I drop my shirt on the floor
The mirror smiles back at me encouragingly
But demanding that I should be wanting more
The chest and the arms, oh can you feel me now
Now you ought to love me more
Now you ought to be loved
Breathing is heavy, palms so sweaty
My grip is rough, my lips too dry
Seeking for pride to swallow

Throw your shirt on the floor
You smile back at me encouragingly
But demanding that I should be wanting more
The breasts and the legs, oh I want you to feel me now
Breathing is heavy, palms so sweaty
My grip is rough, your lips too dry
Seeking for pride to swallow
You know there's no pleasure without a little pain
Still building your confidence on this terrain
No drop of our sweat is wasted in vain
The earth spins around, and we'll do it again
When I play with you, it don't matter how many times I score
I always lose
When I play with you, it don't matter how many times I score
I always lose

Is that all you're gonna give me?
Definitely one of my favorite songs on the album. Hope this helps! As always, message me if you have
any revisions. It might be awhile before I upload the next tab; that solo is gonna take me some time
