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 girls
Best friend a kiss may
Be grand but it wont
Pay the rental on your
Humble flat or help you
At the automat
Men grow cold as girls
Grow old and we all lose
Our charms in the end
But square-cut or pear-
Shaped these rocks dont
Lose their shape diamonds
Are a girls best friend
Tiffanys…Cartier…
Black Star Frost Gorham
Talk to me Harry Winston
Tell me all about it
There may come a time
When a lass needs a
Lawyer but diamonds are a
Girls best friend there
May come a time when a
Hard-boiled employer
Thinks youre awful nice
But get that ice or else
No dice
Hes your guy when stocks
Are high but beware when
They start to descend its
Then that those louses go
Back to their spouses
Diamonds are a girls best
Friend
Ive heard of affairs that
Are strictly platonic but
Diamonds are a girls best
Friend and I think affairs
That you must keep
Liaisonic are better bets
If little pets get big
Baguettes
Time rolls on and youth is
Gone and you cant
Straighten up when you
Bend but stiff back or
Stiff knees you stand
Straight at Tiffanys
Diamonds…diamonds I
Dont mean rhinestones but
Diamonds are a girls best
Friends
