[00:24.950]The French are glad to die for love
[00:29.540]They delight in fighting duels
[00:35.280]But I prefer a man who lives
[00:38.770]And gives
[00:41.160]Expensive jewels
[00:46.100]A kiss on the hand may be quite Continental
[00:50.980]But diamonds are a girl's best friend
[00:56.310]A kiss may be grand
[00:59.440]But it won't pay the rental
[01:01.220]On your humble flat
[01:03.670]Or help you at the automat
[01:06.950]Men grow cold
[01:09.040]As girls grow old
[01:11.620]And we all lose our charms in the end
[01:16.860]But square-cut or pear-shaped
[01:19.720]These rocks don't lose their shape
[01:22.460]Diamonds are a girl's best friend
[01:28.980]Tiffany's. . . Cartier. . .
[01:37.800]Black frost. . .
[01:39.620]Pearl 'bossed. . .
[01:38.310]Talk to me, Harry Winston, tell me all about it!
[01:45.620]There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer
[01:50.780]But diamonds are a girl's best friend
[01:55.820]There may come a time when a hard-boiled employer
[02:00.930]Thinks you're awful nice
[02:03.650]But get that ice
[02:05.110]Or else no dice
[02:07.300]He's your guy when stocks are high
[02:11.260]But beware when they start to descend
[02:17.110]Cos that's when those louses
[02:19.230]Go back to their spouses
[02:22.300]Diamonds are a girl's best friend
[02:35.010]I've heard of affairs which are strictly Platonic
[02:39.990]But diamonds are a girl's best friend
