A CAPELLA
 
The French are glad to die for love
Always fighting in duels
But I prefer a man who lives
And gives expensive jewels
 
INTRODUCTION
 
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 feed your pussycat
 
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
 
Tiffany……. Cartier
 
‘Cause we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl
 
Come and get me boys
 
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 descend
 
Diamonds are a girl’s best
Diamonds are a girl’s best
Diamonds are a girl’s best
 
Let’s make love
Everything’s going so well
 
‘Cause that’s when those louses go back to their spouses
Diamonds, are a girl’s best friend
