ALL THE MONEY

1780, St. Paul's Cathedral
1857, Victoria and Albert's Museum (where do they get all the money?)
(Where do they get all the money?)
4.6 million objects that span a period of five thousand years
(Where do they get all the money?)
1858, Big Ben
(Where do they get all the money, the money, the money?)

Tower of London falling down, falling down, falling down (falling down)
Democracy falling down, falling down, falling down (falling down)
Democracy falling down, falling down
Empires falling down, falling down (falling down)

Who helped build the country? (Who helped build the country?)
Who's getting deported? (Who's getting deported?)
Who's without citizenship?

1669, the Crown Jewels (where do they get all the money, all the money?)
(Where do they get all the money?)
I wonder where they get all the money? (Where do they get all the money?)
I wonder where they get all the money? (Where do they get all the money?)
All the money, all the money (the money)

Who paid it back? Who burned it?
How long did it burn?
Who had to breathe in the smoke?
Who had to chase the smoke away?
Who was the alarm?
Who's still burning? (Who's still burning?)
Was it before or after the Palace of Westminster?

So much money (so much money, so much money)
So many cowards (so much money, so much money)
So many cowards (so many cowards)
So many handshakes, how many contracts?
(So many handshakes, so many contracts)
All the money (where do they get all the money?)
All the money

St. Margaret's Church (where do they get all the money?)
A place of worship sits
1614 in the house of common evils (house of common evils)
(Where do they get all the money?)
(Where do they get all the money?)
Diamond Jubilee (where do they get all the money?)

1753, British Museum
(Eight million items, eight million objects)
They heard about the kingdoms of gold (they heard)
They heard about the books of mathematics, philosophy, and ritual
They heard about the rituals
They heard about the dances
They heard about the drums
They heard about the rhythms

They fashioned themselves like the Romans before them
Thieves disguised as explorers
The storm keeps raging (the storm keeps raging)
Falling down, falling down, falling down, falling down, falling down
Empires falling down, empires falling down, em-
The storm keeps raging
