Diamonds Are A Girl's Best Friend - As Heard in the film Burlesque (Swing Cats Mix) - Marylin Monroe

A kiss on the hand may

Be quite continental

But diamonds are a girl's best friend

A kiss maybe 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 shape 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 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

Tiffany's

Cartier

Black Star

Frost Gorham

Talk to me Harry Winston

Tell me all about it

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 liaisonic

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 Diamonds

I don't mean rhinestones

But diamonds are a girl's best beat friend
