Video Killed the Radio Star

Video Killed the Radio Star - Various Artists

I heard you on the wireless

Back in fifty two

Lying awake intent

At 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

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

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

You were the first one

Oh-a oh

You were the first 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

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 to 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
