Lyrics for Song: Carmen
Lyrics for Album: Born To Die - The Paradise Edition [2012]
Darling, darling, doesn't have a problem
Lying to herself 'cause her liquour's top shelf
It's alarming, honestly, how charming she can be
Fooling everyone, telling them she's having fun
She says you don't wanna be like me
Don't wanna see all the things I've seen
I'm dying, I'm dying
She says you don't wanna get this way:
Famous and dumb at an early age
Lying, I'm lying
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 shining
Like lightning, white lightning
Carmen, Carmen
Stayin' up 'til morning
Only seventeen, but she walks the streets so mean
It's alarming, truly, how disarmin' we can be
Eatin' soft ice cream, Coney Island Queen
She says you don't wanna be like me:
Workin' for fun; getting high for free
I'm dying, I'm dying
She says you don't wanna get this way:
Street-walk at night and a star by day
It's tiring, tiring
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 is still shining
Like lightning, white lightning
Baby's all dressed up with nowhere to go
That's 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 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 plus 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 shining
Like lightning, white lightning...
Like lightning, white lightning
Darling, darling, doesn't have a problem
Lying to herself 'cause her liquour's top shelf
