Free Lunch for Doc Wilde
Free lunch: there’s no such thing!
There is a price for every thing,
although at first it may seen free.
There’s strings attached you do not see.
The innocent and the naïve,
might well mistakenly believe.
That kindly merchants give away
some things for which you need not pay.
Then realise to their surprise
that they have paid a higher price.
for something free apparently.
They have been screwed right royally.
If it looks too good to be true
it usually is I’m telling you.
