There Goes A Tenner Lyrics

Okay remember, okay remember

 That we have just allowed

 Half an hour

 To get in, do it and get out

 The sense of adventure

 Is changing to danger

 The signal has been given

 I go in

 The crime begins

 

 My excitement

 Turns into fright

 All my words fade

 What am I gonna say?

 Mustn't give the game away

 

 We're waiting

 

 We got the job sussed

 This shop's shut for business

 The look-out has parked the car

 But kept the engine running

 Three beeps means trouble's coming

 I hope you remember

 To treat the gelignite tenderly for me

 I'm having dreams about things

 Not going right

 Let's leave in plenty of time tonight

 

 Both my partners

 Act like actors

 You are Bogart

 He is George Raft

 That leave Cagney and me

 (What about Edward G.?)

 

 We're waiting

 

 You blow the safe up

 Then all I know is I wake up

 Covered in rubble

 One of the Rabble

 Needs Mummy

 The government will never find the money

 I've been here all day

 A star in strange ways

 Apart from a photograph

 They'll get nothing from me

 Not until they let me see

 My solicitor

 Ooh I remember

 That rich windy weather

 When you would carry me

 Pockets floating in the breeze

 There goes a tenner

 Hey look! there's a fiver

 There's a ten shilling note

 Remember them?

 That's when we used to vote for him.
