Lyrics:

On how to be lovely (On how to be lovely)
You gotta be happy (You gotta be happy)
When you can be light and gay
Then you'll be lovely as a holiday
On how to be charming (On how to be charming)
You gotta be merry (You gotta be merry)
You've 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 gotta be jolly (You gotta 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
You can (Can) do it with make up
You (You) just gotta wake up
And (And) starting to take up
Life delirious, nothing serious
On how to be lovely (On how to be lovely)
You gotta be cheery (You gotta 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
You'll be as lovely as can be
