SO LONG, IT’S BEEN GOOD TO KNOW YOU

SO LONG, ITS BEEN GOOD TO KNOW YOU

I've sung this song, but I'll sing it again,

Of the members I've met and the comments I've seen.

Of some of the troubles that bothered my mind

And a lot of good people that I've left behind, singing:

So long, it's been good to know you;
So long, it's been good to know you;
So long, it's been good to know you.
What a long time since I've used the Front Page,
And I've gotta be driftin' along.

It used to be pleasant, it used to be fun.

Ad hominem took over and blocked out the sun;

Then baiting and trolling took up all the space.

So off to the groups where I found my best place, singing:

So long, it's been good to know you;
So long, it's been good to know you;
So long, it's been good to know you.
What a long time since I've used the Front Page,
And I've gotta be driftin' along.

Just ramble on down to the groups you can use,

Its great to be there; its where you can schmooze,

For there you will find many friends who you know;

If youre of good heart then thats where to go, singing:

So long, it's been good to know you;
So long, it's been good to know you;
So long, it's been good to know you.
What a long time since I've used the Front Page,
And I've gotta be driftin' along.
