Tears for Diamonds - Racoon

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 kids

But 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
