(Possibilities)
I've heard so much about 'em!
(Possibilities)
You just can't do without 'em!
Happy is the lot
Of a gal who's got
(What?)
Possibilities!
Now a woman can read all the greatest books
In the university,
But to get a date,
She must have great
Possibilities!
Now a girlie can dress in the finest clothes,
But she don't need finery.
Men will look your way
If you just display
Possibilities!
Possibilities,
Possibilities,
Happy is the lot
Of a gal who's got
Possibilities!
When Napoleon met lovely Josephine,
He forgot his strategy.
His mind became a blur
When he noticed her
Possibilities!
Why did Sir Walter Raleigh lay down his cape
Isn't told in histories.
He was just the light
To the girls with right
Possibilities!
(Possibilities)
I've heard so much about 'em!
(Possibilities)
You just can't do without 'em!
Happy is the lot
Of a gal who's got
Possibilities!
I'm tellin' this secret to all you girls,
How to win that guy with ease.
To win the one you adore,
Make him go for your
Possibilities!
You can go with a guy for a long long time
And try very hard to please,
But you'll get the sack
If he thinks you lack
Possibilities!
(Possibilities)
I've heard so much about 'em!
(Possibilities)
You just can't do without 'em!
Happy is the lot
Of the one who's got
(What?)
Possibilities!
Happy is the lot
Of a gal who's got
(whistle)
Possibilities!
