Monopoly

If the grass is always greener,

Stand on both sides of the fence

It's possible to play the field

while sitting on the bench

Jam all your grubby fingers

In each and every pie

Take the best of both worlds

And never study why

Don't agonise over choices

You can join and beat them

Stuff your greedy little face

Have your cakes and eat them

Don't win some, lose some

The winner takes it all

Use the rainy day one now

There's another in the hall

Pop an egg in every basket

Get more cooks on that broth

The more the ******* merrier

And I want the ******* lot.
