Whatever you want from me, whatever you want I’ll do

Try to squeeze a drop of blood from a sugarcube

Try to be more assured, try to be more right there

Try to be less uptight, try to be more aware

Whatever you want from me, is what I want to do for you

You’re sweeter than a drop of blood from a sugarcube

And though I like to act the part of being tough

I crumble like a sugarcube for you

Whatever you want from me, whatever you want I’ll do

I will try

—Yo La Tengo, “Sugarcube”
