Lyrics

[Intro: Vanity] Let me tell you a story [Verse 1: Vanity] My favorite band in life Is playing town on Wednesday's night I wish to God I had the nerve to go The singer in the band's my type Not too big or small But I hate to let my inner feelings show [Chorus: Vanity & All] My made-up name is Vanity 'Cause a girl's best friend's her pride And a working girl don't have to tolerate the mailman's tricks And everybody gets three years of tribulation unless they lie But with the female, three times two equals six [Verse 2: Vanity & All] When I'm older, I wanna be a movie star Just like Greta Garbo Well, then I can tell everybody what to do Well, she was so cool It was plain to see that she was in control I bet she never played the part of anyone's fool [Chorus: Vanity & All] So, my made-up name is Vanity 'Cause a girl's best friend's her pride And a working girl don't have to tolerate the mailman's tricks (Oh no, oh no) Everybody gets three years of tribulation unless they lie But with the female, three times two equals six [Post-Chorus: Vanity] Play your song one time, baby girl I don't think they heard you now, baby [Instrumental Break] [Bridge: All] That's all I need to say because I think you understand Unless, of course, in another life you were a man [Chorus: Vanity & All] Please believe me when I tell you A girl's best friend's her pride A working girl don't have to tolerate the mailman's tricks (No, she don't) Everybody gets three years of tribulation unless they lie But with the female, three times two equals six (Won't somebody help me?) Please believe me when I tell you A girl's best friend's her pride A working girl don't have to tolerate the mailman's tricks (Sister, can you hear me?) Everybody gets three years of tribulation unless they lie But with the female, three times two equals six (Three times two—) (Sister, can you hear me talkin' to ya?) Please believe me when I tell you A girl's best friend's her pride (A girl's best friend's her pride) A working girl don't have to tolerate the mailman's tricks (Sister, can you hear me?) Everybody gets three years of tribulation unless they lie But with the female, three times two equals six
