Intro
Darling, darling, doesnt have a problem.
Lying to herself cause her liquors top shelf.
Its alarming, honestly, how charming she can be.
Fooling everyone telling how shes having fun.
She says, You dont want to be like me.
Dont want to see all the things Ive seen.
Im dying, Im dying.
She says, You dont want to get this way,
Famous and dumb at an early age.
Lying, Im lying.
Chorus
The boys, the girls, they all like Carmen.
She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes.
She laughs like God, her minds like a diamond.
Audiotune lies. Shes still shining
Like lightning, ooh-ooh, white lightning.
Carmen, Carmen, staying up till morning.
Only seventeen, but she walks the streets so mean.
Its alarming, truly, how disarming you can be.
Eating soft ice cream, Coney Island queen.
She says, You dont want to be like me,
Looking for fun, getting high for free.
Im dying, Im dying.
She says, You dont want to get this way,
Street walk at night and a star by day.
Its tiring, tiring.
Chorus
The boys, the girls, they all like Carmen.
She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes.
She laughs like God, her minds like a diamond.
Audiotune lies. Shes still shining
Like lightning, ooh-ooh, white lightning.
Babys all dressed up with nowhere to go.
Thats the little story of the girl you know.
Relying on the kindness of strangers,
Tying cherry knots, smiling, doing party favours.
Put your red dress on, put your lipstick on.
Sing your song, song, now the cameras on.
And youre alive again
Mon amour, je sais que tu m'aimes aussi,
Tu as besoin de moi,
Tu as besoin de mon dans ta vie.
Tu ne peux plus vivre sans moi
Et je mourrais sans toi.
Je tuerais pour toi.
Chorus
The boys, the girls, they all like Carmen.
She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes.
She laughs like God, her minds like a diamond.
Audiotune lies. Shes still shining
Like lightning, ooh-ooh, white lightning.
Like lightning, ooh-ooh, white lightning.
Darling, darling, doesnt have a problem.
Lying to herself cause her liquors top shelf.
