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

What did you tell them?
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star

Pictures came and broke your heart
Oh-a oh

And now we meet in an abandoned studio
We hear the playback and it seems so long ago
And you remember the jingels 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-OH OH,
OH-a-OH OH

Video killed the radio star
Video killed the ardio star

In my mind and in my car, we can´t rewind we´ve gone too far
Pictures came and broke your heart, look I´ll play my 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
Video killed the radio star

Repeat:
Video killed the radio star You are a radio star
