Personality lyrics

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!
