"All the Money's Gone" is a single by Babylon Zoo and the first to be taken from the second album "King Kong Groover". The single was written and produced by Jas Mann and stalled at #46. An animated music video was made to accompany the single.

A Sunday Mercury review read: "Mann is having an identity crisis... he can't decide if he's [David] Bowie, Marc Bolan or Gary Glitter – but glam-rock, this disappointing record ain't".Sunday Mail writer Ewan MacLeod enjoyed the single's accompanying music video, but also drew an unfavourable comparison to Bolan, saying it is "a shame the song sounds like a rip-off of Seventies glam group T-Rex".

Retrospectively, AllMusic critic Dave Thompson wrote that the track sounds like "an unholy collision between Oasis and Barry Blue's 'Dancing on a Saturday Night'."
