Buggles - Video Killed the Radio Star

I heard you on the wireless back in '52
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 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 can't rewind we've gone too far
(Oh-a-a-a-oh)
(Oh-a-a-a-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
Video killed the radio star

(You are a radio star) video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
(You are a radio star) video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
(You are a radio star) video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star

(Oh-a-oh, oh-a-oh)
(Oh-a-oh, oh-a-oh)
(Oh-a-oh, oh-a-oh)
(Oh-a-oh)
