Diamond As Big As The Ritz Lyrics |
||
|
Under the earth and stone A cubic mile of perfection Treasure no one has known One man came upon this motherlode Built himself a thousand room chateau He`s the emperor of diamonds Master of the prize He`s got the hold on happiness And all that money can buy Everyday he lives in fascination This is not an everyday temptation, no It`s the diamond as big as the Ritz What you gonna do with this Tell me who`s goin` to save you When you`re a slave to the Diamond as big as the Ritz A blessing can become a curse If you keep it to yourself our own exaggeration Is not so good for your health It`s the prophecy of the unattainable dream If you take one look behind the shine It doesn`t always gleam Everyday he lives in fascination This is not an everyday temptation, no It`s the diamond as big as the Ritz What you gonna do with this Tell me, who`s goin` to save you When you`re a slave to a Diamond as big as the Ritz (Diamond. Diamond. Diamond. Diamond. Diamond) Coal under pressure (Diamond) Sparkle of treasure (Diamond) Crystaline measure (Diamond) On a mental pleasure (Diamond) In the corner of your eye (Diamond) Make a grown man cry (Diamond) All the seeds you`ve sown (Diamond) Greed can crumble your castle walls Greed can purchase you thrills Power is a dangerous drug It can maim, it can kill It`s the prophecy of the unattainable dream If you take one look behind the shine It doesn`t always gleam It was a diamond as big as the Ritz What you gonna do with this Tell me, who`s goin` to save you When you`re a slave to a Diamond as big as the Ritz It was a diamond as big as the Ritz What you gonna do with this Tell me, who`s goin` to save you When you`re a slave to a Diamond as big as the Ritz |
