Should I be the peppy type
Or Should I be the Sweet Thing?
Should I deal in sex appeal or charm?
If I stick to charm will I have lure enough?
If I'm full of pep will I seem pure enough- sure enough
Should I be sweet? And sing of spring and roses?
Should I be- hot for a spot with where the fields of cotton grow?
If I am sweet, you may turn up your noses.
And if I'm hot- you may think I'm no more then a maid should know.
I give you art, and lets suppose you like it.
I'm in your heart, then spoil it all with-
WHA DEET DEE DOO DA DOO
So I repeat, should I seem sweetly
(Aria)
Or just get- hot for a spot in the South
And yell of it
I do both
And thats just for the hell of it
Should I be hot or sweet?
Its up to you.
