I really can't stay (but baby, it's cold outside)
I've got to go away (but baby, it's cold outside)
This evening has been (been hoping that you'd drop in)
So very nice (i'll hold your hands, they're just like ice)
My mother will start to worry (beautiful what's your hurry?)
My father will be pacing the floor (listen to the fireplace roar)
So really I'd better scurry (beautiful please don't hurry)
But maybe just a half a drink more (put some records on while I pour)
The neighbors might think (baby, it's bad out there)
Say what's in this drink? (no cabs to be had out there)
I wish I knew how (your eyes are like starlight now)
To break this spell (i'll take your hat, your hair looks swell)
I ought to say, no, no, no sir (mind if I move in closer?)
At least I'm gonna say that I tried (what's the sense in hurtin' my pride?)
I really can't stay (oh baby don't hold out)
But baby, it's cold outside
I simply must go (but baby, it's cold outside)
The answer is no (but baby, it's cold outside)
Your welcome has been(how lucky that you dropped in)
So nice and warm (look out the window at this dawn)
My sister will be suspicious (gosh your lips look delicious)
My brother will be there at the door (waves upon the tropical shore)
My maiden aunts mind is vicious (gosh your lips are delicious)
But maybe just a cigarette more (never such a blizzard before)
I've gotta get home(but baby, you'd freeze out there)
Say lend me a coat(it's up to your knees out there)
You've really been grand (i thrill when you touch my hand)
But don't you see? (how can you do this thing to me?)
There's bound to be talk tomorrow (think of my lifelong sorrow)
At least there will be plenty implied (if you got pnuemonia and died)
I really can't stay (get over that old out)
Baby, it's cold
Baby, it's cold outside
Honestly, that song has always creeped me out.Ad Dean Martin to the list.
Feels like we're headed towards: A Celebrity To Be Outed As Not A Sexual Predator
Probably should update the title of the thread to: "A-list Celebrity to be Outed as NOT a sexual predator"
It would be more shocking...
one of my favorite Christmas songs. hadn't really thought about it until a couple years ago when the internet started talking about how truly creepy it wasAd Dean Martin to the list.

As someone whose familiarity with this song comes from the movie, “Elf”, I just don’t get it. Are Americans so dumbed down that they don’t understand innuendo anymore? Perhaps it’s just too subtle for the Slut Walk crowd. There once was a time that people didn’t brag about their sexual conquests in public. Women used to actually play coy with their suitors and it’s captured beautifully in the lyrics of “Baby, It’s Cold Outside”.
The next line in the article says a lot:Tom Servo said:
Really. The tone of the song is encapsulated by a scene where Zooie is being unknowingly stalked while taking a shower by Will?This adorable scene between Will Farrell and Zooie Deschanel encapsulates the real tone of the song:
Thanks for the counterpoint, I think a lot of people are interpreting this song from a current times point of view and forgetting that the lyrics were written in 1944.Tom Servo said:

Um... yeah.... that tone is called "creepy".
Honestly, I've always thought that song was a little creepy. He won't let her leave, she asks what's in her drink, etc etcWorking retail--I have especially grown to dislike xmas music--but I truly despise the song "Baby, it's cold outside". First of all--it's a terrible song. Secondly--the song could end in 5 seconds with the simple phrase "I'll get my sweater". As a side note (and I want to make crystal clear that I have zero intent for this to twist politics in this thread--I just think it's a pretty interesting dynamic regarding this song)---apparently the song might have some roots in starting violent jihadism according to a fareed zakaria special.

Yeah, back when women knew to stay in the kitchen with all her makeup on and a drink ready for her man lest she get smacked around a bit.Thanks for the counterpoint, I think a lot of people are interpreting this song from a current times point of view and forgetting that the lyrics were written in 1944.
Simpler times for sureYeah, back when women knew to stay in the kitchen with all her makeup on and a drink ready for her man lest she get smacked around a bit.

Hasn't this always been the whole point of office Christmas parties?It wouldn't feel like Christmas at all without inappropriate behavior.
At one place I worked it was. In three years there I attended three parties, and at least one person got fired each year for something they did at the party.Hasn't this always been the whole point of office Christmas parties?
It's one way to cull the bad sheep from the herd.At one place I worked it was. In three years there I attended three parties, and at least one person got fired each year for something they did at the party.
Yeah.... remember the good old days..... when being gay was culturally unacceptable, blacks couldn't go to the same schools as whites, and women knew better than to hurt the pride of a man who just wants sex.Thanks for the counterpoint, I think a lot of people are interpreting this song from a current times point of view and forgetting that the lyrics were written in 1944.

"The couple’s revised lyrics are adorably consensual, opening with “I really can’t stay” sung by Liza and “Baby, I’m fine with that” sung by Lemanski.
Most notably, when Liza sings, “I ought to say no, no, no,” Lemanksi responds with “You reserve the right to say no.”"
this is just awful lyricism
