LOVELY MONEY Taken from ... STRAWBERRIES  | They come to see the dungeons here
The tourists flock from far and near They do the tower and try the beer The picking pockets cost your life And every jury has its price They bring the kids and show the wife It makes them proud to be around And take their summer piccies To drink at night in soho clubs And end up feeling sickie And they're all, making money Lovely money Rubber necks with cash to burn Export criminals return The keep on coming never learn They fill their diaries page by page And make it sound so thrilling They're hunting for the real thing They're flush and they are willing And they're all making money Lovely money The victors of the opium wars They take their tips and open doors They stand up on the actual floors It makes them proud to be around And take their summer piccies To drink at night in soho clubs And end up feeling sickie Oh, you fell for it and you paid Yes we have got it made But don't look at it that way Through this iron traitors gate The more popular criminals Those darlings of the crowd Were taken smiling,into the tower More money,more money Rumour has it that the bloodstains Of charles 1's decapitation were Never actually washed from the stones More money, more money Now of you go away you fly We've had your money now goodbye We fleeced you good, we bled you dry Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye, goodbye... |
