Silly Love Songs make big profits for the music industry. But the prime movers and shakers in other industries know that the three little words that make the world go round are not "I love you," but "money, money, money." So why not sing the latter refrain? Compare Job Song for singing about how you earn said money. Also compare Money, Dear Boy, which is about projects (including songs) that are done purely because someone wants to make money. | |

"Silver and Gold" from Rudolph the Red-Nosed Reindeer is about the uselessness of money (it was The '60s), and although it completely misses the point of the gold standard, it's still a nice song. On the topic of Rankin/Bass Money Songs, The Little Drummer Boy's sequel had "Money, Money!", sung by General Brutus (played by Zero Mostel, no less!) and his tax collectors, and since it's Rankin/Bass... |

Referenced in "Rappin' Drakken" from Kim Possible. The song itself isn't heard, but Drakken and Shego listen to a rapper talking about her wealth. The Product Placement in the song gives Drakken the idea to promote his mind-control shampoo through a Totally Radical rap. | |

A number of Professional Wrestling stars have had 'rich X' gimmicks, but the best known by far is Ted DiBiase, who as the "Million Dollar Man" began using a heel-styled rap called "Its All About The Money" ("Everyone has a price for the Million Dollar Man," followed by his trademark Evil Laugh and a backing chorus singing "Money, money, money, money"). When his son, Ted Jr., came into WWE, he naturally got one of his own, "Priceless". Then he joined Legacy and dropped it. Once Legacy broke up, he got another one "I Come From Money". |

Ebenezer gives one to Jacob Marley, "Nothing Matters Except the Money," as he talks Scrooge into foreclosing the orphanage where his love interest works, on Christmas Eve, for the sake of cash. | |

"The Gold Diggers' Song (We're in the Money)" from Gold Diggers of 1933. Instrumental versions of this song have been used ad nauseum to represent the sudden and unexpected receipt of riches — in several Looney Tunes cartoons, and on the stock market reports on NPR whenever the Dow Jones Industrial Average goes up. | |

SpongeBob SquarePants: Resident cheapskate Mr. Krabs is pretty fond of these, such as "Ka-Ching" from Selling Out, "All This Money" from Atlantis Squarepantis, and "If I Could Talk To Money" from Money Talks. He also sings one on the Best Day Ever album. | |

The Evillious Chronicles' "Judgment of Corruption" song by mothy: "I'm the master of the court. I want money more than justice." The song is supposed to be a representation of the sin of greed, so it's a given. The corrupt judge goes so far as to damn himself to Hell for the sake of his fortune. | |

A more tame version than most is "96,000" in In the Heights, in which the cast fantasizes what they would do with the winning lottery ticket of $96,000. Unlike most versions of this trope, only Benny's and Daniella and Carla's dreams are even remotely selfish: Benny wants to become a businessman so rich Donald Trump would be his caddie (although he recognizes the amount of work that it would require - with the $96,000, he is planning to send himself to business school), Daniella and Carla want to travel, shop, and give themselves makeovers, Usnavi wants to return to the Dominican Republic, Sonny wants to end poverty in the barrio, and Vanessa wants to get out of the Washington Heights and move downtown so she can follow her dreams. | |
