Tom Lehrer's, "The Masochism Tango"
The Funny Lyrics:
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.
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.
Why They're funny:
Tom Lehrer is an absolute genius. This is actually my favorite song, but I couldn't put the whole thing, so I picked my favorite part. I would have it memorized if it weren't so long.

Tom Lehrer's, "The Masochism Tango"
The Funny Lyrics:
I long 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
But much more for the touch of your whips, dear
You can raise welts like nobody else
As we dance to the masochism tango
Why They're funny:
i can just see this guy tangoing around with some girl in a corset and a thorny rose in his teeth, and wearing a whip as a belt.
