Diamonds And Pearls Lyrics

Sage Francis Diamonds And Pearls

surprising the world
with diamonds and pearls
but a song about a girl 'aint really about a girl

got a 2 way vanity mirror
I'm an amity villain
with a peeping tom complex

your just a soul collector
you keep puting 'em in a trash bag
push 'em in a shopping cart. go and act sad

when theres none left to collect
you just go on and make more
but wait, what you lose them to the state for?

the next time you see me
it'll be through plexi glass
there aint no bail outs in this jail house
aint no more petty cash

easy come easy go
a penny saved a penny earned
and i've learned life is cliche
one of these days you get what you deserve

surprising the world
with diamonds and pearls
but a song about a girl 'aint really about a girl

got a 2 way vanity mirror
firing a blind eye from a 200 puond guerilla

in the midst of mis directed anger
