Link: [Carly Simon]
Not every song that
will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian”
in the eyes of this world. For some will
be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously
fervent rants of rebellion. Nonetheless,
be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another)
and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.
You’re So Vain
Carly Simon
You walked into the
party
Like you were
walking onto a yacht
Your hat
strategically dipped below one eye
Your scarf it was
apricot
You had one eye on
the mirror
As you watched
yourself gavotte
And all the girls
dreamed
That they'd be your
partner
They'd be your
partner
And
You're so vain
You probably think
this song is about you
You're so vain
You’re so vain
I'll bet you think
this song is about you
Don't you
Don't you
You had me several
years ago
When I was still
quite naïve
Well you said that
we made such a pretty pair
And that you would
never leave
But you gave away
the things you loved
And one of them was
me
I had some dreams
They were clouds in
my coffee
Clouds in my coffee
And
You're so vain
You probably think
this song is about you
You're so vain
You’re so vain
I'll bet you think
this song is about you
Don't you
Don't you
I had some dreams
They were clouds in
my coffee
Clouds in my coffee
And
You're so vain
You probably think
this song is about you
You're so vain
You’re so vain
I'll bet you think
this song is about you
Don't you
Don't you
Well I hear you
went up to Saratoga
And your horse
naturally won
Then you flew your
Lear jet up to Nova Scotia
To see the total
eclipse of the sun
Well you're where
you should be all the time
And when you're not
you're with
Some underworld spy
Or the wife of a
close friend
Wife of a close
friend
And
You're so vain
You probably think
this song is about you
You're so vain
You’re so vain
I'll bet you think
this song is about you
Don't you
Don't you
Don’t you
You're so vain
You probably think
this song is about you
You're so vain
You probably think
this song is about you
You're so vain
You probably think
this song is about you
You're so vain
You probably think
this song is about you
You're so vain
You’re so vain
I'll bet you think
this song is about you
Don't you
Don't you
Don’t you
Nobody Does It
Better
Carly Simon
Nobody does it
better
Makes me feel sad
for the rest
Nobody does it
Half as good as you
Baby
You're the best
I wasn't looking
But somehow you
found me
I tried to hide
from your love light
But like Heaven
above me
The spy who loved
me
Is keeping all my
secrets safe tonight
And nobody does it
better
Though sometimes I
wish someone could
Nobody does it
Quite the way you
do
Why'd you have to
be so good
The way that you
hold me
Whenever you hold
me
There's some kind of
magic inside you
That keeps me from
running
But just keep it
coming
How'd you learn to
do the things you do
And nobody does it
better
Makes me feel sad
for the rest
Nobody does it
Half as good as you
Baby baby
Baby
You're the best

I'm not a huge fan and I've heard both these songs more times than I can count, or care about, so I'll just skip clicking the play button...
ReplyDeleteShe's no Carole King.
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Grace!!!
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Adullamite!!! Yeah, she's a much better singer!
ReplyDeleteI always liked Carly Simon and I used to sing You're so vain all the time. I loved that song
ReplyDeleteThanks for stopping by, my dear Ann!!! She keeps insisting that it is not about James (Taylor), but...
ReplyDeleteJames Taylor was never mentioned as the subject of that song - the most persistent rumor was that it was about Mick Jagger or Warren Beatty..
ReplyDeleteThanks for the info, my dear Grace! I suppose I could have made it up in my own mind.
