Platinum
Shadows only shade,
Not produce a single light...
On a path one makes.
Seeking to hide behind those shadows,
May welcome more grunts to stunt...
With additional heartaches that come to break.
Get up and shine,
Like you're platinum.
Glow and radiate.
Get up and glisten.
Like a priceless diamond.
Gleam in the mix and celebrate.
Shadows only shade,
Not produce a single light...
On a path one makes.
Keep it there,
As if you are platinum.
Share whenever you choose.
Sparkle bright like a diamond,
And strut like you've got new shoes!
Shadows only shade,
Not produce a single light...
On a path one makes.
Seeking to hide behind those shadows,
May welcome more grunts to stunt...
With additional heartaches that come to break.
Get up and shine,
Like you are platinum.
Glow and radiate.
Get up and glisten.
Like a priceless diamond.
Gleam in the mix and celebrate.
Keep it there,
And strut around like you're platinum.
Keep it there,
Radiate and celebrate.
Keep it there...
To blind the eyes like a diamond,
Fresh and priceless...
And never out of date!
Or rated as fake!
Keep it there,
Like you're platinum.
Keep it there,
To radiate!
Keep it there...
To blind the eyes like a diamond,
Fresh and priceless...
And never out of date!
Don't forget about titanium,
Your next move to make.
And strut around like you're platinum.
Keep it there,
Radiate and celebrate.
Keep it there...
To blind the eyes like a diamond,
Fresh and priceless...
And never out of date!

Shine On You Crazy Diamond
Remember when you were young, you shone like the sun.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Now there's a look in your eyes, like black holes in the sky.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
You were caught on the cross fire of childhood and stardom,
Blown on the steel breeze.
Come on you target for faraway laughter, come on you stranger,
You legend, you martyr, and shine!
You reached for the secret too soon, you cried for the moon.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Treatened by shadows at night, and exposed in the light.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Well you wore out your welcome with random precision,
Rode on the steel breeze.
Come on you raver, you seer of visions, come on you painter,
You piper, you prisoner, and shine!
Nobody knows where you are, how near or how far.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
Pile on many more layers and i'll be joining you there.
Shine on you crazy diamond.
And we'll bask in the shadow of yesterday's triumph,
And sail on the steel breeze.
Come on you boy child, you winner and loser,
Come on you miner for truth and delusion, and shine!

Diamond In The Dark
diamonds in the dark,
lacks all the worth that they inhert have,
a matchstick in ones hand,
priceless commodity to i trapped out there in the cold,
diamonds in the dark,
is what we have become if we have no one in our heart,
we are all full if love,
but what is it if we cant share it out,
a matchstick is at hand,
a slight light from it makes the diamond come to life,
sometimes what we need is a spark,
a small neglected action that makes everything worth,
the diamond when at hand,
in the dark you cant see the beauty that it has,
with a flash of a match,
we see its spendor and its beauty is spread out,
we need the matchstick when we are out,
brings warmth to a lifeless body to cope,
priceless in our hand,
a life giver a worth giver we always tend to ignore,
diamonds in the dark,
a loud cry for help in a room of dumbs,
diamonds in the dark,
fine painting to a class of blind,
what we want in life,
the small things that gives life its worth

The Hum Drum Of Platinum
The hum drum of platinum
friends from a far friends from yesterday and tommorrow
all join hands to share their truth, joy and sorrow
meeting each other in the same school
from places far and wide they came to join this pool
The hum drum of platinum
the wine follows like the river here
friends and foes joined hands with out fear
krishna, ganga, cauvery, jamuna all join this muighty sea
all joining hands together like a big family
The Hum Drum of Platinum
with golf and cricket to match any wicket'
with plays and dinners all glore
we all celebrated with russian whores
a sea of ex welhamites decending on Doon
oh my friends it was a wonderful boon
The Hum Drum Of Platinum
what joy what laugheter prevailed
juniors and seniors, sedi's and nerds
loosers and winners all alike
drank from the same cup of life
The Hum Drum of Platinum
Teachers, parents, governers and guests
all in their ties dressed in their best
The palys the meeting and the fete
it was at times like this i wish i had a date
food, liqour and desserts atl displayed
As we made merrey and watched the play
The Hum Drum Of Platinum
four days on reunioun fun and frolick
we lived old times once again
wearing t- shirts and badges alike
as Cochar gave a speech with a busted mike
The Hum Drum Of Platinum
it was time to say farewell in the end
with haevy hearts all parted ways
carrying in their minds memories of yonder days
to return agaiin to celebrate the Centenary

