Don't wanna call you up
I know exactly what it's gonna be
And I'm not ready to just work away
My youth today, just want L-O-V-E
You say, "Shut up," and hold my throat
You throw me 'cross the street
And it's not fair, I gave you everything, all of me
But you're breadcrumbing
Baby, you're Fifth Ave, penthouse by the beach
Got so many houses while nobody else can eat
Still, you're making more, more than you can spend
In a whole eternity, Monopoly man
What's your desire? Own the earth and stars
But still, you climb higher, do your damage, baby
What's it gonna take? Wha-what's it gonna take for
You to get it straight, you, you to get it straight, boy?
Yeah, you're on fire, so is everything now
It's getting higher, did your damage, baby
What's it gonna take? Wha-what's it gonna take for
You to get it straight, you, you to get it straight, boy?
And it's impossible
For everyone to leave the mess you made
We're paying for the things we can just grow
On our own, it's embarrassing
Baby, you're Fifth Ave, penthouse by the beach (Oh)
Got so many houses while nobody else can eat
Still, you're making more (Nasty), more than you can spend (Spend it)
In a whole eternity, Monopoly man
What's your desire? Own the earth and stars
But still, you climb higher, do your damage, baby
What's it gonna take? Wha-what's it gonna take for
You to get it straight, you, you to get it straight, boy?
Kill 'em with it, fists and the holster
Make him really work for it
Put 'em in the dirt, girl, shit on him
Make him lick the ground, babe
Empty the account, spread it all around
Kill 'em with it, fists and the holster
Make him really work for it
Put 'em in the dirt, girl, shit on him
Make him lick the ground, babe
Empty the account, spread it all around
Baby, you're Fifth Ave, penthouse by the beach
Got so many houses while nobody else can eat
Still, you're making more, more than you can spend
In a whole eternity, Monopoly man
What's your desire? Own the earth and stars
But still, you climb higher, do your damage, baby
What's it gonna take? Wha-what's it gonna take for
You to get it straight, you, you to get it straight, boy?
Yeah, you're on fire, so is everything now
It's getting higher, did your damage, baby
What's it gonna take? Wha-what's it gonna take for
You to get it straight, you, you to get it straight, boy?
