Lyrics

You are a radio star
You are a radio star
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 VTR
(Oh-a, oh-a)
(Oh-a, oh-a)
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
I heard you on the wireless back in '52
Lying awake, intently tuning in on you
If I was young, it didn't stop you coming through (Oh-a, oh-a)
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-a)
I met your children
(Oh-a, oh-a)
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 (You are a radio star)
We hear the playback and it seems so long ago
And you remember the jingles used to go (You are a radio star)
Oh-a, oh-a
You were the first one
Oh-a, oh-a
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
(Oh-a, oh-a)
(Oh-a, oh-a)
You are a radio star (Oh-a, oh-a)
You are a radio star (Oh-a, oh-a)
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 VTR
You are a radio star
You are a radio star
You are a radio star (Oh-a, oh-a)
You are a radio star (Oh-a, oh-a)
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 VTR
