The Lyrics

Another one from pre-2014. Original song on YouTube

Clothes she buys without an end
Latest fashions all name brand
Cannot be petty
Work steady
‘Cus money melts in her hand

I’ll be clocking in on Sundays
Overtime I must demand
Betting I’m Getty
Jet setty
‘Cus money melts in her hand
Money, likes her, on hand

When honey racks up the...
Claims, well they stack up, duh!
Yes, money melts in her hand

Now money is her main plan
She’s the reaper of my fees
See credit getting squeezed
By retail therapies
Rapt by purchasing unplanned

Run aground by fickle spend
Jewels and facials she demands
Ready for debty
More bready!
‘Cus money melts in her hand
Money melts in her hand

When honey likes something...
It’s funny how nothing’s...
Left - money melts in her hand

Money melts in her hand
Money, yikes! Furs, gold band

Now duns I hike up...
Me, shuns my bank, ugh!
Yes! Money melts in her hand

Stun me!

I know the feeling. More bready! Didn't know this song. Only ever heard Werewolves. Hi Pip, how ya doing? 4 years since we tried & failed to get it going again. Anyone else still around? I've suddenly got the urge to do a few more. Are you posting on Mondays or just randomly?

Hi Andy. Merry introduced me to a bit of Zevon stuff. Check out "My sh*t's fu**ed up" and "Roland the Headless Thompson Gunner"! Great songs. In answer to your questions, yes, there are a few old heads around but CML and Phil seem to be the only ones who will comment regularly. Trying to post one per week, it is a back catalogue of stuff we had done for years! Glad to see you have the urge to do more, I will keep a lookout. I will also post this on your parody from today so you have 2 chances of seeing it.

Just played the 2 tracks. Not bad. Both vids had the Excitable Boy LP cover. His image is completely at odds with what I listened to. I would have expected a gnarly old Johnny Cash type! Prob gonna put another on for Monday (if I've got time to finish it)

Glad you liked them. In that case, I will submit a M&P parody each weekend so they regularly come out on a Monday. So we can see each others' ;)
