What's the big idea about diamonds?

People singing songs about shallow diamonds

Diamonds

Wars are being fought over diamonds

Lives are sold and bought for those shallow diamonds

Compressed carbon is what they are

No more use than a candy bar

Won’t make you into a superstar

Can you call it love without diamonds?

I don't give a stuff about shallow diamonds

Diamonds

"Just a stone, but tell 'em it’s priceless!"

Advertising hyping those shallow diamonds

Got the magic to make you drool

Make a businessman shaggable

How'd the whole of the world get fooled?

Diamonds

You can blow the lot on a diamond

You can lose the plot over shallow diamonds

Compressed carbon is what they are

No more use than a candy bar

Won't make you into a superstar

They say that diamonds are a girl's best friend

They keep on shining 'til the bitter end

Well, come on - yeah baby, come on

They ain't forever, don't go kidding me

I know you ladies like your jewelry

But it's only make believe

What’s the big idea about diamonds?

Someone ask De Beers about shallow diamonds

Diamonds

Wars are being fought over diamonds

Lives are sold and bought for shallow diamonds

Compressed carbon is what they are

No more use than a candy bar

Won’t make you into a superstar
