Carnival World Lyrics

My father always said that there's no free ride

You've got to make a sacrifice

So many prophets on the Lord's side

Even your soul has got a price

But talk is cheap

It takes money to buy your freedom

And the tax man's knockin' on your door

Spend it while you can, money's contraband

You can't take it with you when you go

Spend it while you can, before it's taken from your hand

There's no free ride in this carnival world

There's no free ride in this carnival world

Too many hawkers on this travelin' show

Everybody's got somethin' to sell

Bootleg Swatches, cardboard, Gucci gear

Watch your step at the wishing well

But talk is cheap

It takes money to buy your freedom

And the tax man's knockin' on your door

Spend it while you can, money's contraband

You can't take it with you when you go

Spend it while you can, before it's taken from your hand

There's no free ride in this carnival world

There's no free ride in this carnival world

What's mine is mine

If it's only one thin dime

My cash was always meant to flow

Spend it while you can, money's contraband

You can't take it with you when you go

Spend it while you can, before it's taken from your hand

There's no free ride in this carnival world

There's no free ride in this carnival world

There's no free ride in this carnival world

There's no free ride

There's no free ride

There's no free ride
