Good Song: You’re So Vain by Carly Simon

Bad Lyrics: A real classic by Ms. Simon that still features some so-so lyrics.

You walked into the party
Like you were walking onto a yacht

By coming up a gangplank? Wearing a captain’s hat? With a certain seafaring joie de vivre?

You had one eye in the mirror

You know what that means: the other eye is a vampire.

As you watched yourself gavotte

Ah yes, gavotte - the French peasant dance. You’re so vain, Carly, you probably thought this was a good rhyme.
