Prokofiev was a single released by The Damned in 1991.

The song was recorded in June 1990 in Rat Scabies home studio, consisting of a loop of The Stooges song "Gimme Danger", over which Brian James improvised on guitar and sound effects. At some point later some vocals by Dave Vanian were added.

The single was sold on The Damned's September 1991 reunion tour of the US and came without a picture sleeve. It was later remixed for "Not of This Earth" in 1996.

The song was a tribute to composer Sergei Prokofiev.
