Lyrics

[00:14.170] When madam pompadour was on a ballroom floor
[00:17.750] Said all the gentlemen obviously
[00:22.200] The madam has the cutest personality
[00:28.440] And think of all the books about du Barry's looks
[00:31.990] What was it made her the toast of pare
[00:36.420] She had a well developed personality
[00:42.820] What did Romeo see in Juliet
[00:46.320] Or Figaro in figarette
[00:49.820] Or Jupiter in juno
[00:54.420] You know
[00:57.060] And when Salome danced and had the boys entranced
[01:00.560] No doubt it must have been easy to see
[01:05.030] That she knew how to use her personality
[01:10.530]
[01:40.540] A girl can learn to spell and take dictation well
[01:44.030] And never sit on the boss's left knee
[01:48.380] Unless she's got a perfect personality
[01:54.630] A girl can get somewhere in spite of stringy hair
[01:58.180] Or even just a bit bowed at the knee
[02:02.660] If she can show a faultless personality
[02:08.900] Why are certain girls offered certain things
[02:12.580] Like sable coats and wedding rings
[02:16.060] By men who wear their spats right
[02:20.450] That's right
[02:23.130] So don't you say I'm smart and have the kindest heart
[02:26.750] Or what a wonderful sister I'd be
[02:31.200] Just tell me how you like my (ruff) personality
[02:38.000] Baby you've got the cutest
[02:42.110] Personality
[02:46.180]
