The Gold
by Manchester Orchestra

"Couldn't really love you any more
You've become my ceiling
I don't think I love you anymore
That gold mine changed you
You don't have to hold me anymore
Our cave's collapsing
..."

 

[Lexililac]

The Doors, Love Street

"She has robes and she has monkeys
Lazy diamond studded flunkies
She has wisdom and knows what to do
She has me, and she has you"


Rolling Stones, Play with Fire

"Well you've got your diamonds
And you've got your pretty clothes
And the chauffeur drives your car
You let everybody know
But don't play with me
'Cause you're playing with fire
Your mother she's an heiress
Owns a block in Saint John's Wood
And your father'd be there with her
If he only could
But don't play with me
'Cause you're playing with fire
Your old man took her diamond's
And tiaras by the score
Now she gets her kicks in Stepney
Not in Knightsbridge anymore
So don't you play with me
'Cause you're playing with fire
Now you've got some diamonds
And you will have some others
But you'd better watch your step girl
Or start living with your mother
So don't you play with me
'Cause you're playing with fire
So don't you play with me
'Cause you're playing with fire"


Hole, Violet

"And the sky was made of amethyst
And all the stars were just like little fish
You should learn when to go
You should learn how to say no"


Dope Lemon, Stonecutters

"Stonecutters, illuminati eyes
Make livin' on
Very good times
Ahh"


Lorde, Yellow Flicker Beat

"I'm a princess cut from marble, smoother than a storm
And the scars that mark my body, they're silver and gold
My blood is a flood of rubies, precious stones
It keeps my veins hot, the fires find a home in me
I move through town, I'm quiet like a fire
And my necklace is of rope, I tie it and untie it"

Cheap Thrills ft. Sean Paul
by Sia

"
Baby, I don't need dollar bills to have fun tonight (I love cheap thrills!)
Baby, I don't need dollar bills to have fun tonight (I love cheap thrills!)
I don't need no money
You're worth more dan diamonds, more dan gold
As long as I can feel the beat
Mek di beat jus tek control
I don't need no money
You're worth more dan diamonds, more dan gold
As long as I keep dancing
Free up yourself, get outa control

Gold Rush
by Death Cab for Cutie

Digging for gold in my neighborhood
(Gold rush) Where all the old buildings stood
(Gold rush) And they keep digging it down and down
(Gold rush) So that the cars can live underground
(Gold rush) The swinging of a wrecking ball
(Gold rush) Through these lath and plaster walls
(Gold rush) Is letting all the shadows free
(Gold rush) The ones I wish still followed me
Followed me, followed me
(Please don't change)
(Stay) Followed me, followed me
(Stay the same)
I remember a winter's night
(Gold rush) We kissed beneath the street lamp light
(Gold rush) Outside a bar near the record store
(Gold rush) That have been condos for a year and more
(Gold rush) Now that our haunts have taken flight
(Gold rush) And been replaced with construction sites
(Gold rush) Oh, how I feel like stranger here
(Gold rush) Searching for something that's disappeared
Digging for gold in my neighborhood
(Gold rush) For what they say is the greater good
(Gold rush) But all I see is a long goodbye
(Gold rush) A requiem for a skyline
(Gold rush) It seems I never stopped losing you
(Gold rush) Because every dive becomes something new
(Gold rush) And all our ghosts get swept away
(Gold rush) It didn't used to be this way
Be this way, be this way
(Please don't change)
(Stay) Be this way, be this way
(Stay the same)
(Cranes) Be this way, be this way
(Devour the light)
(Strange) Be this way, be this way
(Appetite)
I've ascribed these monuments
A false sense of permanence
I've placed faith in geography
To hold you in my memory
(Gold rush) I'm sifting through these wreckage piles
(Gold rush) Through the rubble of bricks and wires
(Gold rush) Looking for something I'll never find
(Gold rush) Looking for something I'll never find
Digging for gold in my neighborhood
(Gold rush) Where all the old buildings stood
(Gold rush) And they keep digging it down and down
(Gold rush) So that the cars can live underground
(Gold rush) It seems I never stopped losing you
(Gold rush) Because every dive becomes something new
(Gold rush) And all our ghosts get swept away
(Gold rush) It didn't used to be this way
Change
(Gold rush) It didn't used to be this way
(Gold rush) It didn't used to be this way (please don't change)
(Gold rush) It didn't used to be this way
(Gold rush) It didn't used to be this way (stay, stay the same)
(Gold rush) It didn't used to be this way
(Gold rush) It didn't used to be this way (stay the same)
(Gold rush) It didn't used to be this way
(Gold rush) It didn't used to be this way (change)
(Gold rush)
(Gold rush)
Please don't change
(Gold rush)
(Gold rush)
Stay
(Gold rush)
(Gold rush)
Stay the same

Diamond Life
by DJ Cassidy and Snoop Dogg

"A diamond shine, that's how you define"

"Diamond life
Yeah, I'm livin' my diamond life
And every day ain't the brightest light
Sometimes it's a cloudy night
But I'm still livin' my diamond life
When I shine, I'm the brightest light
I control how I feel inside
I'm livin' my diamond life, diamond life"

Diamond Studded Shoes
by Yola

"You and I are trying
But we don't get to decide
When the man comes for our paychecks
Don't you tell me it'll be alright
We aren't the rich ones
Some of us will barely get by
They buy diamond studded shoes with our taxes
Anything to keep us divided"

Little Things
by Michael Franti

“You know that it don't cost a dime, just to spend a little extra time
To throw a little smile at somebody passing by you
And you know love don't cost a thing, but it's worth more than any diamond ring
Cause in this great big world it's the little things”
