Like their debut album 'Freak Out' and succeeding album 'Lumpy Gravy', 'We're Only in It for the Money' is a concept album. It devotes its first half to left- and right-wing political satire, particularly Zappa's distaste of the hippie subculture, and its second half to presenting alternatives.

Reviews"...the card-carrying classic. Zappa's scabrous disembowelling of the hippy dream pitches caustic lyrics over contemporary folk-rock and pop styles....the album works brilliantly as a whole...", 5 Stars - Indispensable - "...a brilliant lampoon of flower-power so scathingly accurated he manages to prophesy the Kent State killings two years before they happened. Segues restlessly between pop, rock, doo-wop and musique concrete, all undercut by a vicious spoofing humour...", "Most of its songs poke fun at the commodification of pop counterculture....Despite the satire, it also works as one of the finest psych-rock albums of the period.", "...It Predicted Future Zappa Endeavors, Building a Groove-Fracturing Spazz-Rock Tradition...", Included in Q Magazine's "Best Psychedelic Albums of All Time."
