lyrics

Lick your finger, turn the page
all the words are worth the wait
A month of work is all it takes
to print and make

A dying breed, a dying job
geeks and dweebs and freaks and slobs
those who read, they like to flip and turn and talk

On and on
on and on
on and on
Now you've gone on far too long

You're the magazine lady
Almost won
Almost won

You're the magazine lady
Almost won
Almost won

Years ago you were the best
much more vibrant the rest
Now your age is showing more than you can bear

all the wrinkles on your eyes
and still you're never quite as wise
than the colors that you still pretend to wear

on and on
on and on
on and on
now you've gone on far too long

You're the magazine lady
Almost won
Almost won

You're the magazine lady
Almost won
Almost won

You're the magazine lady
Almost won
now you're gone

You're the magazine lady
Almost won
now you're gone
