Video killed the radio star

I heard you on the wireless back in '52
Lyin' awake intent at tuning in on you
If I were young it didn't stop you coming through
Heey, na-oh

They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine on new technology
And now I understand the problems you can see
Hey, I met your children
What did you tell them?

Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Pictures came and they broke your heart
Shh!

You are a radio sta-a-a-a-ar (you are, radio star)
You are a radio (you are)
Sta-a-a-a-ar
Sta-a-a-a-ar
Sta-a-a-a-aaar

Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
In my mind and in my car
V-v-v-video k-kiled the radio star
