Free Pizza for Life

[00:01.53] I'm gonna write this in a book one day
[00:03.11] But for now this song will have to do
[00:04.90] It's about the lengths you and I were willing to go to
[00:07.47] To get some free food
[00:09.73] It was 199- something I can't remember
[00:12.08] I'm bad with dates
[00:13.87] You and I were livin in my van
[00:15.84] Everything that we had we had to take

[00:18.01] And the saddest song ever heard on the radio
[00:22.12] Was let it snow let it snow let it snow
[00:24.38] Let it snow let it snow let it snow
[00:26.17] It said we have no place to go
[00:28.65] Let it snow let it snow let it snow
[00:30.35] We didn't have any place to go
[00:32.96] It snowed it snowed it snowed

[00:34.62] But wait

[00:35.73] Let's take it back a few years
[00:37.35] To the day were first met
[00:39.57] I moved to bloomington to be a bum
[00:41.62] You were here on a full
[00:42.64] Mathematics scholarship

[00:43.84] I was from a small town
[00:45.33] You were from a small town
[00:46.61] We became the best of friends

[00:48.66] Where our story begins
[00:50.49] Is where our trouble begins

[00:52.58] I never had a dime to my name
[00:55.44] You liked playin' games
[00:57.06] A local pizza place had a deal
[00:59.12] 10 coupons got a free 12inch
[01:01.21] So this is what we did
[01:02.16] You see the college kids
[01:03.40] They never cut the coupons out
[01:05.50] We'd dig through the trash and find them
[01:07.94] A few nights work put pizza in our mouths

[01:09.98] We started to wonder where the coupons went
[01:11.90] After people turned them in
[01:14.29] So we looked in their dumpster and what did we find
[01:16.34] We found 140 of them

[01:18.52] Sooner than later we started makin' our own
[01:20.56] When Kinkos got the red copy machine
[01:22.70] One day they busted me
[01:24.49] The manager said "we don't take photocopies"

[01:26.96] So I jumped into the car
[01:29.70] Told the driver to drive
[01:31.49] As we sped off into the night we yelled

[01:49.96] A few years later you dropped outta school
[01:51.75] We both spent a few months in our home town
[01:54.23] We've both been down and out
[01:56.23] But we were doin' our best to get back up now

[01:58.37] One night we were sleepin' in my van
[02:00.42] It was fourteen degrees below
[02:02.51] I woke up because I heard something crack
[02:04.85] You said it was your foot frozen to the window

[02:07.11] Our desperation drove us to dishonesty
[02:11.30] We were criminals distinctive and vile
[02:13.74] Declared most of the world to be our enemy

[02:15.87] We stole checkbooks
[02:16.94] And credit cards
[02:18.34] Signed signatures
[02:19.21] That were not ours
[02:20.69] Slice after slice we ate
[02:22.48] Pizza every night
[02:24.53] We always shared it with our friends
[02:27.13] Gave the driver a mighty tip
[02:29.10] In our simple minds we found
[02:31.06] A slice of a paradise

[02:32.95] But I guess we took it a little too far
[02:34.91] 'Cause you ended up doin' some time
[02:37.05] When they slammed the door to your cell
[02:38.62] I swear I heard you yell

[02:55.35] On the night that we bailed you out of jail
[02:57.14] It was 2 weeks later you looked scared and pale
[02:59.66] To celebrate setting you free
[03:01.41] We ordered some pizza
[03:02.48] And paid with forgery

[03:03.58] 'Cause when they knock you down
[03:05.63] You can't stay on the ground
[03:07.89] You gotta keep gettin' up
[03:10.28] Wou gotta keep puttin' your faith in luck
[03:12.12] And as we can clearly see
[03:14.34] That we made some mistakes

[03:16.66] For the most part I've got no regrets
[03:18.79] At some parts I feel just a little ashamed
[03:20.77] But it all worked out okay in the end
[03:22.81] And I think I would do it all over again

[03:25.20] Sorry your the one they caught
[03:27.25] I wish that it could'a been me my friend
[03:29.14] I'm not sayin we were wrong
[03:31.40] And I'm not sayin' we were right
[03:33.75] All I know is what we want
