Dishonest Modesty - Carly Simon

You come on strong telling everyone

About your latest role

How you saved the movie, stole the show

Well everybody knows

And if you have no time for all your offers

You’ll see that I get called

And if you have no time for all your men

You’ll see that I get balled

Well I don’t expect humility

But what about some good old fashioned dishonest modesty

You say that you can understudy

All the other parts

You can write a song that will make us cry

That touches all our hearts

And you can House and Garden

Vogue and Glamour, Mademoiselle

But I know you can Bitch and Screw

And Penthouse just aswell

I don’t expect humility

But what about some good old dishonest modesty

You try to be unique

But somehow something’s wrong

'Cause your flower childish vision of life

Cannot last too long

You’re over thrity and underweight

Though you call yourself petite

And you hang around with all the clowns

You think they’re so elite

Well I don’t expect humility

But what about some good old fashioned dishonest modesty
