Sujet du devoir

We live in a greedy little world--
That teaches every little boy and girl
To earn as much as they can possibly--
Then turn around and
Spend it foolishly
We've created us a credit card mess
We spend the money that we don't possess
Our religion is to go and blow it all
So it's shoppin' every Sunday at the mall

All we ever want is more
A lot more than we had before
So take me to the nearest store

{Refrain:}
Can you hear it ring
It makes you wanna sing
It's such a beautiful thing--Ka-ching!
Lots of diamond rings
The happiness it brings
You'll live like a king
With lots of money and things

When you're broke go and get a loan
Take out another mortgage on your home
Consolidate so you can afford
To go and spend some more when
You get bored

All we ever want is more
A lot more than we had before
So take me to the nearest store

{Refrain}

Let's swing
Dig deeper in your pocket
Oh, yeah, ha
Come on I know you've got it
Dig deeper in your wallet
Oh

All we ever want is more
A lot more than we had before
So take me to the nearest store

{Refrain}

Can you hear it ring
It makes you wanna sing
You'll live like a king
With lots of money and things
Ka-ching!

1) The main activity described in this song is shopping. The writer of this song called it "kaching" from "cashing".
The song talks about people who spend all their money in shopping. It's like an addiction. The are shoppingaddicted.

2)It's a ring. It symbolizes money. It has a powerful attraction on people. People are appealed to money because it represents the power.

4) The fact that anyone can get anything with money. Thanks to loan, and credit cards, they feel rich, they have no limits and can get what they want. You have the feeling you have a lot of money

5) Shana Twain criticize this material society. The more loans and credit cards you have, the more you will spend. Then the consequences will be harder because you will have to pay everything back. And sometimes you got so many loans, that you are over your credit lines and you can't pay your loans back and you may lose everything. That's what happened with the subprime crisis. People got expensive mortgages and the interest rates kept rising, they were finally not able to reimburse their mortgage and they lost their home.
