I heard you on the wireless back in ´52
I´d lie awake intent in 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, a new technology
And now I understand the problems you can see

Oh, oh
I saw your children
Oh, oh
What did you tell them?

Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car
Oh, uh-oh, oh, oh

So now we sit in an abandoned studio
I hear the playback and it seems so long ago
Do you remember the jingles used to go

Oh, oh
You were the first one
Oh, oh
You´ll be 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, uh-uh, oh, oh
Oh, uh-uh, oh, 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
We put the blame on VCR

Oh, ahhh radio star
Oh, ahhh radio star

Video killed the radio star
