I heard you
on my wireless
back in Fifty Two
Lying awake
intent in 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 Super Nova 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
Oh-a-aho oh
Oh-a-aho 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 was in my mind
and in my car
we can't rewind
we've gone too far
too far
Oh-a-aho oh
Oh-a-aho oh
alright
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
It was 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....
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 that
radio star
yes it did
