Carmen #1
Darling, darling, doesn't have a problemLying to herself 'cause her liquor's top shelfIt's alarming honestly how charming she can beFooling everyone, telling them she's having fun
She says, "You don't want to be like meDon't wanna see all the things I've seen."I'm dying, I'm dyingShe says, "You don't want to get this wayFamous and dumb at an early age."Lying, I’m lying
The boys, the girls, they all like CarmenShe gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyesShe laughs like God, her mind's like a diamondAudio tune lies, she's still shiningLike lightning, ohh, white lightning
Carmen, Carmen, staying up til morningOnly seventeen, but she walks the streets so meanIt's alarming truly how disarming you can beEating soft ice creamConey Island Queen
She says, "You don't want to be like meLooking for fun, getting high for free."I'm dying, I'm dyingShe says, "You don't want to get this wayStreet walk at night, and a star by day."It's tiring, tiring
The boys, the girls, they all like CarmenShe gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyesShe laughs like God, her mind's like a diamondAudio tune lies, she's still shiningLike lightning, ohh, white lightning
Baby's all dressed up with nowhere to goThat's the little story of the girl you knowRelying on the kindness of strangersTying cherry knots, smiling, doing party favorsPut your red dress on, put your lipstick onSing your song, song, now the camera's onAnd you're alive again
Mon amour, je sais que tu m'aimes aussiTu as besoin de moiTu as besoin de moi dans ta vieTu ne peux plus vivre sans moiEt je mourrais sans toiJe tuerais pour toi[English translation:My love, I know you love me, tooYou need me,You need me in your life,You can not live without me,And I'd die without you,I would kill for you]
The boys, the girls, they all like CarmenShe gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyesShe laughs like God, her mind's like a diamondAudio tune lies, she's still shiningLike lightning, ohh, white lightning
Like lightning, ohh, white lightning
Darling, darling, doesn't have a problemLying to herself 'cause her liquor's top shelf
