Roosevelt On the Dime
LIFE IS
NOT A MAGAZINE
OF FAR AWAY PLACES
OR OF PEOPLE
OF FAR AWAY FACES
BUT A GAME
WHERE EVERYONE THE SAME
GETS TO THE FINISH LINE
IN TIME
ALTHOUGH
ROOSEVELT IS ON THE DIME
AND HITLER WAS A SLIME
BETTER LAST
THAN FIRST
STANDING UP
THAN LYING DOWN
ON YOUR SIDE
ASS IN THE AIR
MOVE THE CHECKER
ONE RED SQUARE
ONE BLACK SQUARE
DONT PART YOUR HAIR
DONT PASS GO
GO SLOW WITH THE FLOW
SPIN THE DIAL
GO TO THE OFFICE
GO TO SCHOOL
PUT UP WITH THE FOOL
DO THE DRILL
DONT PASS GO
SAY NO
GO WITH THE KNOW
FLIP THE CARDS
YOUR MOTHERS ON TRIAL
FOR HAVING A FILE
USE GET OUT OF JAIL FREE
HAVE SOME TEA
SHOOT THE DICE
HAVE A SLICE
LOOK FOR LICE
LOOK ONCE
LOOK TWICE
LOOK TRICE
FOR LOOKING IS NOT A VICE
DONT HOLD
ONTO THE PASS
STEP ON THE GAS
TIME MOVES FAST AND
LIFE WONT LAST
IF YOU STAND STILL
YOU MAY BE KILLED
BY THE BLAST
LIFE IS A GAMER
AND AS LONG AS YORE IN IT
YOU ARE A PLAYER
ON WAIVER
ONE WAYER
OR ANOTHER