Priceless
The fact that you
You think you can
Speak to me
The way you do
It pains me to believe that you
Have never stepped out of the skin you've lived with
And then, and if
This day occurs
Your tongue, the taste
Will immitate a battery
The anti-equilibrium
Your stomach becomes the floor
The look on your face was priceless!
The look on your face was priceless!
Yes, the look on your face was priceless!
That look, it was...
A light goes on
Up stairs, the attic is a place of solitaire
Isn't big enough for both of us
So who will swim in eel infested oceans
Kiss and say goodbye
because the tide is coming up and in
Yeah, water, water, water everywhere!
And every chance to sink!
The look on your face was priceless!
The look on your face was priceless!
Yes, the look on your face was priceless!
That look, it was so priceless
It's a proclamation
Of the things you aren't
The ways you wish you were
A split second
Percieving of the way you really look to everyone of them
I wish that you could see because
I wish that you could see
The look on your face was priceless!
The look on your face was priceless!
Yes, the look on your face was priceless!
That look, it was so priceless

Diamond As Big As The Ritz
Hidden in the mountains
Under the earth and stone
A cubic mile of perfection
Treasure no one has known
One man came upon this motherlode
Built himself a thousand room chateau
Hes the emperor of diamonds
Master of the prize
Hes got the hold on happiness
And all that money can buy
Everyday he lives in fascination
This is not an everyday temptation, no
Its the diamond as big as the ritz
What you gonna do with this
Tell me whos goin to save you
When youre a slave to the
Diamond as big as the ritz
A blessing can become a curse
If you keep it to yourself
Our own exaggeration
Is not so good for your health
Its the prophecy of the unattainable dream
If you take one look behind the shine
It doesnt always gleam
Everyday he lives in fascination
This is not an everyday temptation, no
Its the diamond as big as the ritz
What you gonna do with this
Tell me, whos goin to save you
When youre a slave to a
Diamond as big as the ritz
(diamond. diamond. diamond. diamond. diamond)
Coal under pressure (diamond)
Sparkle of treasure (diamond)
Crystaline measure (diamond)
On a mental pleasure (diamond)
In the corner of your eye (diamond)
Make a grown man cry (diamond)
All the seeds youve sown (diamond)
Greed can crumble your castle walls
Greed can purchase you thrills
Power is a dangerous drug
It can maim, it can kill
Its the prophecy of the unattainable dream
If you take one look behind the shine
It doesnt always gleam
It was a diamond as big as the ritz
What you gonna do with this
Tell me, whos goin to save you
When youre a slave to a
Diamond as big as the ritz
It was a diamond as big as the ritz
What you gonna do with this
Tell me, whos goin to save you
When youre a slave to a
Diamond as big as the ritz

Rainbow Girl
Rainbow Girl, Rainbow Girl, you really are beautiful
The world is blind, 'cause you're indisputable
The one word that drives me mad
No, not angry, nor is it sad
It brings the smile none can bring
Makes me feel like I'm the king
Your eyes are so very deep
If I stare at them I lull to sleep
When your hair falls over your eye
The world thinks you're a lie
Little does anyone know
How sometimes you feel low
Indeed a donkey knows not a diamond's worth
It keeps looking for comfort in the earth
You are worth more than diamonds indeed
Priceless you are, the world's in need
Rainbow girl, rainbow girl, you must not despair
Such priceless humans are infact rare
If you ever feel low know you're beautiful
Because you and I both are true to you

She Loved Like Diamond
She ran the risk from unity
Obsession dies alone with tragedy
She loved like diamond
She loved like diamond
And cut so hard
She died
A passion course that leads to pain
An acid taste that laced her soul again
She loved like diamond
She loved like diamond
And cut so hard
She died
Another path,Ive run them all
The rain has cleared the stains,no trace at all
She loved like diamond
She loved like diamond
And cut so hard
She died

