You’re So Vain

Posted on September 26, 2008October 18, 2015 By Doriano No Comments on You’re So Vain

I love Carly Simon and especially her classic “You’re So Vain” which she’s never revealed who it was about. Rumors have always been that it was about Warren Beatty or Mick Jagger who actually sings background vocals in the song.

Here’s a shortened version of the song followed by the full version live performance. Then the lyrics.

You’re So Vain

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 theyd be your partner
Theyd be your partner, and…
Youre so vain, you probably think this song is about you
Youre so vain, Ill bet you think this song is about you
Dont you? dont you?
You had me several years ago when I was still quite naive
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…
I had some dreams they were clouds in my coffee
Clouds in my coffee, and…
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 youre where you should be all the time
And when youre not youre with
Some underworld spy or the wife of a close friend
Wife of a close friend, and…
