The Rentals
Sweetness and Tenderness
[Verse 1]
I need to figure this out
And find where my place is
I don't mean to threaten anyone
No need to get so defensive

[Pre-Chorus]
You say you're with me, I know you don't care
You say you're with me, I know you don't care

[Verse 2]
I guess it's real simple
It's just like when Gary Numan say
You're just a viewer, cold and distant
You are just business, you're worthless

[Pre-Chorus]
You say you're with me, I know you don't care
You say you're with me, I know you don't care

[Chorus]
Sweetness (Oh, sweetness)
I need some tenderness (Tenderness)
Sweetness (Oh, sweetness)
I need some tenderness (Tenderness)

[Verse 3]
You know it's just like Judas say
I've been your right hand man all along
My admiration for you hasn't died
I haven't forgotten how put down we are

[Pre-Chorus]
You say you're with me, I know you don't care
You say you're with me, I know you don't care

[Chorus]
Sweetness (Oh Sweetness)
I need some tenderness (Tenderness)
Sweetness (Oh Sweetness)
I need some tenderness (Tenderness)

[Bridge]
Come away with me, come away with me
Sweetness
Come away with me, we can hide in peace
And we can finally rest

[Outro]
This melody's wrong and I do care
This melody's wrong, yes, I care
