Diamonds Are a Girl Best Friends |
| 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 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 loose their shape |
| Diamonds are a girl’s best friend |
| Tiffany’s! |
| Cartier! |
| Black Starr! |
| 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 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 |
| 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 baguettes |
| 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 rhinestones! |
| But diamonds are a girl’s best friend |
