Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend (From "Gentlemen Prefer Blondes")

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

But we all lose our charm in the end

But square cut or pear shaped

These rocks don't lose their shape

Diamonds are a girl's best friend

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 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 girl's best friend
