Tell me what you would prefer 
A daffodil or a diamond 
It don't matter if you say the latter, 
No! 
It's like if you were given the sun 
You take the moon 
And something you wanted so bad 
Suddenly it ain't so cool 
If I were you I'd choose 
A daffodil, not a diamond 
And save 'em up, 
For a rainy day, rainy day 
It's just a day away 
And you may have the last one of it's kind 
(aah, oooo ooooo) 
Oh yes you might 

So when they come to buy 
Your last precious flower 
On the server 
A million diamonds they will pay 
And you'll tell 'em no way, no way 
That's right 
Don't exchange a daffodil for a diamond 

Just save 'em up 
For a rainy day, rainy day 
It's just a day away 
And you may have the last one of it's kind 
(aah, oooo ooooo) 

The end of the world turns to just fairy dust 
What a pretty gravestone it would make 
And you'd live under some other bright sun 
Yeah, that's a good one 
(oooo ooooo) 

Just save 'em up 
For a rainy day, rainy day 
It's just a day away 
And you may have the last one of it's kind 

Save 'em up 
For a rainy day, rainy day 
It's just a day away 
And you may have the last one of it's kind 
(aah, oooo ooooo) 

You know it, baby
