He crossed the street he knew so well
Got lost there every day
Cursed his work, cried in shame
And was really glad it rained
Let's trade our tears for diamonds
Trade our tears for diamonds
Stepping in the day was long
Much longer than the time
No one around here gave a damn
Not even just a dime
So let's trade our tears for diamonds
Let's trade our tears for diamonds
On and on it goes and goes
On and on
Sorry, he never seems to cut it
He's poor as fuck and he still deserves
A statue so they say
He took good care of wife and kidsBut they left him anyway
Let's trade his tears for diamonds
Let's trade his tears for diamonds
On and on it goes and goes
On and on
Sorry, he never seems to cut it
To cut it
We change the things we used to love
Until they make us hate
We can dress up on the outside
But inside there's just no way
Let's trade our tears for diamonds
Let's trade our tears for diamonds
On and on it goes and goes
On and on
Sorry, he never seems to cut it
