I heard you on my wireless back in '52
Lyin' awake intent on tuning in on you
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through
Oh a oh
They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine on new technology
And now I understand the supernova scene
Oh a oh
I met your children
Oh a oh
What did you tell them
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
Whoa
Oh aoh oh oh oh
Oh aoh oh oh oh
And now we meet in an abandoned studio
You hear the playback and it seems so long ago
And you remember the jingles used to go
Oh a oh
You were the first one
Oh a oh
You were the last one
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
It's in my mind and in my car
We can't rewind, we've gone too far
Too far
Oh aoh oh oh oh
Oh aoh oh oh oh
Alright
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
It's in my mind and in my car
We can't rewind, we've gone too far
Pictures came and broke your heart
So put all the blame on VCR
You are the radio star You are 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 that radio star, yes, it did
