Lyrics:
What is money?
It helps us measure the value of things!
Like how much money,
Could pay for these diamond rings?
Yeah, I got money!
All these coins and all this paper,
Could spend my money and,
Or I could save it all up for later!

Over 3,000 years ago, as long as we can tell,
The first form of money was this little seashell!
200 years later, if you were a shopper,
You use metal coins made of bronze or copper!
In China, in the year 800, you were paid,
In the first form of paper money that was ever made!
You wanna know why we need money? I'll tell you!
Money helps us measure value!

Like how much are these new blue suede shoes?
Would you spent the money? Well, you gotta choose!
If you wanna buy that, then we'll do a trade!
You give me the money, and I give you the suede!
Or you can pay for services like learnin' ballet,
Or save all your money up for a rainy day!
I almost forgot, there's more you got to learn, see!
All over the world countries, use a different currency!
Euros, dollars, pesos, and francs!
There's even krypto-money on decentralized banks!

Money!
All these coins and all this paper!
Could spend my money and,
Or I could save it all up for later!
