Don’t think I’ve heard that one. For a minute I thought this was a regional variant of the “I like my coffee like I like my women” game (i.e. “I like my coffee like I like my women - cold and bitter”). I’ll still play, though: “I want a girl with a mind like a diamond - tiny, expensive, and fresh from the killing fields of Africa.” ---

And, I’m a chick!😛 Now, back to the music (still doing the one-legged running man) “…and a LOOOOOOOOOOOONNNNNNNGGGG jacket!” ---

“like a diamond…” Expensive & low resale value? I like a woman like my car, fast & easy to control. ---
