Video killed the radio star – The Buggles

I heard you on the wireless back in fifty two
Lying awake intently tuning in on you
If I was young it didnt stop you coming through
Oh-a-oh

They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine on new technology
And now I understand the problems you can see
Oh-a-oh , I met your children
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-a-a-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

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 cant rewind weve gone to far
Oh-a-aho-oh
Oh-a-aho-oh

(kybd)

Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star

In my mind and in my car

We cant rewind weve gone to 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 (repeat to fade)
