You Probably Think This Blog Is About You

Most people remember Carly Simon's hit song "You're So Vain" and to this day she has not revealed who she wrote the song about. Many have asked and many have speculated, but no one knows for sure...except Carly, of course... and perhaps the person about whom she wrote it.

Below are some new lyrics to the same tune.

Who were they written about?

I'll tell....as soon as Carly does!


**********************************


You walked into the meeting
Like the queen of the debutantes

You had your speech so carefully prepared

And typed with the proper fonts

You had one eye on the camera

And one eye on the crowd

And then you dreamed

That you'd be convincing

But you're not convincing, and...

You're so vain

You probably think this blog is about you

You're so vain

I'll bet you think this blog is about you

Don't you? Don't you?

Well you fooled us several years ago

When we were still quite naive

And you said that we needed more overrides

Or else we should simply leave

And you took away the dough we need

And called it just a "cup of joe"

We had some dreams

They were clouds in our coffee

"Just another cup of coffee", and...

You're so vain
You probably think this blog is about you
You're so vain
I'll bet you think this blog is about you
Don't you? Don't you?

Well we hear you're going to negotiate now

Against a union with enormous clout

And you say that it's all under control

And in you we should have no doubt

But you don't inspire our confidence

With the things that you say and you do

To earn some respect

You need to change your demeanor

Change your demeanor, and...

You're so vain
You probably think this blog is about you
You're so vain
I'll bet you think this blog is about you
Don't you? Don't you?
