"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…
Yeech!
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
That 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."

An interesting anon request to be sure! Had a lot of fun writing it with dirk though. *Double pistol and a wink*
We then relinquished lyrical control when we discovered the intensity.
Lyrical credit to @lyricalkarkat below the cut.
I ache for the touch of your lips, dear
But much more for the touch of your fists, 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 I'm who makes you want to surrender
Blacken my eye
Set fire to my tie
As we dance to the Masochism Tango
At your command
Before you here I stand
Your head is in my hand
(Yeechh!)
It's here that I must be
My heart entreats
Just hear those savage beasts,
Your robots got me beat,
So come and dance with 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
We're caught in throes
Some deft marionettes, love
I can feel the strings yet, love
Every cord that you strum
And I envy the prose
That you hide with your teeth, love
With the thorns underneath, love
We're sticking to our guns
Your eyes cast a spell that bewitches
And sometimes, well my breath truly hitches
You sew up the gash
That I caused being brash
As we danced to the Masochism Tango
Make me your bane
Together 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
'Scuse me!
Take my bayonet from its holder
And ink your initials in my shoulder
Puppet my mind
And swear that you're mine
As we dance to the Maso-chism Tango

What is this masterpiece I accidentally stumbled upon and why have I never heard of it before?!
Good sir, I might have to travel back in time and marry you. We can tango together 😉
