Dinero
Roger Clyne Lyrics

The song Dinero by Roger Clyne & The Peacemakers is a commentary on the power dynamics that exist in our society. The first verse acknowledges the reality that those who are already wealthy will continue to accumulate riches, while those who are not will have to work hard just to survive. The line "How we gonna make bread without any dough?" is a reference to the fact that money is needed in order to make a living.

The second verse delves into the desperation and anxiety that can come with financial struggle. The lines "How much less you think we're gonna take? / How much more before we're gonna break?" suggest that people are reaching their breaking point and can't take much more of the economic inequality and instability that they are facing. The chorus reiterates the central theme of the song - that everything comes down to money, and that it has an enormous amount of power over people's lives. The final line, "How much ya give me if I sell my soul?" is a bleak comment on just how far people are willing to go in order to get ahead in a capitalist society.
