TFT: Carly Simon


Not every song that will be featured here will be what is generally considered as being “Christian” in the eyes of this world.  For some will be anguished cries from the pit of despair, and others will be quite obviously fervent rants of rebellion.  Nonetheless, be assured that they will all be of our Heavenly Father (in one way or another) and I hope that you have been given ears to hear the message.


You’re So Vain
Carly Simon
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 on 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
You’re so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you
Don't you

You had me several years ago
When I was still quite naïve
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
You’re so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about 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
You’re so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you
Don't you

Well I hear you went up to Saratoga
And your horse naturally won
Then you flew your Lear jet 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
You’re so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you
Don't you
Don’t you

You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
You probably think this song is about you
You're so vain
You’re so vain
I'll bet you think this song is about you
Don't you
Don't you
Don’t you


Nobody Does It Better
Carly Simon
Nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it
Half as good as you
Baby
You're the best

I wasn't looking
But somehow you found me
I tried to hide from your love light
But like Heaven above me
The spy who loved me
Is keeping all my secrets safe tonight

And nobody does it better
Though sometimes I wish someone could
Nobody does it
Quite the way you do
Why'd you have to be so good

The way that you hold me
Whenever you hold me
There's some kind of magic inside you
That keeps me from running
But just keep it coming
How'd you learn to do the things you do

And nobody does it better
Makes me feel sad for the rest
Nobody does it
Half as good as you
Baby baby
Baby
You're the best
