Decimal Change Over Song In come the dollars and in come the cents To replace the pounds and the shillings and the pence Be prepared for change when the coins begin to mix On the fourteenth of February 1966.
Chorus: Clink go the coins, clink, clink, clink Change over day is closer than you think Learn the value of the coins and the way that they appear And things will be much smoother when the decimal point is here. In come the dollars and in come the cents To replace the pounds and the shillings and the pence Be prepared folks when the coins begin to mix On the fourteenth of February 1966.
