Give It Away

This is from when I was in Kindergarten. The song goes:
Love something if you give it away, give it away, give it away. Love something, when you give it away, you'll end up having more!
It's just like a magic penny, hold on tight and you won't have any. Lend it, spend it, and you'll have so many, They'll roll all over the floor.
(Repeat first half)

I don't think I like the song very much. Was this supposed to teach us sharing? Money-management? Why is the only example (for something you love) money? And I'm not sure I get why it's a "magic" penny. Weird.
