Carmen

Lana Del Rey

Darling, darling, doesn't have a problem
 Lying to herself 'cause her liqueur'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 want to be like me
 Don't wanna see all the things I've seen
 I'm dying, I'm dying
 She says you don't want to 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 b*tterflies, bats her cartoon eyes
 She laughs like god, her mind's like a diamond
 Buy her tonight, she's still shining
 Like lightning, ohh, like lightning

Carmen, carmen, staying up til morning
 Only seventeen, but she walks the streets so mean
 It's alarming truly how disarming you can be
 Eating soft ice cream
 Coney Island Queen

She says you don't want to be like me
 Looking for fun, getting high for free
 I'm dying, I'm dying
 She says you don't want to 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 b*tterflies, bats her cartoon eyes
 She laughs like god, her mind's like a diamond
 Buy her tonight, she's still shining
 Like lightning, ohh, like 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 favors
 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 b*tterflies, bats her cartoon eyes
 She laughs like god, her mind's like a diamond
 Buy her tonight, she's still shining
 Like lightning, ohh, like lightning

Like lightning, ohh, like lightning

Darling, darling, doesn't have a problem
 Lying to herself 'cause her liqueur's top shelf
