Video Killed The Radio Star

I heard you on the wireless back in Fifty Two
Lying awake intent at tuning it 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 and new technology
and now I understand the problems you can see.
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.

Pictures came and broke your heart.

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.

You were the first one.
Oh-a oh
You were 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 to far.

My radio star.

You are my radio star
You are my radio star
You are my radio star (video killed the radio star)
You are my radio star (video killed the radio star)
You are my radio star (video killed the radio star)
Video killed the radio star.

Pictures came and broke your heart. Put the blame on VCR
In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone to far.
