Lyrics

Oh, look outside the window There's a woman being grabbed They've dragged her to the bushes And now she's being stabbed Maybe we should call the cops And try to stop the pain But Monopoly is so much fun I'd hate to blow the game And I'm sure It wouldn't interest anybody Outside of a small circle of friends Ridin' down the highway Yes, my back is gettin' stiff Thirteen cars are piled up They're hangin' on a cliff Now maybe we should pull them back With our towin' chain But we gotta move and we might get sued And it looks like it's gonna rain And I'm sure It wouldn't interest anybody Outside of a small circle of friends Sweatin' in the ghetto With the colored and the poor The rats have joined the babies Who are sleepin' on the floor Now wouldn't it be a riot If they really blew their tops? But they got too much already And besides we've got the cops And I'm sure It wouldn't interest anybody Outside of a small circle of friends Oh, there's a dirty paper Using sex to make a sale The Supreme Court was so upset They sent him off to jail Maybe we should help the fiend And take away his fine But we're busy reading Playboy And the Sunday New York Times And I'm sure It wouldn't interest anybody Outside of a small circle of friends Smokin' marihuana Is more fun than drinkin' beer But a friend of ours was captured And they gave him thirty years Maybe we should raise our voices Ask somebody why But demonstrations are a drag Besides we're much too high And I'm sure It wouldn't interest anybody Outside of a small circle of friends Oh, look outside the window There's a woman being grabbed They've dragged her to the bushes And now she's being stabbed Maybe we should call the cops And try to stop the pain But Monopoly is so much fun I'd hate to blow the game And I'm sure It wouldn't interest anybody Outside of a small circle of friends
