I noticed that the only Christmas song that Dipper and I ever did together was 'Christmas, Don't Be Late', so asked Dipper if he minded doing a Christmas song with me this year. He told me that if I could find a good duet song, he'd do it with me. The only one I could think of was 'Baby It's Cold Outside,' but the lyrics as they were originally written didn't fit Dipper and I.
Dipper then proposed a challenge: Make the song lyrics work, and he'd do the song with me. Well, I enjoy challenges like this, so I immediately sat down, and this is what I wrote up.
I really can't wait - Bobby, it's cold outside It's getting real late - Bobby, it's cold outside This evening has been - Been hoping that you'd drop in So very nice - At least warm your hands, they're cold as ice My father will start to worry - Bobby, wait. What's your hurry Be bothered and be pacing the floor - Can't you hear the fireplace roar So really, I'd better scurry - Bobby, wait. please don't hurry Well, maybe one glass of milk more - Put some music on while I pour
Don't know what to think - Bobby, it's bad out there Can you get me that drink - No lights to be had out there I wish I knew how - It's getting near midnight now You could act so cool - Don't run back home, we've got no school I ought to go try to rest my fur - Come sit by the fire, closer At least I'm gonna give it a try - What's the sense in making me cry I really can't stay - Bobby, don't go out
Ahh, but it's cold outside - Bobby, it's cold outside
I simply must go - But, Bobby, it's cold outside Please don't say no - But Bobby, it's cold outside Your kindness has been - I'm lucky that you dropped in So nice and warm - Please don't go out into that storm My father may get suspicious - These cookies really are delicious He's probably waiting next door - Stay with me a little bit more I know you're really ambitious - Man, they really are delicious Well, maybe one glass of milk more - Never been a problem before
I've got to go out - Oh, Bobby, you'll freeze out there Hey, Dipper, don't pout - It's up to your knees out there You've been quite a friend - I don't want this night to end But you don't see - How can you do this thing to me You know I'll be back tomorrow - The milk will just mask my sorrow Dipper, when have I ever lied - Don't know what I'd do if you died I really can't stay - Bobby, don't go out
Ahh, but it's cold outside - Bobby it's cold outside
