I was walkin along the city streets, nclouds were forming.nIt seemed there would be na storm coming soon.nI bought a coat and I dug a moat, nwent in to my castle.nGrabbed a smoke, nreally, I'm so stoned.nNow the word that speaks so real to me nis the word of all that came to be.nFrom nothing you get nothing,nnothing at all for free.nnBecause oh, nothing's free.nOh, nothing's freenOh, nothing's free.n(my college education sure isn't free!)nnnWell the last I heard, nthere was war you see nand it was bigger nthan a war like world war three. nBombs and guns and ammo they sold out fast.nBut me I was home in my castle grounds.nIt's words I like and a brand new bike, na castle at the edge of twilight. nI watched on TV and heard the sounds, nthe sounds of war were comin' to me for free.nnBut oh, nothing's free.nOh, nothing's free.nOh, nothing's free.n(gas prices sure aren't free!)nnNow the whiskey bottles parade the coutnernin a single file line,n'cause a handle a nightnmeans we had a gooooood time.nNow I'm living, loving, laughing, giving, nkissing, hugging, having fun,nTaking time to realize nthe beauty of the company I'm keeping. nBaby.nI get out enough change,nto walk down to the café,nI read the sign it says,nit says, get your drinks for free!nnBut oh, nothing's free.nOh, nothing's free.nOh, nothing's free.n(not even water is free!)nnOh, nothing's free.nOh, nothing's free!
