I heard you on the wireless back in fifty-two
Lying awake intently tuning in on you
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through
Oha, oha
They took the credit for your second symphony
Re-written by machine on new technology
And now I understand the problems you can see
Oha, oha
I met your children
Oha, oha
What did you tell them?
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Pictures came and broke your heart
Oh, o-o-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
Oha, oha
Your were the first one
Oha, oha
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, o-o-oh
Oh, o-o-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 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
