    Keroauc used to walk these roads
    (I know he did, I know he did)
    Miles of type strewn behind him so
    (He knew how to live, he knew how to live)
    Throw the arching for a perfect dream
    (I know he did, I know he did)
    Red pills, blue pills, white pills, green
    (He knew how to live, he knew how to live)
    Look before you leap
    Watch the company you keep
    Never fall asleep
    Cause the oceans too deep
    Look before you leap
    Watch the company you keep
    Never fall asleep

    Freedom, ain't what it used to be
    Ain't what it ought to be
    It used to be so free
    Freedom, ain't what it out to be
    Ain't what it used to be
    I can't even think

    The art of war was written in blood
    (I know it was, I know it was)
    There is no peace not born of love
    (Just because, just because)
    Not sure who to kiss, you can't even fuck
    (Just my luck, just my luck)
    I'm riding home on the wings of a dove
    (Just because, just because)

    Freedom, ain't what it used to be
    Ain't what it ought to be
    It used to be so free
    No, Freedom, ain't what it out to be
    Ain't what it used to be
    I can't even think

    Look before you leap
    Watch the company you keep
    Never fall asleep
    Cause the oceans too deep
    Look before you leap
    Watch the company you keep
    Never fall asleep
