Ambrain and ^D7make me scream with ^Gpain Then ^Emkick me once ^Amagain and ^Ebdim7say we'll never part ^{E E7} I know too ^Amwell I'm ^D7underneath your ^Gspell So, ^EmDarling, if you ^Amsmell something ^D7burning, it's my heart^{G B7}

Take ^Emyour cigarette from its^Am holder And ^D7burn your initials in my ^Gshoulder ^B7Fracture my spine and ^Emswear that you're ^Ammine As we ^B7dance to the masochism ^Emtango
