most precious stone is the world
I want to be a diamond
diamond
M for millions of years
O as in too old for tears
N as in never cry and never die
as in diamonds, as in diamonds

as in diamonds never die
I means me and not you
as I like being alone
M for a mine of my own
O you would like to own me
N for never never never
for diamonds are forever

the hardest substance in the world
I wanna cut through glass
say, nothing gonna brake me
mo hands could ever make me
there may be millions of stones
but I relay on brilliant Zion
ain’t nobody gonna make jewelery out of me
ain’t nobody gonna make jewelery out of me

diamonds, oh… I wanna be a diamond, oh…
diamonds, oh… I’m gonna be a diamond, oh…

diamonds, oh… I wanna be a diamond, oh…
diamonds, oh… I’m gonna be a diamond, oh…
