Video Killed the Radio Star

I heard you on my wireless back in '52
Lying awake, intent at tuning in on you
If I was young, it didn't stop you coming through
Oh-a, oh-a
They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine and new technology
And now I understand the problems you can see
Oh-a oh-a
I met your children
Oh-a oh-a
What did you tell them?
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Pictures came and broke your heart
Oh-a-a-a oh
And now we meet in an abandoned studio
We hear the playback and it seems so long ago
And you remember the jingles used to go
Oh-a oh-a
You were the first one
Oh-a oh-a
You are the last one
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car
We can't rewind, we've gone too far
Oh-a-aho oh
Oh-a-aho oh
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car
We can't rewind, we've gone too far
Pictures came and broke your heart
Put the blame on VCR
You are a radio star
You are a radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star

rawdogged

To be entirely fucked - up or over - wronged, lied to, cheated on, beat up, scraped up by your own wrong doing or by others. : To be in a situation that turns against you, usually by some fate of karmic turnabout.

NOTE: Not to be confused with "raw dog" as this term implies nothing sexual. But does alude and reference the potential consequences of "raw dogging".
This weekend I got fired, fell off my bike and scrapped my other knee, broke the bike and then got attacked by fleas: its safe to say I've been rawdogged good and hard.
