I heard you on my wireless back in fifty two

Lying awake intently tuning in on you

If i were young it didn't stop you coming through



Oh-a oh



They took the credit for your second symphony

Rewritten by machine all 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

Maybe 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

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 all the blame on vtr



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



You are the radio star

Video killed the radio star

Video killed the radio star



You are the radio star

Video killed the radio star

Video killed the radio star
