[00:02.606]In my life, I was Noel Gruber who worked at taco bell in uranium city, Saskatchewan
[00:08.644]But in my dreams I played a different role.
[00:14.245]I was Monique Gibeau in post-war France!
[00:21.685]A hooker with a heart of black charcoal
[00:32.316]I write poems to burn by firelight
[00:37.633]Drink champagne and guzzle gin
[00:42.706]Good girls call me "the town bicycle"
[00:47.222]Don't knock it 'til you've tried my life of sin
[00:51.485]Oh, Claude, my pimp, knows never mess with me
[00:57.050]Last prick did that faded quick to black
[01:01.603]I have no idea where to find him, officers
[01:06.113]But if you do, please mention that I'd
[01:08.693]Like to have returned the pretty knife
[01:11.357]That I stuck ten times in his back!
[01:19.785]For I sing songs until the break of dawn
[01:25.361]I embrace a new man every night
[01:28.033]My life's one never-ending carnival
[01:32.561]A world of boozy-floozy flashing light
[01:34.940]I want to be that ****ed up girl
[02:01.982]He said, "I think I am in love with you"
[02:06.253]I've heard that lie a million times before
[02:11.035]Oh, tonight I give in to the fantasy
[02:15.026]Take love when you can, when you're a whore
[02:19.823]For I sing songs until the break of dawn
[02:25.927]I embrace a new man every night
[02:28.343]My life's one never-ending carnival
[02:33.114]A world of boozy-floozy flashing light
[02:35.508]I want to be that ****ed up girl
[02:49.619]So now I sell my love for *****
[02:57.345]In some rat-infested Chinese dive
[03:03.446]At night I burn myself with cigarettes
[03:08.759]Just to somehow prove I'm still alive
[03:20.494]Eight months later I catch typhoid flu
[03:26.067]Kicked out, I see the ugly light of day
[03:32.983]Dying in an alley, a priest kneels down to me-
[03:45.989][Ricky (as priest, in French accent):]"My child, do you have any final words to the lord you'd like to say?"
[03:51.066]"Oui. tell him that, like him, I choose to burn out rather than fade away!"
[04:01.215]For I sing songs until the break of dawn
[04:08.646]I embrace a new man every night
[04:12.098]My life's one never-ending carnival
[04:17.159]A world of boozy-floozy flashing light
[04:19.566]For I sing songs until the break of dawn
[04:23.559]I embrace a new man every night
[04:25.677]My life's one never ending carnival
[04:29.136]A world of boozy-floozy flashing light
[04:30.725]I want to be that ****ed up girl
[04:33.403]I wanna be that ****ed up
[04:35.263]Girl...
[04:35.786][Ocean/Constance:]Broken heart, a flask of gin
[04:36.862]Tattooed with a safety pin
[04:37.657]Teeth all stained with nicotine
[04:38.721]Running nylons, shattered dreams
[04:40.041]Super crusty, holy terror
[04:41.369]Wild eyes and black mascara
[04:42.692]Broken heart, a flask of gin
[04:44.021]Tattooed with a safety pin
[04:45.619]Teeth all stained with nicotine
[04:47.208]Running nylons, shattered dreams
[04:48.544]Super crusty, holy terror
[04:49.865]Wild eyes and black mascara
[04:51.473]If I could have just one dream...
[04:54.129]If he could have just one dream...!
[04:55.724]I'd be that ****ed up girl!
