Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Feeling like I just got paid
I earned one hundred dollars worth
Of gas vouchers today
Working as a government slave
[Verse 2]
When money gets a little bit tight
We hold onto what we know
We never lose sight of the little things
It's the little things that make it all worthwhile
[Verse 3]
They say, they do it for the love not the money
But they're living in the sunlight
Rich now, we're working, got a daddy, turned a blind eye
Oh, just to be so young and in love, right?
[Verse 4]
And here I stay in the gutter, churning butter
Into diamonds, diamonds, diamonds
Churning butter into diamonds, into diamonds
Diamonds
[Verse 5]
Sunny days gone and turned to gray
How long will it last
It seems forever, bring me down, dirty weather
Got a stack of bills remained unpaid
[Verse 6]
Call on the credit team to fix it
This week I have to miss it
Nothing but lack of work to blame
The shame
Nothing but lack of work to blame
The shame
[Verse 7]
They say, they do it for the love not the money
But they're living in the sunlight
Rich now, we're working, got a daddy, turned a blind eye
Oh, just to be so young and in love, right?
[Verse 8]
And here I stay in the gutter, churning butter
Into diamonds, diamonds, diamonds
Churning butter into diamonds, into diamonds
Diamonds
[Verse 9]
Tell me, what would you do
If you could make diamonds?
(If you could make, what, what would you do with it?)
Hide the butter in the gutter
Where nobody could find them
(Would you hide it, would, would you hide it?)
[Verse 10]
Or would you give me one
And go and make another?
(Go and make another, go and make another)
Making plans for your friends and fans and your lover
(Lover, lover, lover)
What would you do with?
What would you do with?
[Verse 11]
They say, they do it for the love not the money
But they're living in the sunlight
Rich now, we're working, got a daddy, turned a blind eye
Oh, just to be so young and in love, right?
[Verse 12]
And here I stay in the gutter, churning butter
Into diamonds, diamonds, diamonds
Churning butter into diamonds, into diamonds
Diamonds
[Verse 13]
Churning butter into diamonds, into diamonds
Diamonds
Churning butter into diamonds, into diamonds
Diamonds
