Beautiful Ones
Oh, high on diesel and gasoline, psycho for drum machine
Shaking their bit to the hit,
Oh, drag acts, drug acts, suicide, in your dad's suits you hide
Staining his name again,
Oh, cracked up, stacked up, 22, psycho for sex and glue
Lost it to Bostik, yeah,
Oh, shaved heads, rave heads, on the pill, got too much time to kill
Get into bands and gangs,
Oh, here they come, the beautiful ones, the beautiful ones, la, la, la, la
Here they come, the beautiful ones, the beautiful ones, la, la, la, la, la, la, la
Loved up, doved up, hung around, stoned in a lonely town
Shaking their meat to the beat,
Oh, high on diesel and gasoline, psycho for drum machine
Shaking their bit to the hit,
Oh, here they come, the beautiful ones, the beautiful ones, la, la, la, la
Here they come, the beautiful ones, the beautiful ones
Oh, you don't think about it,
You don't do without it,
Because you're beautiful, yeah, yeah
And if your baby's going crazy
That's how you made me, la, la
And if your baby's going crazy
That's how you made me, wow, wow
And if your baby's going crazy
That's how you made me, la, la, la, la, la, la, la


Money
You though you'd come and amaze me honey
You though you'd come on and amaze me with your money
You though you'd come and amaze me honey
Get flash get cash, get phony.
You though you'd come and amaze me honey

Get rich get stitched, get lonely.
So come on amaze me,

Takes everyone, every son,
Every dad and every mum
Some find a one and a one turns them on
Into money, money, money
You though you'd come and amaze me honey,
You though you'd come on and amaze me with your money
You though you'd come and amaze me honey
Get wheels, get heels, get sloaney.
You though you'd come and amaze me honey,

It's a pig of a life for the man and the wife,
It's the money, money, money


Sam
You live on Lancaster Road
And you got a computer
And you go when the library's closed
And sit and think of the future
Oh, oh, oh, Sam, oh, oh, oh, Sam
Oh, oh, oh, Sam, you're my main man
You got a mum by the name of Anne
And she has got a daughter
And your brother Simon, well sometimes he gets out of hand
But he looks like John Travolta
Oh, oh, oh, Sam, oh, oh, oh, Sam
Oh, oh, oh, Sam, you're my main man
Oh, oh, oh, Sam, oh, oh, oh, Sam
Oh, oh, oh, Sam, oh, oh, oh, la, la, la, la, la
You drink tea in a cafe close to me
And sit and read the headlines
You don't seem to mind if the social's too unkind
Or if you're near the breadline
Oh, oh, oh, Sam, oh, oh, oh, Sam
Oh, oh, oh, Sam, you're my main man
Oh, oh, oh, Sam, oh, oh, oh, Sam
Oh, oh, oh, Sam, we do everything we can
