You're so Vain by Carly Simon

"You're so vain (you're so vain)
I bet you think this song is about you
Don't you don't you?"

Of course he does, because it is.

Yeah, but the point is that she knew he would assume any song she wrote was about him, whether it was or not.


My submission for this thread is "Subdivisions" by Rush. Great song, but I have always hated these lyrics:

Drawn like moths, we drift into the city
The timeless old attraction
Cruising for the action
Lit up like a firefly
Just to feel the living night



Cruising for THE action???? Why not cruising for SOME action?
