The Buggles - Video Killed The Radio Star lyrics

I heard you on the wireless back in Fifty Two

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 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 (2x).

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 wore the first one

Oh-a oh

You wore the last one.

Video killed the radio star (2x)

In my mind and in my car

We can't rewind we've gone to far

Oh-a-aho oh (2x).

Video killed the radio star (2x).

In my mind and in my car

We can't rewind, we've gone to far

Pictures came and broke your heart

Put the blame on VCR.

You are a radio star (2x)

Video killed the radio star (4x).

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