Composer(s): George Gershwin; Ira Gershwin

Jimmy: 
Frankie, dear, your birthday gift reveals to me 
That at heart you're really not so bad
If I add, your funny face appeals to me
Please don't' think I've suddenly gone mad
You have all the qualities of Peter Pan
I'd go far before I'd find a sweeter pan 
And yet 

I love your funny face
Your sunny, funny face 
For you're a cutie 
With more than beauty 
You've got a lot 
Of personality N.T. 
A thousand laughs I've found 
In having you around
Though you're not Gloria Swanson
For worlds I'd not replace 
Your sunny, funny face

Frankie: 
Needn't tell me that I'm not so pretty, dear
When my looking glass and I agree
In the contest at Atlantic City, dear
Miss America I'd never be
Truth to tell, though, you're not such a bad lot yourself
As a Paul Swan, you are not so hot yourself
And yet

I love your funny face
Your sunny, funny face 
You can't repair it
So I declare it 
Is quite all right  
Jimmy: 
Like Ronald Colman? 
Frankie: 
So's your old man! 
Yet it's very clear 
I'm glad when you are near
Though you're no Handsome Harry 
For worlds I'd not replace 
Your sunny funny face

I love that funny face
That sunny, funny face 
Thought it upsets one, in time, it gets one 
That's true, for you 
Have personality for two
Those eyes! Those nose! Those cheek! 
Won't make a movie sheikh
But though you're not patootie
For worlds I'd not replace 
Your sunny, funny face

Frankie: [to dog] 
I love your funny face
Your sunny, funny face 
You never bother 
About your father
Have you no shame? 
You're just a mutt and nothing but! 
Yet when you wag your tail
You'll never be for sale
Though you're no Rin Tin Tin, dear
For worlds I'd not replace 
Your sunny, funny face
