The Soft Boys
Black Snake Diamond Rock
Black snake diamond role
Twist away across the floor
Trails away like mercury
Have you ever seen her?
Been right in between her?
She's a goddess
You're paid double
Just to be a candlestick
Black snake diamond rock
Cut in half and watch it shine
Doing it with confidence
Have you seen her squeeze her bulb
Singing like a windowpane
The mirror's glass a broken face?
Yes
She's not young and she's not old
She's a woman every time
Got a penthouse full of dwarfs
Lord, I wish that she was mine
Well, maybe she is
Rock around the fire escape
Boogy with a question mark
Dancin' with a rubber snake
Goin' down to Milton Keynes
Lookin' for my destiny
Feelin' young and dignified
In a velvet guillotine
Yes
Black snake diamond rock
Hungry fingers in a smock
Sucking on a croaker's top
Tulips blossom in a shop
Tulips from Amsterdam
Two lips from Amsterdam
Join together at the sides
Black snake diamond role
I'm gonna win my bride
Gonna be a burning ivy
Well, I hope it be alright
In our special spanner
You me, exquisite her
Tulips from Amsterdam
Tulips from Amsterdam
Two lips
Black snake diamond role
Yeah
