Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend (Remastered)

Julie London




Diamonds Are a Girl's Best Friend (Remastered)
Diamanten sind der beste Freund eines Mädchens (Remastered)
The French are glad to die for love
Die Franzosen sterben gern für die Liebe
They delight in fighting duels
Sie lieben es, Duelle auszufechten
But I prefer a man who lives
Aber ich bevorzuge einen Mann, der lebt
And gives expensive jewels
Und teure Juwelen schenkt
A kiss on the hand may be quite continental
Ein Handkuss mag ja sehr kontinental sein
But diamonds are a girl's best friend.
Aber Diamanten sind der beste Freund eines Mädchens.
A kiss may be grand but it won't pay the rental
Ein Kuss mag großartig sein, aber er bezahlt nicht die Miete
On your humble flat
Für deine bescheidene Wohnung
Or help you at the automat.
Oder hilft dir am Automaten.
Men grow cold as girls grow old
Männer werden kalt, wenn Mädchen alt werden
And we all lose our charms in the end.
Und wir alle verlieren am Ende unseren Charme.
But square-cut or pear-shaped
Aber quadratisch geschliffen oder birnenförmig
Those rocks don't lose their shape.
Diese Steine verlieren nicht ihre Form.
Diamonds are a girl's best friend.
Diamanten sind der beste Freund eines Mädchens.
There may come a time when a lass needs a lawyer
Es mag eine Zeit kommen, da braucht ein Mädel einen Anwalt
But diamonds are a girl's best friend.
Aber Diamanten sind der beste Freund eines Mädchens.
There may come a time when a hard-boiled employer
Es mag eine Zeit kommen, da ein harter Arbeitgeber
Thinks you're awful nice
Dich furchtbar nett findet
But 'get that ice' or else 'no dice'.
Aber 'hol das Eis' oder sonst 'nichts da'.
He's your guy when stocks are high
Er ist dein Mann, wenn die Aktien hoch stehen
But beware when they start to descend.
Aber pass auf, wenn sie zu fallen beginnen.
It's then that those louses
Dann ist es, dass diese Läuse
Go back to their spouses.
Zu ihren Ehefrauen zurückkehren.
Diamonds are a girl's best friend.
Diamanten sind der beste Freund eines Mädchens.
