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
THERE MAY
BE 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 LIASONIC
ARE BETTER BETS
IF LITTLE PETS
GET BIG BAGGETTES
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 ARE
A GIRL'S BEST FRIEND
