Lyrics

[Verse 1] Darlin', darlin' doesn't have a problem Lyin' 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 [Pre-Chorus] She says, "You don't wanna be like me Don't wanna see all the things I've seen I'm dyin', I'm dyin'" She says, "You don't wanna get this way Famous and dumb at an early age Lyin', I'm lyin'" [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 shinin' Like lightning, oh-oh Like lightning [Verse 2] Carmen, Carmen, stayin' up 'til morning Only seventeen, but she walks the streets so mean It's alarming, truly, how disarmin' you can be Eatin' soft ice cream, Coney Island queen [Pre-Chorus] She says, "You don't wanna be like me Lookin' for fun, gettin' high for free I'm dyin', I'm dyin'" She says, "You don't wanna get this way Street walk at night and a star by day It's tirin', tirin'" [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 shinin' Like lightning, oh-oh Like lightning [Bridge] 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 favors Put your red dress on, put your lipstick on Sing your song, song, now the camera's on And you're alive again [Interlude] 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 [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 shinin' Like lightning, oh-oh Like lightning Like lightning, oh-oh Like lightning [Outro] Darlin', darlin' doesn't have a problem Lyin' to herself 'cause her liquor's top shelf
