Music Monday: Rush — Something for Nothing

Here’s a weekly feature, offering a post of a libertarian-themed song, each Monday.

Here is Rush, with Something for Nothing. Lyrics appear below — enjoy!

Waiting for the winds of change
To sweep the clouds away
Waiting for the rainbows end
To cast its gold your way
Countless ways
You pass the days

Waiting for someone to call
And turn your world around
Looking for an answer to
The question you have found
Looking for
An open door

You don’t get something for nothing
You don’t get freedom for free
You won’t get wise
With the sleep still in your eyes
No matter what your dreams might be

What you own is your own kingdom
What you do is your own glory
What you love is your own power
What you live is your own story
In your head is the answer
Let it guide you along
Let your heart be the anchor
And the beat of your own song more >>

Daily Bread: August 3, 2009

Good morning, Whitewater

There’s one municipal meeting scheduled for the city today: a 4:30 p.m. Park and Recreation Board meeting. The agenda for the meeting is available online.

On this day in 1958, the U.S. Navy’s nuclear-powered Nautilus became the first submarine to cross the North Pole underwater.
