Carolea Lyrics - Everclear

She came to the coast from the show me state 

With her daddy's blue eyes and her mama's blind hate 

Guess she didn't know much but she knew the rules 

What she needed to learn, she would find in l.a. 

Not back in that school 

Didn't wanna read about it 

Guess she wanted to see 

Carolea, she's carolea 

Yeah, yeah, never quite sure what she wanted to be 

Just a little girl alone in a big bad place 

With a devious mind and a beautiful face 

Ever since she was a baby she learned how to play 

Wanted money in her hands from the easiest way 

All her friends said, stop girl, you can't pay the price 

But the hard way out don't appeal to the beast inside 

She don't wanna hear about the better life 

Guess she's ready to be 

Hey, carolea 

She never tells the truth to the folks back east 

Truth about the drugs and the men she gets paid to please 

Well they don't know 

Yeah, they don't see 

Yeah, that finally now after all these years 

She's let the beast inside roam free 

Carolea
