Christmas Rape Song

"Radio Bans ‘Baby It’s Cold Outside’ Over Claims It’s A Rape Song"

Funny that I ran across stories about this today. On the drive in to work this morning this song came on the radio and as I listened to the lyrics, I raised my eyebrows in mock shock!

I really can't stay (Baby it's cold outside) [No means no?]
I gotta go away (Baby it's cold outside)
This evening has been (Been hoping that you'd dropped 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)
Well maybe just a half a drink more (I'll put some records on while I pour) [GET HER DRUNK?]

The neighbors might think (Baby it's bad out there)
Say what's in this drink? (No cabs to be had out there) [slipped her a Mickey?]
I wish I knew how (Your eyes are like starlight now)
To break this spell (I'll take your hat, your hair looks swell) (Why thank you)
I ought to say no, no, no sir (Mind if move in closer?)
At least I'm gonna say that I tried (What's the sense of hurtin' my pride?)
I really can't stay (Baby don't hold out)
Baby it's cold outside

Ah, you're very pushy you know?
I like to think of it as opportunistic

I simply must go (Baby it's cold outside)
The answer is no (But baby it's cold outside) [GETTING FORCEFUL]
The welcome has been (How lucky that you dropped in)
So nice and warm (Look out the window at that storm)
My sister will be suspicious(Gosh your lips look delicious!)[Unwanted sexual advance]
My brother will be there at the door (Waves upon a tropical shore)
My maiden aunt's mind is vicious (Gosh your lips are delicious!)[Ignore her and keep making unwanted sexual advances]
Well maybe just a cigarette more (Never such a blizzard before) (And I don't even smoke) [WHAT KIND OF 'CIGARETTE'?]

I've got to get home (Baby you'll freeze out there)
Say lend me a coat? (It's up to your knees out there!)
You've really been grand, (I feel when I touch your hand) [Unwanted sexual advance]
But don't you see? (How can you do this thing to me?)
There's bound to be talk tomorrow (Think of my life long sorrow!)
At least there will be plenty implied (If you caught pneumonia and died!) [Death Threat!]
I really can't stay (Get over that old out)
Baby it's cold
Baby it's cold outside
Okay fine, just another drink then [DATE RAPE!]
That took a lot of convincing! [A LOT OF 'CONVINCING'? A LOT OF DRUGS AND ALCOHOL!]
