The Madder You Are (The Cuter You Get)

Don't try and look so tough

I know what you're trying to do

You think you have to put on a show

For me to pay attention to you

Well baby you've got the floor

And I'm all eyes and ears

You don't have to act angry

For me to say what you want to hear

Oh Scarlet, I give a damn

Now you can act your age

Bravo, I love you

Now you can come offstage

Though I hate to see you simmer down

Even a little bit

'Cause a girl good looking as you

The madder you are, the cuter you get

The madder you are, the cuter you get

Now your blues eyes are flashing

And your cheeks are getting red

I can tell that I'm not helping things

With the clumsy words I said

I think I understand where you're coming from

I know what you want me to do

But you're pretending to still be mad at me

I'm falling more in love with you

Oh Scarlet, I give a damn

Now you can act your age

Bravo, I love you

Now you can come offstage

Though I hate to see you simmer down

Even a little bit

'Cause a girl good looking as you

The madder you are, the cuter you get

The madder you are, the cuter you get

Cool off the drama

How did this begin

What got you so excited

So I can do it again

Sometimes I think that lovers

Really enjoy the little tests of will

You love to give me your advice

And I love to give you a thrill

I guess it's nice to get crossways

'Cause sometimes we both can win

The best part of a good clean fight

Is patching things back up again

Oh Scarlet, I give a damn

Now you can act your age

Bravo, I love you

Now you can come offstage

Though I hate to see you simmer down

Even a little bit

'Cause a girl good looking as you
