Maggie’s Content Farm


I ain’t gonna work on Maggie’s content farm no more

No, I ain’t gonna work on Maggie’s content farm no more

Well, I wake up in the morning

Fold my hands and pray for posts

I got a head full of news items

That are drivin’ me insane

It’s a shame the way she makes me SEO.

I ain’t gonna work on Maggie’s content farm no more.

I ain’t gonna work for Maggie’s pageviews no more

No, I ain’t gonna work for Maggie’s pageviews no more

Well, this blog’s worth a nickel This blog’s worth a dime

They ask you with a grin If you’re havin’ a good time

Then they fine you every time you don’t get more

I ain’t gonna work for Maggie’s pageviews no more

I ain’t gonna work for Maggie’s PageRank no more

No, I ain’t gonna work for Maggie’s PageRank no more

Well, she puts her Adsense Out in your face just for kicks

Her bedroom window It is made out of links

The spam brigade stands around her door

I ain’t gonna work for Maggie’s PageRank no more

I ain’t gonna work for Maggie’s retweets more

No, I ain’t gonna work for Maggie’s retweets no more

Well, I @ replied the bloggers On Twitter and Facebook and Quora

Everybody says I should try to target Scoble

But when I hit Twitter all I get is four oh four

I ain’t gonna work for Maggie’s retweets no more

I ain’t gonna work on Maggie’s content farm no more

I ain’t gonna work on Maggie’s content farm no more

Well, I try my best To write like I am

But everybody wants you To write like them

They say sing while you slave and I just get bored

I ain’t gonna work on Maggie’s content farm no more.
