Peter Schickele - Love Me

{Enos Presley}
Treat me like a fool
Treat me mean and cruel
But love me

Break my faithful heart
Tear it all apart
But love me

{Background singers}
Won't you love me

{Enos Presley}
And if you ever go
Darling, I'll be oh
So lonely

I'll be sad and blue
Cryin' over you
Dear only

I would beg and steal

{Background singers}
Beg and steal

{Enos Presley}
Just to f...

{Background singers}
Just to feel

{Enos Presley}
...feel your heart

{Background singers}
I want your heart

{Enos Presley}
Beating so close to mine

{Background singers}
So close to mine

{Enos Presley}
And if you ever go
Darling, I'll be oh
So lonely

I'll be sad and blue
Cryin' over you
Dear only

What would a person in my position do?

{Background singers}
He would beg and steal

{Enos Presley}
Really? Just to... just to feel?

{Background singers}
Yes, just to feel

{Enos Presley}
Well, how 'bout you? What do you want?

{Background singers}
I want your heart

{Enos Presley}
You do? All four of you? Where do you want it?

{Background singers}
So close to mine

{Enos Presley}
Ah, that's sweet

And if you ever go
Darling, I'll be oh

(continues to stretch "oh", slowly rising up the register until landing on the final high note)

So lonely!
