"Roses Are Free" comes off Chocolate and Cheese, the fourth studio album Ween released through Elektra in September 1994, and the first they cut in a professional studio after the four-track home tapes behind The Pod and Pure Guava. Credited to Ween as a whole, it has Gene Ween singing lead and Dean Ween on electric guitar, with Andrew Weiss, back in the producer's chair after the band produced Pure Guava themselves, playing bass and handling the recording and the mix too.

The album around it hops from psychedelia to country to funk and beyond, and while it didn't sell much, it has come to be counted among Ween's signature records.
