Making Faces (From "Easter Parade") - Ирвинг Берлин

Lonesome little shopgirl

Sitting home alone

No boy about

To take her out

She is very pretty

But nobody knows

Lonesome little Rose

Hasn’t any clothes

Beautiful faces need beautiful clothes

Satins and laces, nice ribbons and bows

An ankle may be a joy

But any boy who gazes

Won’t warble its praises

Unless it’s covered by attractive hose

Many a shopgirl whom nobody knows

Would be the top girl in musical shows

If she were dressed in the best

From her head right down to her toes

For beautiful faces need beautiful clothes
