Games

Well, I remember playing monopoly.
I was the old shoe, you were the ship at sea.
Standing on your deck so slippery,
I fell out of touch, out of harmony.

I know I tend to be competitive,
When we'd play risk, something had to give.
There's places on the map, that don't exist,
And places plundered in my soul with your impartial kiss.

Let me win a little, let me lose it again,
You're driving me crazy, you're driving me insane,
Dice were made for fools, love for breaking rules,
You broke this fearless fool, playing your games.


Trouble was the game, that you loved best,
Your accomplishment, putting me to the test,
The popping dice, the popping heart beats.
The trouble with you, is risking monopoly.

I think I would have liked to play twister.
Maybe even played the game with your sister.
You didn't allow me to sit in jail.
Do not pass go - do not collect your gumption just bail.

Well let me win a little, let me lose it again,
You're driving me crazy, you're driving me insane,
Dice were made for fools, love for breaking rules,
You broke this fearless fool, playing your games.
