There Goes a Tenner

Okay, remember

Okay, remember

That we have just allowed half an hour

To get in, do it and get outThe sense of adventure

Is changing to danger

The signal has been given, I go in

The crime beginsMy excitement turns into fright

All my words fade

What am I gonna say?

Mustn't give the game awayWe're waiting

We're waiting

We're waitingWe got the job sussed

This shop's shut for business

The lookout has parked the car

But kept the engine running

Three beeps means trouble's comingI 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 tonightBoth my partners act like actors

You are bogart, he is George Raft

That leaves Cagney and me

(What about Edward G?)We're waiting

Were waiting

We're waitingYou blow the safe up

Then all I know is I wake up

I'm covered in rubble, one of the rabble

Needs mummy

The government will never find the moneyI'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 solicitorOoh, I remember

That rich, windy weather

When you would carry me

Pockets floating in the breezeOh, 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
