Lyrics:

heard you on my wireless back in fiftey-two Lying awake intently tuning in on you If I were young it didn't stop you coming through They took the credit for your second symphony Rewritten by machine on new technology And now I understand the problems you can see I met your children What did you tell them? Video killed the radio star Video killed the radio star Pictures came and broke your heart And now we meet in an abandoned studio We hear the playback and it seemes so long ago And you remember the jingles used to go OH ah oh You were the first one Maybe the last Video killed the radio star
