Carly Simon - Dishonest Modesty Lyrics
(carly simon/zach wiesner)You come on strong telling everyoneAbout your latest roleHow you saved the movie, stole the showWell everybody knowsAnd if you have no time for all your offersYoull see that I get calledAnd if you have no time for all your menYoull see that I get balledWell I dont expect humilityBut what about some good old fashioned dishonest modestyYou say that you can understudyAll the other partsYou can write a song that will make us cryThat touches all our heartsAnd you can house and gardenVogue and glamour, mademoiselleBut I know you can ***** and screwAnd penthouse just aswellI dont expect humilityBut what about some good old dishonest modestyYou try to be uniqueBut somehow somethings wrongcause your flower childish vision of lifeCannot last too longYoure over thrity and underweightThough you call yourself petiteAnd you hang around with all the clownsYou think theyre so eliteWell I dont expect humilityBut what about some good old fashioned dishonest modesty
