All of My Idols Are Dead

It was 1984

And video just killed my radio

Mr. MTV bludgeoned mystery

We shoulda seen this coming

So I'm taking all my posters down

'cause I can't keep track

Of all these faces

How do we set the bar?

When everyone's a star?

This information overload is poison

And all of my idols are dead

My idols are dead

Digital umbilical

The bottlenecking ones and zeroes

Are drowning out the songs of heroes

And if I text you this song

Would you sing along?

(say you'd sing along)

I'm tearing all my posters down

'cause I can't keep track

Of all these changes

How do we set the bar?

When everyone's a star?

This information overload is poison

And all of my idols are dead

My idols are dead

Do do do, do do, do do

Doobie doobie do

Do do, doobie do do do

Doobie do do do

Doobie doobie do do do

Doobie do do do

Doobie do do do

Doobie doobie do

If I text you this song

Would you sing along?

(say you'd sing along)

Tearing all my posters down

'cause I can't keep track

Of all these choices

How do we set the bar?

When everyone's a star?

This information overload is poison

And all of my idols are dead

1984

2.0 just killed my video
