O Dinheiro Não É Tudo Mas É 100%

Falcão's song "O Dinheiro Não É Tudo Mas É 100%" is a satirical take on the intersection of politics and money, wrapped in a humorous and ironic tone. The lyrics play with mathematical concepts and everyday scenarios to highlight the absurdity and corruption often found in political life. The opening lines, "2 mais 2 são 4 / Sexta-feira à noite," set a seemingly straightforward scene, but quickly devolve into chaos with the mention of "o quadrado de 69," a playful and nonsensical phrase that hints at the complexity and confusion in political dealings.

The song continues to explore the theme of political corruption with lines like "1000 meu com 1000 seu é a comissão," suggesting that financial transactions in politics are often murky and self-serving. The mention of the treasurer being "assusta" (scared) but still taking a 10% cut further emphasizes the pervasive nature of corruption. Falcão uses these scenarios to mock the idea that money isn't everything, while simultaneously showing that it is, in fact, a significant driving force in politics.

Falcão's use of humor and irony is evident throughout the song, particularly in the chorus where he describes the appeal of entering legislative life. The lines "Entrar na vida legislativa / Puxar o trem com a caneta" suggest that political power is wielded with a pen, and the inclusion of "parentes, agregados, aderentes" (relatives, associates, adherents) highlights the nepotism and cronyism that often accompany political careers. The song ends on a note of resignation, with the artist acknowledging the inevitability of these corrupt practices and the fleeting nature of political alliances.
