| bo en – Money Won't Pay (with augustus) Lyrics | 6 years ago |
|
Despite the upbeat tone, I feel like the song is kind of a comment on the troubles of the middle class. Money doesn't pay for the experiences in life, only time does, and "we're all so confined by the need to always make ends meet" stuck working overtime to appease our bosses. It's a song about living only on the weekends, and stuck in a soulless job that pays well, but not enough to truly compensate for the time it's taking away from you. Money won't pay (for) working all day, the limited time in your life is more important than money. People don't see life that way and will ask you to stay longer to work and to tough it out or "just be a man" for the good of the business while you suffer. |
