"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 do 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 laugh's "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 lame belt around the chandelier,
And went out kicking at the perfumed air.
Repeat Chorus
I Boomtown Rats sono una band rock irlandese formatasi a Dublino nel 1975. Il gruppo è guidato dal frontman e compositore Bob Geldof, noto anche per la sua attività umanitaria. La musica dei Boomtown Rats si caratterizza per un sound punk-rock energico e melodico, con testi spesso satirici e politici. Tra i loro successi più famosi figurano "I Don't Like Mondays", "Rat Trap" e "The Boomtown Rats". Nel 1984, Geldof ha fondato Band Aid, un supergruppo di artisti britannici e irlandesi che ha registrato il brano "Do They Know It's Christmas?" per raccogliere fondi in aiuto della carestia in Etiopia. I Boomtown Rats hanno venduto milioni di dischi in tutto il mondo e sono considerati uno dei gruppi rock più influenti degli anni '70 e '80.
