Marilyn Monroe - 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 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

...tiffany's...cartier...

talk to me harry,winston,tell me all about it!

there may come a time when a hard boiled emploer

things 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 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 liaisonic

are better bets if little pets get big bag gifts.

time rolls on and youth ise gone

and you cant straighten up when you bend

but stiff back of stiff knees

you stand straight at tiffanys

diamonds...diamonds...

-i dont mean rock salt-

but diamonds,are a girls best friends!
