Lovely Money Lyrics - The Damned

A-side of single, also appears on 'Damned But Not Forgotten' CD 

(Vanian/Scabies/Sensible/Gray) 

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 a 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 bars 

And end up feeling sickie 

And we're all making money 

Lovely money

Rubber necks with cash to burn 

Export criminals return 

They keep on coming, never learn 

They fill their diaries page by page 

And make it sound so thrilling 

They're searching for the real thing 

They're flushed and they are willing 

And we're all making money 

Lovely money 

The victors of the opium wars 

Now take their trips and open doors 

They stand upon the actual floors 

Actual floors, actual floors 

Photos 

It makes them proud to be around 

And take their summer piccies 

To drink at night in Soho bars 

And end up feeling sickie 

More money, more money 

More money, more money 

Now off you go, away you fly 

We've had your money now goodbye 

We fleeced you good we bled you dry 

Goodbye goodbye 

(repeat to fade)
