{ Carmen´s Boogie }

Hate the opera, it´s to high brow
But there´s one number I can dig right now
Just like shifting without a clutch
Arrived the boogie with the Carmen touch

You ain´t livin´ if you have missed
The long-haired music with a crew-cut twist
Don´t love often and don´t love much
But love that boogie with a Carmen touch

It rips up floors, it knocks down walls
And it´s the reason that Niagara falls
It even made Gibraltar rock
It ain´t a thing among there bird can mock

The day it hit in old Bombay
The Hindu couldn´t charm the snake away
They say in French in Greek and Dutch
The boogie wasn´t boogie ´till it got the Carmen touch!

Knew a fella, a cap´n(?) named Red
He played fine piano but they shot him dead
Red deserved it -- the such and such
He bluffed(?) on boogie with the Carmen touch

What brings saucers around from Mars
And what do Mason(s?) lid(?) their Mason jars
What make baby´s cry out so much
They want their boogie with the Carmen touch

I can(´t?) reveal the way I feel
I love so much the Carmen touch!

I love the boogie
I love the boogie
I love the boogie
I love the boogie
I love the boogie
I love the boogie
The boogie with a Carmen touch

I can(´t?) reveal the way I feel
I love so much the Carmen touch!

Don´t love often and don´t love much
Love that boogie with a Carmen touch

Love that boogie
With a Carmen tooooouch!
