Well I heard there was a secret world
That editor changed, and it pleased Jimbo
But you don't really care for knowledge, do ya?
Well it goes like this
The admin, the 'crat
The barnstar and the vandal
The ruffled man writing an encyclopedia

Well your faith was strong but you needed proof
You saw her editing in the night
Her daring and the torchlight overthrew you
She took you to her secret lair
And she showed you namespaces and she starved up there
And from your mind she wrote an encyclopedia

Well baby I've been here before
I've seen this site and I've researched this topic
I used to work alone before I knew ya
I've seen your stand on SOPA
Existing is not an easy thing
It's a horrible and it's a broken process
But I love you Wikipedia

Well there was a time when you let me know
What's really going on behind the scenes
I remember when I first saw the Village Pump, do ya?
And remember when I first !voted in an AfD?
And the admin crew was deleting too
And every vandal we blocked was hallelujah

I've loved the whole experience
But all I've ever learned from here
Was how to leave somebody who'd outgrew ya
And it is a cry that you hear at night
It's me realising I was right
It's a cold and it's a broken encyclopedia
