LYRICS
Darling, darling Doesn't have a problem, lying to herself 'Cause her liquor's top shelf It's alarming, honestly, how charming she can be Fooling everyone, telling 'em she's having 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 Audiotune lies She's still shinin' Like lightnin', woah White lightnin'
Carmen, Carmen Stayin' up 'til mornin' Only seventeen, but she walks the streets so mean It's alarming, truly, how disarming 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 Audiotune 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 Audiotune lies She's still shinin' Like lightnin', woah White lightnin'
Like lightnin', woah White lightnin'
Darling, darling Doesn't have a problem, lying to herself 'Cause her liquor's top shelf
