You’re In Pain - to tune of You’re So Vain - re April Ryan
Vanity | 11/25/19 | Self

Posted on 08/24/2019 9:46:29 PM PDT by zencycler

To the tune of “You’re so Vain”

You walked into the party
To see what April Ryan would talk about
You strategically set up out of the way
To take your video and then to get out


You had an invitation to be there
So you weren’t expecting a rout
But April thinks she’s a queen, so she said “go get ‘em partner, go get ‘em partner” and

You're in pain
You probably think it’s wrong that he beat you
You're in pain
I'll bet you think think it’s wrong that he beat you
Don't you?
Don't you?

Oh, they taught you several years ago
When you were still naive
Well, they said press freedom was for everyone
And that was something you did believe

But then April’s guard gave you a shove
Stole your stuff and made you leave
April thinks she’s a queen and she said you can’t film me, said you can’t film me and

You're in pain
You probably think it’s wrong that he beat you
You're in pain
I'll bet you think it’s wrong that he beat you
Don’t you?
Don’t you?

Great song with real and these lyrics :)

They should put satirical words to “Killing Me Softy” :)

I sense your disgust.

Luckily, we had the Doors, Stone Ponys, etc.

One camera makes you larger,
And another one makes you small
And the ones Jim Acosta gives you,
Don’t do anything at all
Go Ask April, when she’s ten feet tall

And if you go chasing Russians and you know you’re going to fall.
Tell’em the #Never-Trumps, now turned ‘reporters’ have given you the calls
And call April, when she was just small!

December/January of ‘72/’73...a long time ago when that song was climbing the charts! I remember the dates and times VERY well. She was a gorgeous blonde and a heck of a nice person....

A great song charting from late ‘72/early ‘73 DP! Thanks for the memory reminder! (I’ll have go to YouTube and see if that song is there.) A hot rod NOT stock ‘67 Camaro, a wonderful gal, great job, good friends, great times, never to come again. But that is okay, things are good up here in the Mountains. No complaints. Later DP.

You’re in pain
You probably think it’s wrong that he beat you

suggested edit: you probably just need another biscuit

Great job, btw!

I’ve always thought the whiney male vocal that comes in near the end was a clue. Let’s just say moss has never grown on him.

WOW good times!!!

ah, we won the life lottery and got to have those times once upon a time at least :)

The mountains...at 51 and with MORE than enough of NYC under the belt, mountains sound nice.
