Carmen

Darlin', darlin', doesn't have a problem

Lyin' to herself, 'cause her liquor's top shelf

It's alarmin', honestly, how charmin' she can be

Foolin' everyone, tellin' 'em she's havin' fun

She says, "You don't want to be like me"

"Don't wanna see all the things I've seen"

"I'm dyin', I'm dyin'"

She says, "You don't want to get this way"

"Famous and dumb at an early age"

"Lyin', I'm lyin'"

The boys, the girls, they all like Carmen

She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes

She laughs like God, her mind's like a diamond

Audio tune lies, she's still shinin'

Like lightnin', woah

White lightnin'

Carmen, Carmen, stayin' up till mornin'

Only seventeen, but she walks the streets so mean

It's alarmin', truly, how disarmin' you can be

Eatin' soft ice cream, Coney Island queen

She says, "You don't want to be like me"

"Lookin' for fun, gettin' high for free"

"I'm dyin', I'm dyin'"

She says, "You don't want to get this way"

"Street walk at night, and a star by day"

"It's tirin', tirin'"

The boys, the girls, they all like Carmen

She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes

She laughs like God, her mind's like a diamond

Audio tune lies, she's still shinin'

Like lightnin', woah

White lightnin'

Baby's all dressed up, with nowhere to go

That's the little story of the girl you know

Relyin' on the kindness of strangers

Tyin' cherry knots, smilin', doin' party favours

Put your red dress on, put your lipstick on

Sing your song, song, now the camera's on

And you're alive again

Mon amour, je sais que tu m'aimes aussi

Tu as besoin de moi

Tu as besoin de moi dans ta vie

Tu ne peux vivre sans moi

Et je mourrais sans toi

Je tuerais pour toi

The boys, the girls, they all like Carmen

She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes

She laughs like God, her mind's like a diamond

Audio tune lies, she's still shinin'

Like lightnin', woah

White lightnin'

Like lightnin', woah

White lightnin'

Darlin', darlin', doesn't have a problem

Lyin' to herself, 'cause her liquor's top shelf
