-Darlin', darlin', doesn't have a problem
-Lyin' to herself 'cause her liquor's top shelf
-It's alarmin', honestly, how charming she can be
-Fooling everyone, tellin' 'em 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 dyin', I'm dyin'"
-She says, "You don't wanna 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
-Audio tune lies, she's still shining
-Like lightning, whoa, like lightning
-Carmen, Carmen, stayin' up till mornin'
-Only seventeen but she walks the streets so mean
-It's alarmin', truly, how disarmin' you can be
-Eatin' soft ice cream, Coney Island queen
-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
-Streetwalk at night, and a star by day
-It's tirin', tirin'''

-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
-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 mourrai sans toi
-Je tuerais pour toi
