Fabian singing a song he wrote the words for, and George came up with the music...
lyrics
Magic money's something special you only find when you are broke,
And going through the ashtrays to roll yourself a smoke,
And you wish you had some rum to water down that glass of Coke,
Magic money is the punchline to that bad financial joke
You might find it down the sofa or in the pocket of old jeans,
Check that shirt you never wear or your dirty laundry by all means,
Magic Money's what you hope for when you're running for the hills,
Magic Money's kinda free and it's not for paying bills
Magic Money's what you need when your down to your last penny,
its the money you find when you thought you hadn't any,
this money's not for counting or for a rainy day,
Magic Money's is inviting you to dance the night away
Magic money should be just enough to help you feel good,
Its not to be relied on - Lady Luck playing Robin Hood,
Have a good time, a bottle of wine, go down and hear your favourite band
Magic money's quickly gone again so spend it while you can
Magic Money's what you need....
