"Monopoly Money" lyrics

"Monopoly Money"

Pick your poison
Draw a card
A penny saved is a dollar spent
When living costs this much
Bow down to your founding fathers
Faceless ghosts on crumpled dollars
Even Honest Abe would say
His head don't make much cents these days

Who wrote the rules? Who runs the game?
Whose sticky fingers double dipping in the piggy bank?
Who won before they started playing?
Like a buttered up McDuck, diving in the deep end
Who stacked the deck? Who's got it made?
Who's got a card hiding up their sleeve?
Who plays the game and who gets played?
When it's all just made up Monopoly money
It's all just made up Monopoly money

Roll the dice
I wonder what you'll get this time
Was dear old daddy pushing pills
Or pushing up daisies on the side?
If money's the root of every evil
Find the tallest spaceship steeple
If the devil's really real
You'll find him preaching to the choir

Who wrote the rules? Who runs the game?
Whose sticky fingers double dipping in the piggy bank?
Who won before they started playing?
Like a buttered up McDuck, diving in the deep end
Who stacked the deck? Who's got it made?
Who's got a card hiding up their sleeve?
Who plays the game and who gets played?
When it's all just made up Monopoly money
It's all just made up Monopoly money
It's all just made up Monopoly money

From the dirt, we come
And to the dirt we all return
When the game is over
Even kings are just flesh and blood
You built your house of cards
But in the end it falls apart
I hope it's worth the time you spent
With all that made up Monopoly money

Who wrote the rules? Who runs the game?
It's all just made up Monopoly money
Who won before they started playing?
It's all just made up Monopoly money
Who stacked the deck? Who's got it made?
Who's got a card hiding up their sleeve?
Who plays the game and who gets played?
When it's all just made up Monopoly money
