listen!  

Sometimes I feel as if I am on a huge game board going forwards and backwards, acquiring and losing, and this song is about just that. The world is like a big Monopoly Board and we are all trying to win win win!!! che and winnie the pooh


THE GAME OF LIFE

Life is a game of imperfections of the soul
No one's in control, or so it seems.
You and I were reaching for the same forgotten stars
Nothing seemed to far, not even dreams.

	But I'm stuck inside a playing piece 
	And I'm searching for the truth
	And it's all inside
	THE GAME OF LIFE


I still can feel the pain of when you went past go
Collected all your dough, and took my heart.
Your fortune read "Confucious says you are a jerk!"
And now I can't hold back my evil side!

	But I'm stuck inside a playing piece 
	And I'm searching for the truth
	And it's all inside
	THE GAME OF LIFE

		Can you remember love so good?
		I can't believe that I believed the lies you cooked.
		Did you think that I'd just give up Broadway?
		You've got Marvin Gardens, now I'll race you to the top.

	But I'm stuck inside a playing piece 
	And I'm searching for the truth
	And it's all inside
	THE GAME OF LIFE

		Can you remember love so good?
		I can't believe that you believed the lies I cooked.
		Did you think that I'd just give up Broadway?
		You've got Marvin Gardens, now I'll race you to the top.

	But I'm stuck inside a playing piece 
	And I'm searching for the truth
	And it's all inside
	THE GAME OF LIFE
	But I'm stuck inside a playing piece 
	And I'm searching for the truth
	And it's all inside
	THE GAME OF LIFE
