Musical differences and the pressure of fame saw the band split up in October 1979. Pauline Murray and Robert Blamire went on to form Pauline Murray and The Invisible Girls and Fred Purser went on to join Tygers of Pan Tang, following his more heavy rock leanings.

Penetration Lyrics
Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
I'm having a dream that's so unreal
The notes all float around my eyes
New talk of [?] escapes my low lies
Guitar pressures, no security
Social heights, in near obscurity
Never in the limelight, strictly on the side
And money talks, yeah
Listen, can't you hear it
And money talks, yeah
Somehow, I can feel it
So you think you're a failure and you've never seen
All the good times that might never have been
We'll win in the end, if the talent shows through
The one certain thing is that we don't love you
And money talks, yeah
Listen, can't you hear it
Money talks, yeah
Somehow, I can feel it
In "Money Talks" by Penetration, the singer starts by acknowledging that they can't tell the listener how to feel. They proceed to describe a dream that seems surreal, where notes float around their eyes and talk of something new that they can't articulate escapes their low lies. The singer then explores the idea of security and social status, stating that they have never been in the limelight but rather on the side. There's a new ambition that they share with the listener, but there's pressure to succeed, and there's no security in pursuing their dreams.
The chorus, "Money talks, yeah, listen can't you hear it?" is repeated twice, which highlights the main theme of the song. The singer believes that money has a powerful influence on the world, and it speaks to people in different ways. They marvel at how people are driven by money, even if it comes at the expense of their morals and principles. The second verse gets more personal, where the singer addresses someone who thinks they're a failure and feels that they've never seen good times. The singer encourages them to keep pushing, and if they have real talent, they'll eventually win in the end. They then conclude the verse by stating that the one certain thing they know is that they don't love the person they address, which creates a sense of disconnection and loneliness.
Overall, the song is a critique of the role money plays in our society. It exposes how easy it is for people to sell out their ideals and values for the pursuit of wealth. The song lyrics suggest that while money may bring success, it doesn't guarantee happiness, and we shouldn't let it consume us.
