DENIAL IN WINTER (January 15)

(with apologies to Carly Simon)

I won ov-er the Party

(NOT part of some Putin plot!)

Bew-t-ful hair exquisitely brushed,

my skin tinted apricot

With one eye on the mirror

(am I great, or what?)

And all the girls wish I'd ask them to “date me”

ask them to “date me”, but

I’m not vain
It's just that everything is about me

I’m not vain,

I  know the song is always about me

So true!

So true!

That one I had years ago

when she still pretended “naive”

I told her she had a real pretty pair

and whichever wife I’d leave

But you know I lied, of course,

it’s my pedigree

I may be scum, but these are such dumb broads,

such God-damn dumb broads, but

I’m not vain

I know the song is always about me

I’m not vain,

I just know ALL songs are always about me

So true!

So true!
So true!

I may be scum, but these are such dumb broads,

such fuck-ing dumb broads, but

I’m not vain

I know the song is always about me

I’m not vain,

I just know ALL songs are always about me

So true!

So true!

When I am Em-per-or I’ll wear a toga

to hide my enormous butt

And if I play golf wearing a “dress” 

then I can cheat when I putt

I’m in the limelight all the time

but when I’m not, I’m with
some Russian guy

or the wife of a close friend,

wife of a close friend, but

I’m not vain

I just know everything is about me

I’m not vain,

I just know each and every song is about me

So true!

So true!

So true!

I’m not vain,

I just know each and every song is about me

I’m not vain,

I just know each and every song is about me
I’m not vain. . .
