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 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 too 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 too far
|
Pictures came and broke your heart , put the blame on VTR
|
|
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
|
repeat
|
Video killed the radio star (You are a radio star)
|
