Cross Bones Style Lyrics

oh, how time flies, with crystal clear eyes
and cold as coal, when you're ending with diamond eyes
oh, come child, in a cross bones style
oh, come child, come and rescue me
'cause you have seen some unbelievable things

hater I have your diamonds and still
'cause you have seen some unbelievable things
hater I have your diamonds
oh, come child, in a cross bones style
oh, come child, come and rescue me
'cause you have seen some unbelievable things

hater I have your diamonds and still
so still
oh, how time flies, with crystal clear eyes
and cold as coal, when you're ending with diamond eyes
oh, come child, in a cross bones style
oh, come child, come and rescue me
'cause you have seen some unbelievable things

I saw an interview with Chan in 1998. She explained that this song was written after a trip to Africa. She met some orphans whose parents worked in diamond mines and were murdered by those who ran the mines.
