"Traffic's wild tonight" |
|
Diamond smiles her cocktail smile. |
|
Tonight she's in heavy disquise. |
|
She looks at her wrist to clock the passing time. "Weather's mild tonight" |
|
She wonders will they notice her eyes, |
|
She wonders will her glamour survive, |
|
And can they see she's going down a third time. |
|
Everybody tries, |
|
It's Dale |
|
Carnegie gone wild, |
|
But Barbara |
|
Cartland's child long ago perfected the motionless glide. |
|
In the low voltage noise, |
|
Diamond seems so sure and so poised |
|
She shimmers for the bright young boys, |
|
And says "Love is for others, but me it destroys" |
|
The girl in the cake |
|
Jumped out too soon by mistake, |
|
Somebody said the whole things half baked |
|
And Diamond lifts her glass and says "cheers" |
|
She stands to the side |
|
There's no more to this than meets the eye, |
|
Everybody drinks |
|
Martini dry, |
|
And talks about clothes and the latest styles. |
|
Chorus: They said she did it |
|
With grace. |
|
They said she did it |
|
With style. |
|
They said she did it all |
|
Before she died |
|
Oh No I remember |
|
Diamond's smile |
|
Nobody saw her go, |
|
They said they should have noticed 'cos her dress was cut so low. |
|
Well it only goes to show |
|
Ha, ha, how many real men any of us know. |
|
She went up the stairs, |
|
Stood up on the vanity chair, |
|
Tied her lamee belt around the chandelier, |
|
And went out kicking at the perfumed air. |
|
Repeat Chorus |
