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 the children   Oh oh   What did you tell them      Video killed the radio star (x2)   In my mind and in my car   We can't rewind we've gone too far      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 on   Oh oh   You were the last one      Video killed the radio star (x2)   In my mind and in my car   We can't rewind we've gone too far   Too far!   Alright      Video killed the radio star (x2)   It's 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 radio star (x2)   Video killed the radio star (x7)   Yes video killed that radio star, yes it did
