I want to play a game of Buckaroo,
But the government says it’s a bad thing to do.
I want to play a game of Cluedo,
But that’s out of the question (so is Ludo).
I want to play a game of Twister,
But I don’t want to be labelled a resister.
I want to play a game of Monopoly,
But it wouldn’t accord with guidelines properly.
I want to play a game of Trivial Pursuit,
But that idea should get the boot.
I want to play a game of Pictionary,
But it’s best to be extremely wary.
I want to play a game of Risk,
But the government says it’s too much… risk?
Now I’ve run out of games to rhyme,
Best wishes to you this Christmas-time.
I couldn’t resist writing this in late November after the UK Government’s scientific advisory committee suggested that families should play quizzes instead of board games this Christmas…
