Mr. Torture
"Mr. Torture" is a song and single made by the German metal band Helloween.[1][2] This single is similar to the "If I Could Fly" single with the addition of "Mr. Torture" as the first track. Like many others of the band's lyrics, this song is rather humorous and not to be taken seriously. It is about Mr. Torture giving women sexual pleasure by practising BDSM.
