SONG #5: QUEEN OF DIAMONDS
PERFORMED BY: THE QUEEN

VERSE 1:
The hardest substance in the world
Is forged through heat and stress
A hidden lump of common coal
In the earth’s red-hot caress

It takes so much to look like this
The people don’t know
They think it must be an angel’s kiss
That gives my face this glow

The thousands I have spent on creams
And lotions that restore
The lengths I go to, the extremes
For exterior décor

CHORUS:
‘Cos I don’t need your garlands
Or crowds when I depart
I’d rather be the Queen of Diamonds
Than the Queen of People’s Hearts

‘Cos I don’t need your garlands
Or crowds when I depart
I’d rather be the Queen of Diamonds
Than the Queen of People’s Hearts

VERSE 2:
I start my day with Botox jabs
With liposuction at noon
And then it’s off to the doctor’s labs
To make plums out of prunes

I sleep in a chamber of oxygen
And bathe with mineral water
I’ll gladly trade a plastic surgeon
For my own stepdaughter

My teeth are porcelain veneer
And Lasik for my eye
If you delay each looming year
Then death you can defy

CHORUS:
‘Cos I don’t need your garlands
Or crowds when I depart
I’d rather be the Queen of Diamonds
Than the Queen of People’s Hearts.

‘Cos I don’t need your garlands
Or crowds when I depart
I’d rather be the Queen of Diamonds
Than the Queen of People’s Hearts.
