Personality

Personality - Johnny Mercer/The Pied Pipers

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' settee

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

Rufff

Personality

Baby you've got the cutest
