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 in 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

I bet you think this song is about you

Don't you, don't you, don't 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

You're so vain

You probably think this song is about you

You're so vain

I bet you think this song is about you

Don't 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

I bet you think this song is about you

Don't you, don't you, don't you

Well I hear you went up to Saratoga

And your horse naturally won

Then you flew your Learjet 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

I bet you think this song is about you

Don't you, don't you, don't you
