When I was a kid, we didn't murder CEOs
They just gave us each a penny and we did what we were told
They don't care how many people they watch work themselves to death
The only thing they're scared of is a bullet in the chest

Monopoly money, they spend it like it's nothing
A mansion, an airplane, a couple politicians
Monopoly money, I kinda think it's funny
You buy your way to heaven
But you die like the rest of us

When I was a kid, they told me I could buy a home
I could get myself a family, a career, and then grow old
They don't care how many people they step on to get ahead
The only thing they're scared of is a bullet in the head

Monopoly money, they spend it like it's nothing
A mansion, an airplane, a couple politicians
Monopoly money, I kinda think it's funny
You buy your way to heaven
But you die like the rest of us

When I was a kid
They taught me how to shoot a gun
Told me I would be a soldier
If they ever needed one
They don’t care how many people they send home inside a box
The only thing thing they’re scared of is the thought of being shot

Monopoly money, they spend it like it's nothing
A sports team, a new car, a couple politicians
Monopoly money, I kinda think it's funny
You buy your way to heaven
But you die like the rest of us

It’s hard
To die with such a guilty heart
And leave this world much better off
When you live like a parasite
Nobody misses you when you die

Monopoly money
They spend it like it's nothing
You die like the rest of us
