    Movie: Gentlemen Prefer Blondes (1953)
    Lyrics by: Jule Styne
    Music by: Leo Robin

    Lyrics:
    The French are glad to die for love.
    They delight in fighting duels.
    But I prefer a man who lives
    And gives expensive jewels.

    A kiss on the hand
    May be quite continental,
    But diamonds are a girl’s best friend.

    A kiss may be 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-shaped,
    These rocks don’t loose their shape.
    Diamonds are a girl’s best friend.

    Tiffany’s!
    Cartier!
    Black Starr!
    Frost Gorham!
    Talk to me Harry Winston.
    Tell me all about it!

    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.

    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 baguettes.

    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 friend.
