Carmen, Carmen, staying up till 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.

Chorus

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, ooh-ooh, white lightning.

BBaby’s all dressed up with noC♯mwhere to go.

G♯mThat’s the little story of the Agirl you know.

ReBlying on the kindness of C♯mstrangers,

ATying cherry knots, smiling, doing party favours.

F♯m Put your red dress on, put your lipstick Aon.

Sing your song, song, now the camera’s on.

F♯m And you’re alive again
