Like lightning, light, like lightning The boys, the girls, they all like Carmen She gives them butterflies, bats her cartoon eyes Buy her tonight, she's still shining Darling, darling, doesn't have a problem Lying to herself 'cause her liquor's top shelf

My love, she speaks like silence Without ideals or violence She doesn't have to say she's faithful Yet she's true like fire, like ice People carry roses Make promises by the hour My love she laughs like the flowers Valentines can't buy her In the dime
