Lyrics

[Verse 1]
Tomorrow's treasure buried deep in spreadsheet maze
Revenue projections paint the future's hazy face
Growth rates whisper secrets through historic trends
While market forces twist and bend where forecasts end

[Chorus]
Free Cash Flows, watch them grow
Revenue minus costs below
Working capital's ebb and flow
DCF foundation, now you know
Projects future, dollar streams
Building wealth through number schemes

[Verse 2]
Operating leverage amplifies the climbing sales
Fixed costs spread thinner as the volume never fails
Variable expenses dance in perfect revenue sync
While depreciation echoes what accountants think

[Chorus]
Free Cash Flows, watch them grow
Revenue minus costs below
Working capital's ebb and flow
DCF foundation, now you know
Projects future, dollar streams
Building wealth through number schemes

[Bridge]
Inventory cycles, receivables that spin
Payables extending grace when cash gets thin
Terminal value beckoning from distant years
While discount rates reflect our deepest fears

[Verse 3]
EBITDA stripped of non-cash phantom costs
Tax shields from debt where interest gets tossed
Capital expenditures devour precious cash
While analysts debate each projected dash

[Final Chorus]
Free Cash Flows, watch them grow
Revenue minus costs below
Working capital's ebb and flow
DCF foundation, now you know
Projects future, dollar streams
Valuation built on solid dreams

[Outro]
From assumptions bold to terminal yield
The discounted truth will be revealed
