The Lyrics

I wanted to call this "Narcissist Party", cause that's what it's about,
people who have gone overboard with loving themselves to the
point that all they really need to do is carry a mirror...
I went to a Narcissist party, I saw people with big heads
There were mirrors everywhere you looked
And fine, expensive threads
When I got to that there party, no one spoke to me
Cause everyone was self-involved, I could have been a flea

Chorus:
But it's alright now, I've learned my lesson well
You see, some folks are so vain, they only love themselves

I saw one guy at the mirror, checking out his ass
Then he gave himself a kiss, his lips right on the glass
yes there was so much vanity, self-love filled the air
If Prince Charles had walked into in the room,
No one would have cared

But it's alright now, I've learned my lesson well
You see, some folks are so vain, they only love themselves

They were handing out door prizes, mirrors round and square
Everyone was constantly
Checking out their hair
I said hello to one guy, Joe, he was drinkin' beer
But all he said was my oh my, aren't you glad I'm here!?

But it's alright now, I've learned my lesson well
aside: (well, it took me over 40 years)
You see, some folks are so vain, they only love themselves

Someone opened up a closet door and out jumped Mary Look Good
She'd been primpin' for an hour, cause she thought she should
If you go to a self-love party, I wish you a lotta luck
But if everyone was a narcissist, I'd rather LOVE a SKUNK

But it's alright now, I've learned my lesson well
You see, some folks are so vain, they only love themselves

You know, my interpretation of self-love party is something completely different and something much closer to... letīs say Tupper-Ware for the self-love man (or woman, my ex-girlfriend went to one such party here in Sweden once). ;-)

I'd say I loved this one but it wasn't about me. I will if you make the next one about me. (hehe). Nice parody Royce.

I'm sure glad there are none of these types on this here site. (you all know who you are, hehe)
