Buggles - Video Killed The Radio Start Lyrics

I heard you on the wireless back in Fifty Two
Lying awake intent on 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 and 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

oho, you were the 1st born
Oho, you were the last born

Video killed the radio star
Video Killed the radio star
in my mind and in my car
we cant rewind we've gone to far
oh - a - oh oh oh
oh - a - oh oh oh

~repeat~

aaaaaaaaaaaaaaa! radio star!

oh-a-oh
oh-a-oh
oh-a-oh
