Lyrics:Carly Simon/Don Was Music:Carly Simon/Don Was | |
A sweet young man sat on my chair | |
With a tape machine and a face of fear | |
He asked how does it feel to be who you are | |
I thought, this boy really thinks I'm a star | |
I answered him with humility | |
And then asked him if he'd like some tea | |
Interview, who's interviewing who | |
Are you interviewing me | |
Or am I interviewing you | |
He asked if the rug was some ancient, lovely thing | |
I lied and said 'Yes a gift from a king' | |
I watched his arms and how his lips moved | |
He asked me if my parents approved | |
He asked to see my Ruby ring | |
And if as a child I had liked to sing | |
Interview, who's interviewing who | |
Are you interviewing me | |
Or am I interviewing you | |
I said yes, Oh yes 400 times | |
'You're so open' he said 'do you always tell the truth?' | |
'Never,' I said, 'What's that?' | |
But how would it feel to hold me in your arms | |
You could get to know me down on the farm | |
Then you could see me as the child I've become | |
'Cause being grown up can be so lonesome | |
Baby, how would it feel to hold me now | |
Baby, how would it feel to hold me now | |
Interview, who's interviewing who | |
Are you interviewing me | |
Or am I interviewing you |
