Money,
All for money,
Make your money,
Hide your money,
Stuff your money,
Hump your money
Save your money
All for money,
Waning patience
People's appetite
Disposition
This possession
Dispossessed from all the attractions,
Dancing bears of eroticism,
Self absorbed delusion
Inclusion of dysfunction
I now await the triumphant
Lost baggage, train station,
The causes of ineptitude
Can be traced to my mandatory down,
The causes of my servitude
Can be traced to the tyranny of
Money,
All for money,
Make your money,
Hide your money,
Stuff your money,
Hump your money
Save your money
All for money, [ Lyrics from: http://www.lyricsmode.com/lyrics/s/serj_tankian/money.html ]
My final surrender
Away from inclusion
I now await the triumphant
Left baggage, train station,
The causes of ineptitude
Can be traced to my mandatory down,
The causes of my servitude
Can be traced to the tyranny of a down,
The causes of ineptitude
Can be traced to my mandatory down,
The causes of my servitude
Can be traced to the tyranny of
Money,
All for money,
Make your money,
Hide your money,
Stuff your money,
Hump your money
Save your money
Make your money
Hide your money
All for money
Make your money
Hide your money
Stuff your money
Hump your money
Save your money
All for money,
Money, money, money, money.
This song outlines the effects of corporate backdoor deals and pocket stuffing. Those who own the big conglomerates play a role in the suffering of the people by not contributing their sometimes ill-gotten riches back into the system and making the standard of living easier top achieve. In my opinion, the song is sung from the standpoint of a homeless man who stalks the airports and train stations of his city, hoping to scrounge the leftover baggage that is simply left alone. Due to the state of the economy due to the forementioned conglomerate actions, the baggage claim represents his struggle to survive in our declining economic situation.
Lolz, i loke the way you guys think. One ups for all. See, of course the money has to do something with the world which is of course under rule of many government. Not just the usa, but other countries as well. All wating their money on boundless crap feeding generations of warbent loonies and their sick imaginations and contenplations of the future of the world. Then... Sometimes i dare not give meaning to songs so complex. Somethings are better left unsaid.
I believe the song is conveying the effect of money on terrorism, as we know that tankian is anti iraq war, he may be pointing out that in this ultra-capitalist society we had it coming
Its about how people's corruption and greed are killing what america once stood for. Im pretty well convinced that the president in here is supposed to be bill clinton. All his scandals were a pretty good example of whats gone wrong in our government.
I think that it is more that governments, ours especially, buy everyone to do what they want them to do. It's sad that most get suckered into it. At the end of it all, we are the ones who are suffering, not our governments; which are supposed to be doing what is best for us, not themselves.
This song is talking about how people get money and only think about what people can get out of it and how money is curupting the world and how people are addicted to money.. And will do anything for money
