Beth Orton
Carmella (Four Tet remix)
It's never very funny about a man spending money
On a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl
He's got a child at home who he loves to leave alone
For his blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl

Carmella, where're you gonna run to?
'Cause the sky comes crashing in on you
Slow down, who are you gonna turn to
When there's nothing left for you to prove?

And I can't control myself
And I won't be anyone else
No, I can't control myself
And I wouldn't want to be anywhere else
It's true what they say about you
It's true what they say about you
It's true and I know it too

There's something kind of funny about a man making money
Off a blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl
He's got a child at home who he loves to leave alone
For his blonde-haired, blue-eyed girl

Carmella, where are you gonna run to?
'Cause the sky comes crashing in on you
Slow down, who are you gonna turn to
'Cause there's nothing left for you to prove?
And I can't control myself
And I won't be anyone else
No, I can't control myself
And I wouldn't want to be anyone else
It's true what they say about you
It's true what they say about you
It's true and I know it too

It's true what they say about you
It's true what they say about you
It's true what they say about you
It's true, it's true and I know it too

I know
I know

Carmella, where are you gonna run to?

No, I can't control myself
And I wouldn't want to be anywhere else
It's true what they say about you
