Sparkling Diamonds
The French are glad to die for love,
They delight in fighting duels,
But I prefer a man who lives, and gives expensive jewels!
A kiss on the hand may be quite continental
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
A kiss may be grand but it won't pay the rental
On your humble flat or help you feed your pussycat
Men grow cold as, girls grow old,
But square-cut or pear-shaped
These rocks don't lose their shape
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
Tiffany... Cartier
'Cause we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
Come and get me boys
Aaauw!...
Black Star! Rosh Cold!
Talk to me, harry zidler! Tell me all about it!
There may come a time when a, lass needs a lawyer
But diamonds are a girl's best friend
There may come a time when a, hard-boiled employer
Thinks you're awful nice, but get that ice or else no dice
He's your guy when stocks are high
But beware when they start to descend
Diamonds are a girl's best
Diamonds are a girl's best
Diamonds are a girl's best
Let's make love
Everything's going so well...
'Cause that's when those lasses go back to their spouses
Diamonds, are a girl's best... Friend.
