I knew a girl
|
Her name was truth
|
She was a horrible liar.
|
|
She couldnt spend one day alone
|
But she couldnt be satisfied.
|
|
When you have everything,
|
You have everything to lose.
|
She made herself
|
A bed of nails
|
And shes 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 you need.
|
|
So tell me why,the first to ask,is the last to give,everytime
|
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
|
|
Like a soldier standing long 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
|
