A Whole New Monopoly
Lyrics and Vocals by Sentrovasi
Original Song A Whole New World by Alan Menken
Listen Here

I can show you a hell
With a single supplier
Competition can't enter
Thanks to entry barriers.

Set exorbitant price
Knowing it's still demanded.
Profits earned getting super-
normal every single year,

Monopoly...
The government cannot ignore,
They'll say that no means no,
It's bad you know,
Though it may seem appealing

Monopoly...
Produced where MR meets MC,
Deadweight loss everywhere,
But they don't care,
'cos now this is a real monopoly...

They keep competitors out,
With predatory pricing:
Goods priced under cost of production
To maintain the market share.

Monopoly... (Watch them jack up the price)
A giant market just for you, (Watch their coffers get fatter)
Just cause AR's demand,
They're in command,
And get to set the prices...

Monopoly... (Profits all maximized)
Beware X-inefficiency (Always strive to be better)
'Cos when they're way up there
It's crystal clear
What they have is a monopoly...

They've got money...
Don't need AE...
A hellish place...
Consumers face...
Monopoly...

Cheers,
Ashton
