Quite an easy one, taken straight from a book I read recently:
It can be stolen, but never bought.
It can be given, but never taken.
It can be stepped on, but it can't walk.
It can fly, but doesn't have wings.
It can sing, but it has no voice.
It can be broken, but still work.
It can be left even while it follows.
It can be easily commanded, but it can never be demanded.
