Song: Unconventional Means

Version 1

Diamonds…

There are a lot of ways, ways to find diamonds.
I, I like to find mine, not in mines, but in chests.
Why dig when you can borrow?
Might bring them back, I might.

Why? Why dig when you can borrow?
Borrow diamonds.

Self-service, helping myself, I am.
To the things. things simply lying around.
A liberator, liberating items trapped.
Items long forgotten, unneeded, unwanted.

Why? Why dig when you can borrow?
Borrow diamonds.

No one was near to lay claim.
You would have done the same.
With kindness, relieving them.
Of this shiny, shiny, burden.

Why? Why dig when you can borrow?
Borrow diamonds.

Maybe this one was yours, maybe it wasn’t.
It seems that yours may have walked off.
When I find myself in a pinch, I’ve been known to pinch.
A little item or two. Nothing too much.

Why? Why dig when you can borrow?
Borrow diamonds.

This? Oh, this thing? This old thing.
This was acquired by unconventional means.
Taking it out for a spin, a test, a trial.
Making sure it was good enough for you.

Why? Why dig when you can borrow?
Borrow diamonds.

It was a gift. I believe it was.
Yes, a gift, from a friend, I’m sure.
Shuffling the deck, reallocating resources.
A digital Robin Hood, I am, I might be.

Why? Why dig when you can borrow?
Borrow diamonds.

Diamonds…
