lyrics

(GOOD OLD) MONOPOLY

hey hey I know a game
let’s play «enterprise» without shame
let us dream of cash and fame
of illusions quite insane

in that hothouse bankers see
millions, billions – monopoly
bills and checks and stocks and all
it’s unreal and it will fall

too big to fail
unwilling to shrink
money-mad minds
too narrow to think

they spew towers called skyscrapers
drowning creatures in crude oil
they trust blindly printed papers
and in numbers and in spoils

might and money make them witless
while ignoring air and soil
tough controlling every business
bringing atoms to the boil

too big to fail
unwilling to shrink
money-mad minds
too narrow to think

back now to that silly game
monopoly – name of the blame
we have better games to play
in our manner in our way

too big to fail
unwilling to shrink
money-mad minds
too narrow to think
