[Moose:]
Now and then I think of how we started
We gave birth to you, raised you from the first issue
Told ourselves that you were right for the readers
There were sleepless nights, paper jams and tears
But that was love and it's an ache we still remember
You can get addicted to a certain kind of job
Especially when we get compliments, fan mail and sale figures,
But when we found that you could no longer make sense
Thanks to bosses who have no idea of what they want,
It’s tough but we’ll admit that we’re glad it is over
But those pricks didn’t have to cut us off,
Act as if the mag never happened and that we were nothing
And we don't even need your “help”
You treat us like garbage and that feels so rough
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your suck-ups turn on us and voice out nothing,
I guess that we don't need that though
Now you're just some magazine that we used to know
Now you're just some magazine that we used to know
Now you're just some magazine that we used to know
[IP Freely:]
Now and then I think of all the times you screwed us over
Part of us believing it was always something that we’d done
But we don't wanna live that way
Reading into every word you say
You said that you could let us go
So fuck it, we’re out and the magazine is just something that we used to know
[Moose:]
Those scumbags didn't have to cut us off
Act like the compliments never happened and that we were nothing
And we don’t even need this shit
You treat us like we’re nothing and expect us to stay
No you didn't have to stoop so low
Have your minions walk in for that weekly blow
Too bad but we’re not fake and won’t stoop that low
Now you're just some magazine that we used to know
[x2]
Some magazine
(We used to know)
Some magazine
(Now you're just some magazine that we used to know)
(We used to know)
(That we used to know)
(We used to know)
Some magazine
