Текст песни Jake Shears - Diamonds Don’t Burn

[Verse 1]
Left the body by the seaside
Took the 1 Express to the West Side
Strapped myself in the backseat death ride
Farm to table Nitroys Oxide
Giving all the head you want
Making all the bread to live
Making all the braed you want
Giving all the head you give

[Verse 2]
Caught up with the jewel appraiser
Me shock collar you be [?]
Everybody loves my inflatable blazer
Shaved his legs with two light sabers
Giving all the head you want
Making all the bread to live
Making all the braed you want
Giving all the head you give

[Pre-Chorus]
Wading through flooded markets
I bathed in flowers and shame
Union men tore down the station
Holding their torches to flame

[Chorus]
Diamonds don't burn
The data don't line up
I told you to shine up
We both know the damage was earned
Diamonds don't burn

[Verse 3]
We sent the patsy for the playback
You take the lead I think I'll stay back
Find a couple conversions to hi-jack
How'd you like to trade your thumbs for thumb-tacks
Giving all the head you want
Making all the bread to live, yeah
Making all the braed you want
Giving all the head you give

[Pre-Chorus]
Swimming in through submerged apartments
I breathed the pathos and lead
Walk-ons and principles blending
She looks so good infra-red

[Chorus]
Diamonds don't burn
The data don't line up
I told you to shine up
We both know the damage was earned
Diamonds don't burn
I can hide the design
Before the day returns
Diamonds don't burn

[Bridge]
And that music is so powerful
That it's quite beyond my control
When I'm in the grips of it
I don't feel pleasure and I don't feel pain
Do you understand what I'm talking about?
Have you ever felt like that?
When you couldn't feel anything
And you didn't want to either
It's like that

[Outro]
I can hide the design
Before the day returns
Diamonds don't burn
