When Madam Pompadour was on a ballroom floor
|
Said all the gentlemen "Obviously,"
|
"The madam has the cutest personality"
|
|
And think of all the books about Du Barry's looks
|
What was it made her the toast of Paree?
|
She had a well-developed personality
|
|
(What did Romeo see in Juliet?)
|
(Or Figaro in Figarette?)
|
(Or Jupiter in Juno?)
|
You know!
|
|
And when Salome danced and had the boys entranced
|
No doubt it must have been easy to see
|
That she knew how to use her personality
|
|
(A girl can learn to spell and take dictation well)
|
(And never sit on the boss's left knee)
|
(Unless she's got a perfect personality)
|
|
(A girl can get somewhere in spite of stringy hair)
|
(Or even just a bit bowed at the knee)
|
(If she can show a faultless personality)
|
|
Why are certain girls offered certain things
|
Like sable coats and wedding rings?
|
By men who wear their spats right?
|
(That's right!)
|
|
(So don'tcha say "I'm smart and have the kindest heart"
|
(Or "what a wonderful sister I'd be")
|
Just tell me how you like my

(Personality)
|
|
Baby, you've got the cutest
|
Personality!!
