lyrics

These diamond lives in which take from shore to shore,
Yet for all our lies, we are always telling more.
Reflected views, refracted words, these diamond lives.

Tax free to dig the ground, to make a pound and then cover up,
Still well renowned.
Rather you than me 'cause my life's not free.
And I'd rather avoid catastrophe,
For funding diamond lives.
Force funded diamond lives.

These diamond lives, these diamond times,
Diamond ways, diamond Days.
These diamond times, such diamond days, our diamond lives.

These diamond views, to take and use,
Diamond crimes, production lines.
These diamond times, such diamond days, our diamond lives.

These diamond lives, these diamond days,
These diamond dreams, these diamond crimes,
These diamond ways, these diamond times,
These diamond views, these diamond lies,
These diamond lives, these diamond thoughts,
These diamond words, this diamond light,
This diamond world, this diamond earth,
For all its worth, these diamond ways,
These diamond times, these diamond days.
Our diamond lives.

These diamond lives continue all the same,
Through endless years situation never changed.
And they play Chinese whispers with the blame,
These diamond days, their diamond game.
