I heard you on my wireless back in '52

Lying awake, intent on tuning in on you

If I was young, it didn't stop you coming through

Oh-Oh



They took the credit for your second symphony

Rewritten by machine on new technology

And now I understand the supernova scene

Oh-Oh



I met your children

Oh-Oh

What did you tell them?



Video killed the Radio star

Video killed the Radio star



'Cause in my mind and in my car

We can't rewind we've gone too far

Woah!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-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-Oh

You were the first one

Oh-Oh

You were the last one



Video killed the Radio star

Video killed the Radio star



'Cause In my mind and in my car

We can't rewind, we've gone too far

Too far!



Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

Alright!



Video killed the Radio star

Video killed the Radio star



'Cause 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 the radio staaaaar

You are the radio staaaaar



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
