Weihnachten steht vor der Tür

Ab heute darf ich, nach harten Verhandlungen, offiziell wieder Weihnachtslieder hören. Im Radio machen sie das schon seit Monaten - jedenfall immer eins am Morgen des jeweilig 25. eines Monats. Aber jetzt kann ich ja wieder...und hier gleich mein neuer Superfavorit von Dean Martin:

Baby, It´s Cold Outside (..yes, it is - nur noch 25 Grad Höchsttemparatur)

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 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, 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
Baby it's cold out side

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 droped in

So nice and warm
- look out the window at the snow

My sister will be suspicious
- gosh your lips look delcious

My brother will be there at the door
- waves upon the tropical shore

My maiden aunts mind is vicious
- gosh your lips are delicous

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 pneumonia and died

I really can't stay
- get over that old doubt

Baby it's cold
- Baby it's cold outside
