Fitting windows (working), the customer lent me a radio as I had left mine on another job. It was tuned to Radio 2 soI left it there, might as well. During the day, up popped Karen Carpenter singing "....you're so vain, you probably think this song is about you......." to which I realised that it fucking IS! It is about whoever she's singing about, so what is she on about? "You're so vain".......she's having a pop at him (I'm presuming that the subject is male) about being vain for thinking that the song is about him! It is, otherwise why is she singing it? So by that rationale, he's not really vain for thinking that the song is about him because it is about him, so he's done nothing wrong. Follow? Or Kylie Simon or whoever it was.
At this point I changed the station in furious anger and listened to something hip, dude!
Actually, it's not much of a song if our Kylie started singing sense "you're not vain, because you're correct in thinking that this song is about you......." is not quite as catchy. Sorry Kylie, perhaps you were simply utilising artistic license and I shouldn't be as pedantic in future when listening to lyrics from top tunes like the fucker you came up with.
Karen and Mr Carpentry
