Sparkling Diamonds Lyrics

The French are glad to die for love...
They excite in fighting duals
But I prefer a man who lives
And gives expensive jewels.
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
p**** cat.

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's...Cartier...

[Satine and the Diamond Dogs:]
'Cause we are living in a material world
And I am a material girl

[Satine:]
*kiss sound*, Ah
Come and get me, boys
Black Star, Ross Cole
Talk to me, Harry Zilder, tell me all about it!
There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer
[Zidler and the Diamond Dogs:]
But diamonds are a girl's best friend

[Satine:]
There may come a time when a hard-boiled employer thinks you're...

[Zidler:]
Awful nice!

[Satine:]
But get that ice or else no dice!

Diamond Dogs:
He's your guy when stocks are high
But beware when they start to descend
Oooo...Diamonds are a girl's best,
Diamonds are a girls best,
Diamonds are a girls best friend!
[Satine:]
Let's make love
Yes!
Oh, come on
Yes!

[Zilder:]
Oh!

[Satine:]
Tiger!
Roar! Roar!

[Nini Legs-In-The-Air:]
Ole!

[Zidler:] Everything's going so well!

[Satine:]
'Cause that's those louses go back to their spouses!
Diamonds... are a... girl's... best... friend!
