The french are glad to die for love
they delite in fighting duels
but i prefer a man who lives and gives
expensive jewels

A kiss on the hand maybe quite continental
but diamonds are a girls best friend
a kiss may be grand.. but it won't pay the rental on your humble flat
or help you at the automat
men grow cold as girls grow old
and we all lose are charms in the end
but square cut or pear shape these rocks don't lose there shape
diamonds are a girls best friend

... Tiffany's!
... Cartiea!
Black star rus course
talk to me harry winston talk to me!
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 boild employer thinks your awful nice
but get that ice or else no dice
he's your guy when stocks are high but beware whent they start to decend
because thats when those louses go back to there spouses
diamonds are a girls best friend

I've heard of affairs that are strictly platonic
but diamonds are a girls best friend
and i think affairs that you must keep the sonic of better bets
if little bets get big bagettes
time rolls on and youth is gone and you can't straighten up when you bend
but stiff back or stiff knees you stand straight at.. Tiffany's...

diamonds... diamonds... I don't mean rhinstones.. but diamonds... are a girls best... best friend
