On How to Be Lovely - Kay Thompson, Audrey Hepburn

MAGGIE.

Just listen and repeat after me:

MAGGIE / (JO) / BOTH.

On how to be lovely

(On how to be lovely)

You got to be happy

(You got to be happy)

When you can feel

light and gay

Then you’ll be lovely

as a holiday.

On how to be charming

(On how to be charming)

You got to be merry

(You got to be merry)

If only to weave a spell

And you’ll be lovely

As a carousel too.

I (I know you can) show how.

It’s (it's all in the) know-how.

And (and once you know) oh how

The world looks good to you

As it should to you.

On how to be lovely

(On how to be lovely)

You got to be jolly

(You got to be jolly)

When you can be fancy-free

And flash a smile that

Folks come flocking to see.

You’ll be as lovely

As can be.

Do-wee-oo

Do-wee-oo-ee

Do-wee-oo

Do-wee-oo-ee

Do-wee-oo

Do-wee-oo

Boo-diddly-ba-bau!

Ee-

Do-wee-oo

Do-wee-oo-ee

Do-wee-oo

Do-wee-oo-ee

Do-wee-oo

Do-wee-oo

Boo-diddly-ba-bau!

(Boo-diddly-ba-bau!)

Boo-diddly-ba-baa-pa-daa!

Can’t (can't do it with) make-up

You (you've just got to) wake up And (and startin’to) take up A life delirious

Nothing serious.

On how to be lovely

(On how to be lovely)

You got to be cheery

(You got to be cheery)

I’ll give you a guarantee

You don’t need dough

You don’t need a college degree.

Make sorrow incidental

(Let joy be monumental)

And you’ll be lovely

Do-wee-oo

Do-wee-oo (-ee)

Do-wee-oo

Do-wee-oo (-ee)

You’ll be as lovely

As can be
