I Double Dare You - 1937

Dr. Pitt-Payne in London UK 11 Aug 2001

If I should say the night is grand,
Would you demand a proof?
Or would you be indiff'rent and aloof.
You seem to think that half aloof
Is better than none
So maybe that's the reason
We're not havin' any fun.

I double dare you
To sit over here
I double dare you
To lend me your ear.
Take off your high hat
And let's get friendly.
Don't be a 'scarecat',
Say what do you care?
Can't you take a dare?
I double dare you
To kiss me and then
I double dare you
To kiss me again
And if that look in your eyes
Means what I'm thinkin' of
I double dare you
To fall in love with me,
I double dare you.

I double dare you
To sit over here
I double dare you
To lend me your ear.
Take off your high hat
And let's get friendly.
Don't be a 'scarecat',
Say what do you care?
Can't you take a dare?
I double dare you
To kiss me and then
I double dare you
To kiss me again
And if that look in your eyes
Means what I'm thinkin' of
I double dare you
To fall in love with me,
I double dare you.

If I should try
To read your mind,
Would I be up a tree?
I wish I knew
Just what you think of me.
Oh! You appear to be so shy
So henceforth I speak
Please pardon my presumption,
I hate playing hide and seek.

I double dare you
To sit over here
I double dare you
To lend me your ear.
Take off your high hat
And let's get friendly.
Don't be a 'scarecat',
Say what do you care?
Can't you take a dare?
I double dare you
To kiss me and then
I double dare you
To kiss me again
And if that look in your eyes
Means what I'm thinkin' of
I double dare you
To fall in love with me,
I double dare you.

I double dare you
To sit over here
I double dare you
To lend me your ear.
Take off your high hat
And let's get friendly.
Don't be a 'scarecat',
Say what do you care?
Can't you take a dare?
I double dare you
To kiss me and then
I double dare you
To kiss me again
And if that look in your eyes
Means what I'm thinkin' of
I double dare you
To fall in love with me,
I double dare you.
