Lyrics:

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 your children
Oh-Oh
What did you tell them?

Video killed the Radio star
Video killed the Radio star

'Cause in my mind and in my car
We can't rewind we've gone too far
Woah!
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh

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 one
Oh-Oh
You were the last one

Video killed the Radio star
Video killed the Radio star

'Cause In my mind and in my car
We can't rewind, we've gone too far
Too far!

Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Oh-oh-oh-oh-oh
Alright!

Video killed the Radio star
Video killed the Radio star

'Cause in 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 the radio staaaaar
You are the radio staaaaar

Video killed the Radio star
Video killed the Radio star
Video killed the Radio star
Video killed the Radio star
Video killed the Radio star
Video killed the Radio star
Video killed the Radio star
Video killed that Radio star,
Yes it did
