Lyrics

[ZIDLER, spoken] Ladies and Gentlemen Bohemians and Artists Coquettes and Boulevardiers May I present to you our "Sparkling Diamond" The unique, the indomitable, the one and only Satine [SATINE, sung] Diamonds are forever They are all I need to please me They can stimulate and tease me They won't leave in the night I've no fear that they might desert me Diamonds are forever Hold one up and then caress it Touch it, stroke it and undress it I can see every part Nothing hides in their heart to hurt me Diamonds are forever and ever and ever 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 feed your pussycat 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 lose their shape Diamonds are a girl's best friend [ALL WOMEN] 'Cause we are living in a material world And I am a material girl [GROUP ONE] All the single ladies [GROUP TWO] All the single ladies [GROUP ONE] All the single ladies [GROUP TWO] All the single ladies [GROUP ONE] All the single ladies [GROUP TWO] All the single ladies [GROUP ONE] All the single ladies [ALL WOMEN] Now put your hands up [SATINE] Gloss on my lips Man on my hips Tighter than my Dereon Jeans Acting up Drink in my cup I can't care less what you think I need no permission Did I mention? Don't pay him any attention 'Cause you've had your turn And now you're gonna learn What it really feels like to miss me [SATINE AND WOMEN] 'Cause if you liked it Then you should have put a ring on it If you liked it Then you should've put a ring on it Don't be mad once you see that he want it If you like it then you should've put a ring on it Whoa uh oh uh uh oh oh uh oh uh uh oh Whoa uh oh uh uh oh oh uh [SATINE] Diamonds are a girl's best friend [MEN] She's a brick house She's mighty-mighty [SATINE, WOMEN] Tiffany (No, you're never gonna get it) Cartier (Never, never gonna get it) Black Star (No, you're never gonna get it) Ross Cole (Never, never gonna get it) [SATINE] Talk to me Harry Zidler Tell me all about it [ZIDLER, spoken] The Moulin Rouge is a state of mind [SATINE] Shine bright like a diamond [SATINE] Shine bright like a diamond [ZIDLER, spoken] The "Sparkling Diamond", Satine [SATINE] Shine bright like a diamond [WOMEN, continuously] Whoa uh oh uh uh oh oh uh oh uh uh oh Whoa uh oh uh uh oh oh uh oh uh uh oh [MEN] All the single ladies If you liked it then you should've put a ring on it All the single ladies [SATINE] Diamonds are forever [MEN] If you liked it then you should've put a ring on it All the single ladies [SATINE] Diamonds are forever and ever [SATINE AND WOMEN] He's your guy when stocks are high But beware when they start to descend [SATINE] It's then that those louses Go back to their spouses Diamonds Are a girl's Best Friend
