I'm gonna write this in a book one day But for now this song will have to do It's about the lengths you and I were willing to go to To get some free food It was 1997 something I can't remember I'm bad with dates You and I were living in my van Everything that we had we had to take And the saddest song ever heard on the radio Was Let it snow let it snow let it snow Let it snow let it snow let it snow It said we have no place to go Let it snow let it snow let it snow We didn't have any place to go It snowed it snowed it snowed But wait Lets take it back a few years To the day were first met I moved to Bloomington to be a bum You were here on a full Mathematics scholarship I was from a small town You were from a small town We became the best of friends Where our story begins Is where our trouble begins I never had a dime to my name You liked playing games A local pizza place had a deal 10 coupons got a free 12inch Well heres what we did You see the college kids They never cut the coupons out Wed dig through the trash and find them A few nights work put pizza in our mouths We started to wonder where the coupons went After people turned them in So we looked in their dumpster and what did we find We found 140 of them Sooner then later we started making our own When kinkos got the red copy machine One day they busted me The manager said "we don't take photocopies" So I jumped into the car Told the driver to drive As we sped off into the night we yelled Free Pizza For Life Free Pizza for Life Free Pizza For Life Free Pizza For Life A few years later you dropped outta school
We both spent a few months in our home town We've both been down and out But we were doing our best to get back up now One night we were sleeping in my van It was fourteen degrees below I woke up because I heard something crack You said it was your foot frozen to the window Our desperation drove us to dishonesty We were criminals distinctive and vile Declared most of the world to be our enemy We stole checkbooks And credit cards Signed signatures that were not ours Slice after slice we ate Pizza every night We always shared it with our friends Gave the driver a mighty tip In our simple minds we had A slice of a paradise But I guess we took it a little too far Cause you ended up doing some time When they slammed the door to your cell I swear I heard you yell Free Pizza For Life Free Pizza For Life Free Pizza For Life Free Pizza For Life On the night that we bailed you out of jail It was 2 weeks later you looked scared and pale To celebrate setting you free We ordered some pizza And paid with forgery Cause when they knock you down You can't stay on the ground You gotta keep getting up You gotta keep putting your faith in luck And as we can clearly see That we made some mistakes For the most part I have no regrets At some parts I feel a little ashamed But it all worked out okay in the end And I think I would do it all over again Sorry your the one they caught I wish it coulda been me my friend I'm not saying we were wrong And I'm not saying we were right All I know is what we want Free Pizza For Life Free Pizza For Life Free Pizza For Life Free Pizza For Life
