Verse 1:
Jimmy:
Frankie, dear, your birthday gift reveals to me
That at heart youâre really not so bad.
If I add, y our funny face appeals to me.
Please dontâ think Iâve suddenly gone mad.
You have all the qualities of peter pan;
Iâd go far before Iâd find a sweeter pan
And yet
Refrain:
I love your funny face,
Your sunny, funny face;
For youâre a cutie
With more than beauty
Youâve got a lot
Of personality n.t.
A thousand laughs Iâve found
In having you around.
Through youâre not gloria swanson,
For worlds Iâd not replace
Your sunny, funny face.
Verse 2:
Frankie:
Neednât tell me that Iâm not so pretty, dear,
When my looking glass and I agree,
In the contest at atlantic city, dear,
Miss america Iâd never be,
Truth to tell, though, youâre not such a bad lot yourself;
As a paul swan, you are not so hot yourself.
And yet.
Refrain 2:
I love your funny face,
Your sunny, funny face;
You canât repair it,
So I declare it
Is quite all right -
Jimmy:
Like ronald colman?
Frankie:
Soâs your olâ man!
Yet itâs very clear,
Iâm gladwhen you are near.
Though youâre no handsome harry
For worlds Iâd not replace
Your sunny funny face.
Refrain 3:
I love that funny face,
That sunny, funny face;
Thought it upsets one,
In time, it gets one -
Thatâs true, for you
Have personality for two.
Those eyes! those nose! those cheek!
Wonât make a movie sheik,
But though yourâe not patootie,
For worlds Iâd not replace
Your sunny, funny face.
Extra chorus:
Frankie: [to dog]
I love your funny face,
Your sunny, funny face;
You never bother
About your father.
Have you no shame?
Youâre just a mutt and nothing but!
Yet when you wag your tail,
Youâll never be for sale.
Though youâre no rin tin tin, dear,
For worlds Iâd not replace
Your sunny, funny face.
