Just for reference, 'rats in her hair' is a reference to a hairstyle that was popular at the time, and a 'straight front X.Y.Z.' is a reference to a type of women's attire popular at the time.

One thing I like about the old cartoons. From the time when sound came in 1928 and throughout the 1930s, the music never stops.
-
really fun stuff...a whole other world back then...great humor!
-
GREAT Cartoon! I LOVE The Version of "What Would`nt I Do For That Man" at least the Music! And Billy Murray and Chorus is AWESOME! I Have this Song on a Cylinder Record!

With Billy Murray doing the intro at 3:20. I hear him in the chorus, too. At least he went out singing.

At the 2-minute mark the Betty Boop prototype sings "What Wouldn't I Do for That Man?" (composer: Jay Gorney / lyricist E.Y. "Yip" Harburg). The song was introduced by Helen Morgan in two 1929 Paramount features: "Applause" and "Glorifying the America Girl." It was also sung by Lee Morse in the Paramount-Astoria short subject "A Million Me's" (released in 1930). Gorney and Harburg went on to write "Brother, Can You Spare a Dime?" in 1932.

Amazing how this artform peaked at such an early time, then declined afterwards. Eat your heart out Hanna-Barbera!

At 3:07 the animators tried but the female cat still looks like something out of a David Lynch movie

Wait, did she make his toenails grow? Is that supposed to be a joke about arousal? That's pretty funny. I've never met a dame that makes my toenails grow
