Mr Tender Lyrics - Graham Parker

Mr. tender is something I'm not I pulled too tight when we tied the knot 

Surrender is something I can't, I can't let go and I rave and I rant 

But I resolve to solve this problem and be the one you need 

And one day you'll see you will call me "mr tender" 

Mr. tender it's almost a joke if it were funny and didn't make you choke 

A pretender yeah that's what I am, acting the part but it's really a sham 

But I am working, working hard to give the love you need 

And one day you'll see you call me "mr tender" 

I will smooth the edges from my roughness and lose the venom in my toughness 

I resolve to solve this problem and be everything you need 

Mr tender yeah! that's what I'll be you won't believe that it's coming from me 

The agenda is nothing but love I'll make it come from below and above 

And I am working working so hard to be everything you need
