A Crítica Sarcástica ao Materialismo em Money do Pink Floyd
A música Money do Pink Floyd é uma sátira mordaz ao materialismo e à ganância que caracterizavam a sociedade nos anos 70, época em que a canção foi lançada. A letra, escrita pelo baixista Roger Waters, é uma crítica direta à obsessão por riqueza e ao comportamento egoísta que muitas vezes acompanha a acumulação de dinheiro. A faixa faz parte do álbum 'The Dark Side of the Moon', de 1973, que explora diversos aspectos da condição humana, como ganância, conflito e insanidade.
O refrão 'Money, get away / Get a good job with more pay and you're okay' reflete a ideia de que o dinheiro é a solução para os problemas e a chave para uma vida satisfatória. No entanto, a canção rapidamente subverte essa noção, com linhas como 'Money, it's a crime / Share it fairly, but don't take a slice of my pie', sugerindo que, embora a distribuição justa de riqueza seja ideal, a realidade é que as pessoas são relutantes em compartilhar o que têm. A linha 'Money, so they say / Is the root of all evil today' faz referência ao ditado bíblico, mas com um toque cínico, indicando que, apesar de reconhecerem o mal que o dinheiro pode causar, as pessoas continuam a persegui-lo avidamente.
Musicalmente, Money é notável por seu compasso incomum de 7/4 na maior parte da canção, o que contribui para a sensação de desequilíbrio e estranheza, refletindo a distorção moral que o dinheiro pode causar. O solo de saxofone e os efeitos sonoros de caixa registradora reforçam o tema do consumismo. A parte falada no final da música, que parece ser uma discussão em um estúdio, adiciona um elemento de realismo e pode ser interpretada como uma metáfora para a confusão e os conflitos que o dinheiro pode trazer para as relações humanas. Em suma, Money é uma crítica afiada e ainda relevante à sociedade capitalista e ao valor excessivo que é atribuído à riqueza material.
Money, get away
Dinheiro, sai fora

Eu não sei, eu estava muito bêbado na época
I was just telling him it was in, he couldn't get into number two
Eu estava apenas dizendo a ele que estava dentro, ele não poderia entrar no número dois
He was asking why it wasn't coming up on fader eleven
Ele estava perguntando porque não chegava no canal onze
So after our yelling and screaming
Então, depois de nossos gritos e berros
I'm telling him why it wasn't coming on fader eleven
Estou dizendo a ele porque não estava chegando no canal onze

*Звон монет, шум кассового аппарата и машины, пересчитывающей деньги*
[Куплет 1]
Деньги, прочь
Устройся на работу с оплатой получше и всё будет в порядке
Деньги это топливо
Бери их и делай тайник
[Припев]
Новая машина, черная икра, сон наяву
Думаю купить себе футбольную команду
*шум кассового аппарата и машины, пересчитывающей деньги продолжается*
[Куплет 2]
Деньги, вернитесь
Всё в порядке, чувак, отвали от моих денег
Деньги это хит
Не говори мне про "Твори добро"
[Припев]
Я летаю в первом классе
Но думаю, что мне нужен личный реактивный самолет
[Соло на Саксофоне]
[Гитарное Соло]
[Куплет 3]
Деньги это преступление
Поделись с кем надо, но не трогай мою часть
Деньги, как говорят
Это корень всего зла на сегодняшний день
[Припев]
Но если ты попросишь больше, то
Не удивляйся, что будешь послан прочь
[Аутро: Дэвид Гилмор]
Прочь, прочь, прочь
Прочь, прочь, прочь, прочь
У-у-у
Прочь, у-у-у
У-у-у, у-у-у
[Аутро]
"Да, *Смех* я был прав"
"Да, абсолютно прав"
"Я точно был прав"
"Да, я была определенно точно права
Тот чувак прямо-таки напрашивался"
"Да"
"Не знаю, я тогда был очень пьян"
"Я сказал ему, что всё готово и он может получить это под номером два. Он спросил, почему оно не воспроизводится на одиннадцатом канале. Я долго с криками объяснял ему почему оно не воспроизводится на одиннадцатом канале, но пока я ему не врезал, он так ничего и не понял..."
[Songtekst van "Money (Live at Nassau Coliseum 1988)" (Vertaling)]
[Verse 1: David Gilmour]
Geld, ga weg
Je krijgt een goeie job met hogere betaling en je bent oké
Geld, het is gas
Neem dat cash met beide handen vast en maak een voorraad
Nieuwe auto, kaviaar, vier-sterren dagdroom
Denk dat ik mezelf een voetbalteam zal kopen
[Verse 2: David Gilmour]
Geld, kom terug
Ik ben in orde, Jack, hou je handen van mijn stapel
Geld, het is een hit
Ah, geef me niet die doe-goed-goed onzin
Ik ben in de zeer betrouwbare eerste klasse reizende set
En ik denk dat ik een Lear jet nodig heb
[Solos]
[Verse 3: David Gilmour]
Geld, het is een misdaad
Verdeel het eerlijk, maar neem geen stukje van mijn taart
Geld, zo zeggen ze
Is de bron van al het slechte vandaag
Maar als je om een stijging vraagt
Is het geen verrassing dat ze niet weggeven
Weg, weg, weg
Weg, weg, weg