Sentimental Value
Comes in a pair; glitters, sparkles, shines
They are elegant and valuable
Priceless in more than one way
In addition - light and very comfortable
Sentimental value is evident and clear
No money in the world can replace them
They are a lady's best friend
Precious beauty quite a gem
Pair of diamond earrings; so special to me
One diamond was a gift from my husband
Other diamond was matched by my father
Equally translucent as a tear gland
Both exceptional men are now in Heaven
Dad died nine years ago; soon it will be
Memories from both will last forever
My husband died this February

I am a diamond
If you said what you wanted to say
And you hurt me everyday
Would I still need your love?
I can see your love is not enough?
And if you would need me? Why do I allow you to treat me this way?
Would our love stand still? The words you say rub me
the wrong way!
You can rub me
I am a diamond
You can rub me,
The more you rub me
the more I shine
People can rub me
But I am a diamond
I will shine more and more
And you think I am the one to blame
But I no longer live that game
Everything I wished for, is in me
Too bad it took me so many years to see?
The more you rub me, the more I will succeed?
Your words can only touch me.
But I will let them go.
I don't need anyone but me.........
I am diamond the strongest that can be...
I am diamond do you want to shine with me?

Four Cs of woman t
Carat of diamond is clan of woman.
Clarity in diamond is cleanliness in woman.
Colour of diamond is composure of woman,
Cut of diamond is cuteness of woman..
The four Cs grade the diamond and the woman.
Being diamond itself is a value.
Being woman itself is a value.

Radiate
Verse 1
Sunday mornin , its a quarter to five
You keep on talkin like your love is a prize
Bird in flight , spreadin her wings
Sittin pretty in a city of sin
Release 1
I dont mind , adventure with a stranger
Trouble deep at the scene of the crime
Testify , that Im not superstitious
Its tough enough , to find out why you
Chorus
Radiate ... you bait your love with money
Celebrate ... a body to behold
Generate ... a state of wild emotion
Dont waste your money , my love is not for sale
Verse 2
Funny faces in the shadows of night
Pain and pleasure is your only disguise
Radiate , your fates on the fire
Stay awake , love is a lie
Release 2
In the street , life is your creation
Trouble deep if you wake up on your own
Im a slave to sweet investigation
Its tough enough to find out why you
Chorus
Break
Chorus 3 times to fade

Kite
Come up and be a kite
Beelzebub is aching in my belly-o.
My feet are heavy and Im rooted in my wellios.
And I want to get away and go
From all these mirror windows.
I look at eye level, it isnt good enough.
And then I find it out when I take a good look up.
Theres a hole in the sky with a big eyeball
Calling me:
Come up and be a kite,
On a diamond flight!
A diamond kite, a diamond kite.
Ooh, what a diamond!
A diamond kite
On a diamond flight.
Over the lights, under the moon.
Over the lights, under the moon.
Over the moon, over the moon!
I feel a rush along my body, like a bullet.
Im 2-d after a push-and-pull feeling.
And I want to get back to safe home:
I love the homeland dome.*
I got no limbs, Im like a feather on the wind.
Well, Im not sure if I want to be up here, at all.
And Id like to be back on the ground,
But I dont know how to get down--down--down!
Come up and be a kite,
On a diamond flight!
A diamond kite, a diamond kite.
Ooh, what a diamond!
A diamond kite
On a diamond flight.
Over the lights, under the moon.
Over the lights, under the moon.
Over the moon, over the moon!

Diamond In My Crown
(Emmylouy HarrisPaul Kennerley)
As each long day rolls by and falls behind me
In the lonely night there's a peacefulness I've found
Tho' I'm weary even then
When I rise to start again
Ther'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown
I have wasted all that life has laid before me
I have watched as all the green fields turn to brown
But I shall not disavow
All these ties that bind me now
Ther'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown
Shinning down some day I know
Brighter than all their streets of gold
When the burdens that I carry I will lay down
And the sorrows I have known
I'll see them all be overthrown
Ther'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown
Through the passing of the years I will grow stronger
Just as sure as this old world keeps spinning 'round
Then the closer I will be
To my sweetest victory
Ther'll be a diamond, a diamond in my crown
