Diamonds Are A Girls Best Friend

The French were bred 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 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 don't lose their shape
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
...Tiffany's ... Cartier...
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 girl's best friend.
There may come a time when a hard-
boiled employerthinks 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,
It's then that those louses go back to
their spouses
Diamonds are a girl's best friend
.I've heard of affairs that are strictly
platonic
but diamonds are a girl's best friend
,and I think affairs that you must keep
liaisonic
are better bets if little pets get big bag
gifts.
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 rock salt -
but Diamonds, Are A Girl's Best
Friends
