Jump to: Overall Meaning ↴ Line by Line Meaning ↴
Like recycling it, yeah we get it okay
We get that
PhilHealth, PhilHealth stole my money
PhilHealth, PhilHealth got away
PhilHealth stole from me
And PhilHealth killed my family
I went to the ATM
At 10:36am
To withdraw my money
Just to pay my rent
But little did I know
That my balance was near zero
Cuz PhilHealth stole it
PhilHealth stole it
PhilHealth stole
PhilHealth, PhilHealth stole my money
PhilHealth, PhilHealth got away
And PhilHealth stole from me
And PhilHealth killed my family
PhilHealth, PhilHealth got away
Where did my money go
Where did my money go
Don't tell me, PhilHealth
Because I already know
PhilHealth stole
My money
PhilHealth, PhilHealth got away
And PhilHealth stole from me
And PhilHealth killed my family
PhilHealth, PhilHealth got away
PhilHealth, PhilHealth stole my money
PhilHealth, PhilHealth got away
And PhilHealth stole from me
And PhilHealth killed my family
PhilHealth, PhilHealth got away
The Palomas's song "PhilHealth Stole My Money" is a satirical take on the inefficiencies and corruption of the Philippine Health Insurance Corporation (PhilHealth). The lyrics speak of the frustration and anger of a person who discovers that their money has been stolen by PhilHealth, leaving them unable to pay their rent. The repetition of the chorus, "PhilHealth, PhilHealth stole my money," emphasizes the gravity of the situation and the helplessness of the victim. The lyrics also suggest that the corruption of PhilHealth has severe consequences, even resulting in the death of the singer's family.
The use of humor in the song highlights the absurdity of the situation while also serving as a coping mechanism for the singer and the audience. The repetition of the line "Where did my money go? Don't tell me, PhilHealth, because I already know," is a nod to the widespread awareness of corruption in PhilHealth and the lack of accountability from its leaders.
Overall, the song captures the frustration and disillusionment of the Filipino people towards the government's inability to provide basic services and protect their citizens' interests.
