      Fuck, don’t remind 2020 that he’s still alive at all, as I’d hate this bastard of a year to take him; it’s already sucked all the life, joy, and fun, out of everything else, and I’d hate for it to finish the great Tom Lehrer.

      Women back then thought men were supposed to be toxically dominant. I actually think it’s very manly when a guy lets a woman take control of him. It shows humility and trust. This is just my theory on why he never married.

    AS a 13 yr old Way Back When, (1959! Yes, time does go that far back) I saw this title on an LP album (ah, the memories!) and asked my very Catholic Dad, 'Dad, what's masochism?' Pause. Then without looking up from his newspaper (remember those?) he pointed and said 'The dictionary is over there.' So it was. 'Oh', I said, and understood the song at once.

    I ache for the touch of your lips, dear
    But much more for the touch of your whips, dear
    You can raise welts
    Like nobody else
    As we dance to the Masochism Tango
    Let our love be a flame, not an ember
    Say it's me that you want to dismember
    Blacken my eye
    Set fire to my tie
    As we dance to the Masochism Tango
    At your command
    Before you here I stand
    My heart is in my hand .
    (Yeechh!)
    It's here that I must be
    My heart entreats
    Just hear those savage beats
    And go put on your cleats
    And come and trample me
    Your heart is hard as stone or mahogany
    That's why I'm in such exquisite agony
    My soul is on fire
    It's aflame with desire
    Which is why I perspire when we tango
    You caught my nose
    In your left castanet, love
    I can feel the pain yet, love
    Ev'ry time I hear drums
    And I envy the rose
    That you held in your teeth, love
    With the thorns underneath, love
    Sticking into your gums
    Your eyes cast a spell that bewitches
    The last time I needed twenty stitches
    To sew up the gash
    You made with your lash
    As we danced to the Masochism Tango
    Bash in my brain
    And make me scream with pain
    Then kick me once again
    And say we'll never part
    I know too well
    I'm underneath your spell
    So, darling, if you smell
    Something burning, it's my heart . . . (hiccup)
    'Scuse me!
    Take your cigarette from its holder
    And burn your initials in my shoulder
    Fracture my spine
    And swear that you're mine
    As we dance to the Masochism Tango

    The comments are either about Julian Devorak or wondering the feedback of when this was released. I'm here from a Sanders sides tumblr post about Remus and Logan

      Same, I was sexually repressed to like age 10 in the sense that I never had ANYTHING explained to me. So not only am I a lesbian, but I have some weird frigging kinks.

    Love lyric videos, great for playlists to listen to while cleaning. However, when people include musical intros of a different song on a *lyrics* video it ruins it completely and I can't even finish the video it's so annoying.

  • @arbiterally101
    @arbiterally101 11 лет назад +13

    The meaning is rather simple. It's a joke. A comic eschewing of standard relationship principles and entwining it with masochism.
    (For the uneducated, Masochism is the deriving of pleasure from pain, though it is mostly used to say one derives a sexual joy from pain.)
    With that in mind, it's a joke. Not really anything more.
