THE FLYING LIZARDS
(From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia)
The Flying Lizards were a British experimental rock group that recorded several albums.
Career:
Formed by and led by David Cunningham, the group included avant-garde and free improvising musicians, such as David Toop and Steve Beresford as instrumentalists, plus Deborah Evans and Patti Palladin as main vocalists. It also boasted Michael Upton.
The group released an album entitled The Flying Lizards in 1979; their singles include the postmodern cover versions of songs such as Eddie Cochran's "Summertime Blues" (1978) and James Brown's "Sex Machine" (1984), as well as several originals. Their album Top Ten consists entirely of covers, done in a deliberately emotionless, harsh and robotic style. Their version of Barrett Strong's "Money" remains popular, and was used in the film soundtracks for The Wedding Singer, Empire Records, Charlie's Angels and Lord of War, as well as in the Emmy and Golden Globe award-winning American television medical drama, Nip/Tuck.
After the band's break-up, a posthumous album of dub instrumentals, The Secret Dub Life of the Flying Lizards, appeared.

FLYING LIZARDS - Money (That's What I Want)
The best things in life are free
But you can give them to the birds and bees
I want money
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
You love gives me such a thrill
But your love won't pay my bills
I want money
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
Money don't get everything it's true
But what it don't get I can't use
I want money
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
That's what I want
(That's what I want)
I want money
I want lots of money
In fact I want so much money
Give me your money
Just give me money
