Baby, It's Cold Outside

Political correctness Sometimes goes a bit too far, For certain things should be accepted Just the way they are. The controversy swirling now About a certain song Recorded many years ago Appears, to me, just wrong. The lyrics, in the "Me too" glare May seem like they do prove A woman's being pressured By a man who's on the move. She claims she has to leave And he convinces her to stay Ostensibly for sex, though It's not black and white, but gray. In 1944 the words Were funny, cute and flirty But underneath a microscope They're creepy, even dirty. There's so much we can focus on Within the "Me too" zone That when it comes to classic songs, They should be left alone.
