Lyrics

She was sweet sixteen, baby beauty queen
Straight white teeth, bathed in beauty cream
Priss don't drink and priss don't smoke
Shit don't stink and don't take jokes
Botoxed in bobby socks. cold as ice
All the boys were like white on rice
The end result is still the same, you can't go back the way you came

Drunk on mint juleps on the tennis court, the wealthy widow wanted more than sport
The tennis pro thought it was inappropriate, the wealthy widow thought that they should go for it
She giggled, pickled, tanned as leather
Sacks of sand in her cashmere sweater
Oh madame, the way you waste my time, it's so divine
Kissing the concrete you'd swear it was skin, her manicure secretes original sin
Oh madame, your taste for steak and wine serves to impress me

You're so vain, I bet you don't think this song is about you, profane jane, go back the way you came, the end result is still the same
You're so vain, I bet you don't think this song is about you, champagne jane, go back the way you came, the end result is still the same

So many eager sinners, only 7 deadly sins; hell's so god damn crowded that there's no one getting in
The line goes to the river styx, but she can get you in

It was work, but the work was fun
What will they say when they see what we done?
What will they say when they see what we do?
10-9-8-7-6-5-4-3-2-One of us has got to go
One of us has got to cum
Bury me in mistletoe
Put a dollar on my tongue
You're so vain
