I knew a girl, her name was truth |
|
She was a horrible liar |
|
She couldn't spend one day alone |
|
But she couldn't be satisfied |
|
When you have everything |
|
You have everything to lose |
|
She made herself a bed of nails |
|
And she's plannin' on puttin' it to use |
|
'Cos she had diamonds on the inside |
|
She had diamonds on the inside |
|
She had diamonds on the inside |
|
Diamonds |
|
A candle throws its light into the darkness |
|
In a nasty world, so shines the good deed |
|
Make sure the fortune, that you seek |
|
Is the fortune that you need |
|
So tell me why, the first to ask |
|
Is the last to give every time |
|
What you say and do not mean |
|
Follow too close behind |
|
'Cos she had diamonds on the inside |
|
She had diamonds on the inside |
|
She wore diamonds on the inside |
|
Diamonds, diamonds |
|
Like a soldier long standing under fire |
|
Any change comes as a relief |
|
Let the giver's name remain unspoken |
|
For she is just a generous thief |
|
But she had diamonds on the inside |
|
'Cos she had diamonds on the inside |
|
She wore diamonds on the inside |
|
She wore diamonds |
|
Oh diamonds |
|
She had diamonds |
|
She wore diamonds |
|
Diamonds |
