You Never Give Me Your Money

You never give me your moneyYou only give me your funny paperand in the middle of negotiationsyou break downI never give you my numberI only give you my situationand in the middle of investigationI break downOut of college, money spentSee no future, pay no rentAll the money's gone, nowhere to goAny jobber got the sackMonday morning, turning backYellow lorry slow, nowhere to goBut oh, that magic feeling, nowhere to goOh, that magic feelingNowhere to goNowhere to goOne sweet dreamPick up the bags and get in the limousineSoon we'll be away from hereStep on the gas and wipe that tear awayOne sweet dream came true... todayCame true... todayCame true... today...yes it didOne two three four five six seven,All good children go to Heaven
1st interpretation
This is about ambitious and creative youths that has been forced into an ordinary life. Taking different daytime jobs witch never give them peace of mind(Any jobber got the sack Monday morning, turning back Yellow lorry slow, nowhere to go).Artistic people with dreams that has so much to give but nowhere to put it(oh that magic feeling nowhere to go)And then finally the conclusion of the persons dreams, quit your job stop moarning your ordinary life and live it (One sweet dream Pick up the bags and get in the limousine Soon we'll be away from here Step on the gas and wipe that tear away One sweet dream came true... Today)

2nd interpretation
Sounds to me like it's about poor youth that have nowhere to go cause they have no home, no job or school to attend.. funny paper is money, but not real money. like the $, legal tender but not backed by anything with real value the magic feeling I imagine is the feeling you get when you have nothing to lose.. any politician will tell you that's a very dangerous state of mind to be in (especially if the politician likes to stay in power).. other people claim that's when your truly free..
