[MINERVA]
Why would a fellow want a girl like her
A frail and fluffy beauty?
Why can’t a fellow ever once prefer
A solid girl like me?

[CALLIOPE]
She’s a frothy little bubble
With a flimsy kind of charm
And with very little trouble
I could break her little arm!

[MINERVA]
Oh!

[MINERVA & CALLIOPE]
Oh!

Why would a fellow want a girl like her
So obviously unusual?
Why can’t a fellow ever once prefer
A usual girl like me?

[MINERVA]
Her face is exquisite, I suppose
But no more exquisite than a rose is
[CALLIOPE]
Her skin may be delicate and soft
But not any softer than a doe’s is

[MINERVA]
Her neck is no longer than a swan’s

[CALLIOPE]
She’s only as dainty as a daisy

[MINERVA]
She’s only as graceful as a bird

[MINERVA & CALLIOPE]
So why is the fella going crazy?

Oh why would a fellow want a girl like her
A girl who’s merely lovely
Why can’t a fellow ever once prefer
A girl who’s merely me?

[MINERVA]
She’s a frothy little bubble
With a frilly sort of air
And with very little trouble
I could pull out all her hair!
Hahaha!
[CALLIOPE]
Oh! Oh!

[MINERVA & CALLIOPE]
Oh why would a fellow want a girl like her
A girl who’s merely lovely
Why can’t a fellow ever once prefer
A girl who’s merely me?

What's the matter with the man?
What's the matter with the man?
What's the matter with the man?
