This is a parody of Zero to Hero (from Hercules) about modern board games. Note: although 'euro' is a term for a specific type of modern board game, in this song I'm using it to encompass all of them (because it rhymes).

Lyrics:
Bless my soul
I have hit my goal
Every type of game from stocks to area control
Here I go
I am such a pro
Pick a random board game and it's something that I know
I didn't play much
Like zero, zero
Now my collection's
Chock full of Euros
I know the games and I know the strats
From zero to Euro in no time flat
Zero to Euro just like that
All I played
Was just Old Maid and
Candyland
And my favorite game
Was pretty lame
Was pretty bland
Monopoly and Parcheesi
Just didn't fit the bill
The Game of Life and Sorry
Left me feeling rather unfulfilled
Now I’ve found
All the games around
New, and highly rated
My collection will astound
I can play
Every night and day
With my friends, my partner,
Strangers, and my family
Now I can post in all the forums
And I will never die from boredom
I see the games when they premiere
From zero to Euro in just a year
Zero to Euro, let’s have a beer!
What started up the meeple gaming?
Carcassonne!
Which gets us into people blaming?
Avalon!
You want cards?
A deckbuilder
Try these games
They all bewilder!
Dominion, Ascension,
Bohnanza, Alhambra,
BSG, TI3
Bless my soul
I have hit my goal
I’m committed
Still not done
It’s been tons of fun
I won’t quit it
I wasn’t playing
Like zero, zero
Now my collection’s
Full of Euros
Playing these games is what I need
From zero to Euro
I like my Euros
Let’s play some Euros
Yes indeed
