Diamonds Are A Girl`s Best Friend

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 Won't pay the rental on your humble flat, Or help you at the automat. Men grow cold as girls grow old, But we all lose our charms in the end, But square cut or pair shape these rocks don't lose their shape Diamonds are a girls best friend Tiffany's  Cartier Black Star, Frost, Gorhom 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 day when a hard-boiled employer thinks your 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 laisonic are better bets If little pets get big bagettes Time rolls on and youth is gone, And you can't straigten up when you bend. But stiff back or stiff knees You'll stand straight at Tiffany's Diamonds, Diamonds I don't mean rhinestones, Cuz' diamonds are a girls best, best friend
