"Knowledge is free" a naοve poster decrees
No, knowledge is something that's not
Given away -- not anymore
It's much too powerful now
For the world to ignore
It's a nice thought: "free" -
But consider the cost
Of innocence betrayed
Or irrevocably lost
-- Innocence? Not like before. No,
That was thrown out with the apple core.
And there's no return. You can
Sit on a mountain and study the view
But there's never a return --
(All of this time and they still haven't learned)
