about

SCENE: Candyce’s loft, the same evening. Cliff is lasciviously obsessing over what a prize he thinks Candyce is. Candyce counters by letting him know that she is not his object to possess.

lyrics

Jewels
(Cliff / Candyce)

[Cliff]
In a dream…
That’s where I first saw you:
In my dreams
The night we met
you were just glowing
Ever since then
we’ve been going and going and going
out there every night
spending all my money

You’re a jewel!
That’s what you are – a jewel!
Looks like I bought myself a jewel
A subterranean treasure
Usually a man has to move mountains
to find one single jewel
And this one – this one is mine

Another year, still here and king of the street
playing the high rolling alpha man bedroom athlete
When you take your place beside me
I feel your energy
I feel your anger
I feel your rage
when you put those scratch marks on my back
that scar me when your light becomes shadow
and camouflages your attack

So vicious
So delicious
You’re my sly,
wild, overstyled lascivious bitch
looking fine
looking fine, even finer when you’re mine
when you shine
in my mind
so divine
in my hands
you'll recline
and I’m never gonna
never gonna never gonna never gonna never gonna
let you go
until I’m through with you

Got a jewel, I got the crown jewel
just like I said
Got the jewel, I got the crown jewel
when you slide into my bed
With someone else I could play it safer
but having you feels like pulling off a caper
Got what might just be the most expensive jewel in the world
on display in a setting made of favors

You tell me I can be pretty sweet
when I’m bringing the charm and putting out heavy heat
But when I hit the room it’s easy to be nice
cause on my arm’s a bird of paradise
and that room’s full of players
with billion dollar prayers
and eyes that advertise
envy, admiration and acclaim

[Candyce]
All of your staring looks like silent swearing
And all of your talking sounds a lot like stalking
Just keep on talking trash
throwing cash
from your stash
and in a flash I’ll slip
through your hands

I’m a jewel, a precious jewel
more than any you’ve known
When you come on like a loser
or a coked-up yakuza
to me you’re just a double-drag fool
