Just like how video killed the radio star

It was known we wouldn't go far.

But some glimmer of love

Just wasnt enough.

I thought you would come to

I was wrong, why'd I even love you?

Oh right, you were kind and nice

And I didn't need to pay a price

Just like Syd Barrett 

I went crazy like a ferret.

We were dancing in the moonlight

Sadly, it ended in a bad fight.

I'm gonna be high as kite by the time I'm done.

Why'd we have so much fun?

Watch out boy she'll chew you up

I was as dumb as a little pup.

We was told to 

Dont fear the reaper.

But I fear her coming back

As I would fear god.

Oh, I sound like a poor old sod.

Now that you have heard my story

Say man give me something to lose.

When they as where I'm at tell em

I got the abandonment blues.
