Never been all that wrapped up in shiny swimming pools

Those material kinda lies they tell

Life looks oh so well from the outside in

Honeymoons don't end

No, what I thought I wanted let me down

And I don't want it now.

Keep the house, keep the truck

Go downtown, get too drunk

Kiss a one-night stand with a butterfly on her back

Take the bed where you used to lie

Keep the friends I never liked

And the happy ever after welcome mat

But you ain't gonna get this diamond back

No, never ever gettin' this diamond back

You can keep the dog and the cadillac

But you ain't gonna get this diamond back.

Well I guess I'll just burn that dress

All those fairy tales can go straight to hell

Don't need you no more, with this

24 carats that I'm wearin', no, I don't care if you.

Keep the house, keep the truck

Go downtown, get too drunk

Kiss a one-night stand with a butterfly on her back

Take the bed where you used to lie

Keep the friends I never liked

And the happy ever after welcome mat

But you ain't gonna get this diamond back

No, never ever gettin' this diamond back

You can keep the dog and the cadillac

But you ain't gonna get this diamond back.

Oh, what I thought I wanted let me down

But who's laughing now.

Keep the house, keep the truck

Go downtown, get too drunk

Kiss a one-night stand with a butterfly on her back

Take the bed where you used to lie

Keep the friends I never liked

And the happy ever after welcome mat

You ain't gonna get this diamond back

No, never ever gettin' this diamond back

It's in a pawn shop next to the laundromat

You ain't gonna get this diamond back.
