Lyrics:

Don't blame your daughter,
that's just sentimental
and don't blame your mum
for all that you've done wrong
your daddy's not guilty
you came out a little faulty
and the factory closed
so you can't hold them liable
you come from an island,
you're cutting diamonds
with a rubber knife
your autograph's worthless
so don't send me letters
and don't mail me cash
'cause your money is no good
what's left in your mattress
is holes that lack of love
left some hair from a horse
and none of it is yours,
man you come from an island,
you're cutting diamonds
with a rubber knife

and the song you sing today
wasn't always in your head
the words you try to say
are the ones you should've said
they're glistening like diamonds,
go out and find them,
but don't blame your daughter
read me your tombstone, tell me you're sorry,
fax me your will, you owe me something still
blood is like water, the bath that you poured me
has drained and is gone
don't blame it on your son
and the song you sing today
wasn't always in your head
the words you try to say
are the ones you should've said
they're glistening like diamonds,
go out and find them.
The world is full of diamonds, go out and find them,
but don't blame your daughter.
