RAP BLOCK 1:
Oh man!...I was chilling out in Seville around the month of September and this freaky thing happened..ya..I can remember Bombs went off in the middle of the tracks, people on people in rows and stacks the scene was unbearable and the heat was terrible ... but then this fresh fly chica came walking by, a high-heeled goddess swinging a bottle of rye. She was smooth...she was fine...her eyes burned into mine She came in my direction and almost ran into my erection She said ..Hey Jos! I missed my connection cause of the insurrection

Or...no terrorism and more sexiness!

MID-SECTION
What you mean Carmen? Dont you see that youre twisting our love into something evil and bad? The answer is never easy but think of what we had. We burned with desire, burned like fire... skin on skin...and hips on hips...shooting forward on firewire lips Love is a force that holds one together, we have a bond thatll never never sever You in me and me in you, theres no way back now, Carmen...forget that bullfighter Escamillo, hes just a .fucking jerk!

RAP BLOCK 2:
So Carmensita, sit down and listen to me! I gave up my honour and job and was forced to run and lie and rob I hustled the streets to feed your needs...nothing was sacred...nothing was right...I sold myself to the devil and lost the will to eat, I even gave up my brother and mother Seguedilla, manzanilla, I want to see ya...its breaking my spine so I gotta draw the line! Gypsy bitch, spanish witch, your love may be rebel but my knife is made of metal! So Chica,Chica, mamasita, life and death has come to meet ya! Its time to play the final card.

Triplets: nothing was sacred...nothing was right

RAPPER raps:
- Hey! Carmen! I know youre the hottest thing around, - but dont give me that shit your love is a rebel bird Okay, youre a gypsy child and you were born to be wild, But Ill tame you and claim you and youll see, Escamillo and the other guys will be history! So come on Carmen, Ill take you out of the factory (cigarettes) into the light of the day. Forget the Toreadors and those long corridors, Lets dance to the Seguidilla (segedia) and drink some Manzanilla (manzania) And set our love on fire!

Midsection: RAPPER raps: in a faster tempo than Didi

So here we are...standing in front of the arena in the hot sun Not knowing which way is backwards or forwards. The crowds shout for the bull fight to begin, but all I want to do is hold you and run. Run,man! Run into the Sierra Morena. Come on Carmen! So you say you belong to Escamillo. Well, then theres no way back or out! Dont you think Ive sacrificed enough? To win your love I went through hell, Lost my job, honour and family. And all you can say is tough luck! Your love is rebel and you may be a devil, but I got to have you before the day is through!

Love is like a little wild thing CARMEN

(english):

H Carmen! dont you know that youre the hottest thing around. Youve got all the men going, going round and round and round! Escamillo, Zuniga and all the other guys, cant stop the flame that burns, burns within in your eyes! I know you think that love is wild! It cant be tamed and it cant be filed. You say you got to let it free, like the swell of the big blue sea! Well, babe I know it may be true, but I need you here and by my side. Stop fooling around with Toreadors, or Ill put you in in the corridor.

CARMEN RAP! (deutsch)

H Carmen! weit du nicht, dass du das bist, die Mnnerherzen treibt und auseinanderreibt? H Carmen! Weit du nicht , dass deine Lippen alle begehren und Deine Augen alle verzehren. H Carmen! Du sagst die Liebe ist wie ein wilder Vogel, hher als der hchste Kogel; die Liebe freier als das groe Meer und schrfer als der schrfste Speer. Aber Carmen, du weit, was uns verbindet, ist tiefer als alles andere was man findet, und wilde Augen und heie Herzen brennen schneller als Feuer und Kerzen Komm! Tanzen wir mal eine Seguidilla und trinken wir unsere Manzanilla, die Nacht ist jung und mu noch leben, la uns lieben lieber als reden.

CARMEN sings (english):

H Jos, you gotta check this out! I got gypsy blood in me. All I want to do is dance and shout! I got so much to feel and see. cause Love is like a little wild thing It can't be tamed, no it can't be kept! It turns you up and throws you down, til youre lying flat on the ground.! RAPPER The first time I saw you at the factory, I thought you looked so good. But then I realized youre nothing for me, I had to laugh infront of your face (I threw the flower into your face!) Ha! Ha! Ha! cause Love is like a little wild thing It can't be tamed, no it can't be kept! It turns you up andnthrows you down, til youre lying flat on the ground.! (I got gypsy blood running through my veins)

(no, it cant be claimed!)

Love is like a little wild thing... (to Habaera melody) It can't be claimed, it is all aflame! It turns you up and, then throws you down, Until youre lying on the ground! Ha! Ha! Ha! La! La! La! Love is like a wild,wild bird... (to Habaera melody) It can't be tamed, no it can't be kept! I'll love you, if you don't love me, But if you love me, you'd better watch out! How many times have I told you, Love will come and go... It knows no laws or boundaries! I'll love you, if you don't love me, But if you love me, you'd better watch out! Lamour est un oiseau rebelle, Que nul ne peut apprivoiser...
