Song lyrics

When Madame Pompadour was on a ballroom floor
Said all the gentlemen, "Obviously
The madame has the cutest personality"

And think of all the books about du Barry's looks
What was it made her the toast of Paris?
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 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 knees
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't ya 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 personality
