On an autumn morning in September 2008 US Treasury Secretary Paulson proposed the largest-ever government bailout, this time for the finance industry. Newman opened his Carnegie Hall appearance that night with "It's Money That I l Love."
The ultimate Reaganomics song written at the start of the era of America's fuck-you coarsening. It started in the early 80s when Americans cheered for themselves at the Olympics, but no one else.
Used to worry, 'bout the poor
But I don't worry anymore.
Used to worry 'bout the black man,
now I don't worry 'bout the black man.
Used to worry about the starving children of India.
You know what I say now about the starving children of India?
Correction, next line after "You know what I say now about the starving children of India?" is "Oh maama". I hated Reagan with a passion, but this was 78-79, it was post Hippie, Gov. Jerry Moonbeam and Carter, and the people that supposedly cared during the Hippie era, all white BTW, sold out, found out they needed money for their drugs, and lead into Reagan era. Randy had 'em pegged, I did too....
wasnt around back when this album came out but my dad was. He gave me the tape, loved it as a kid. Didnt get the meaning of any of the songs etc. but still genius :D
Must be why he writes all those crappy songs for films...
