Monopoly

I like Monopoly ® a lot
I like Monopoly ®
I like Monopoly ® a lot
I like Monopoly ®
Won’t you Monopoly ® with me?

Can I be the thimble?
Can I be the thimble?
Cause the thimble’s the symbol
Of what I want to be
Protection filled with holes
That nobody can see

[Tin Pan Alley Rap]
Strolling down Oriental Avenue
Picking up some long-due revenue
2 Cs and a case of the fees
I got Uncle Pennybags down on his knees
Income tax all up in my shiznak
Chargin 75 for luxury, I’m on that like a crackalack
I got my choo-choos and all my biddies
Swimming in Crystal, getting down with my utilities!
Busting rhymes on my BO railroad
Get out the deodorant but my sweat never showed!
The community chest
Is where I’m at my best
Breaking it down better den all the rest
Am in the slamma’
Or am I just trippin’?
Cause if I locked up it be GO that I’m skippin’
But I blow that joint
Imma St. Charles Place
Pretty cool dude
So pump up the bass!

Can I be the thimble?
Can I be the thimble?
Cause the thimble’s the symbol
Of what I want to be
Protection filled with holes
That nobody can see

I got the Boardwalk
And I’m putting a hotel up
You can own all the railroads you want
Cause you land there once and you are bankrupt!

(Oh shit I hope you land there
I just spent 500 on getting my land share.)

Givin’ yourself no-interest loans
Leaving me nothing but your dirty old bones
How’s you get so much while I was taking a leak
I think I found the secret to your winning streak

Can I be the thimble?
Can I be the thimble?
Why don’t we trade, ok?
Take the terrier away
This Shetland is my shitland woe
This game makes me feel like E.A. Poe

(Grunge Part)
We’ve been playing this game for thirty-one hours
I think it’s about time we all hit the showers
That damn little dog is barking in my head
Didn’t I say I wanted the thimble instead?
I don’t want no Free Parking
I want that DAMN DOG TO STOP BARKING!

That was hilarious! As soon as you get those other parts up, post them right away.

It switches style a lot. Sometimes it sounds indie, and other times it sounds like pop. There are other parts I'm still writing.

:P It got hidden?

I like it. But what style is it when it's not grunge or rap?

it is quite something to wound someone and then pity their scars
