Most people make money via having a job, and some characters sing about their jobs (or jobs they're fantasising about having) or other people's, and this is when you get this trope. If the person is singing about their own job, this song could be positive, about how they really like their job because it contributes something important/good to society or because they just find it fun. It could also be negative, about how they hate their job (whether due to finding it boring, having a Mean Boss, not getting paid enough, it taking too long, finding it gross, or any other reason). It could also be a mixture of positive and negative, talking about how the job has both upsides and downsides.
