Lyrics

They took your credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machines 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
Oh-a, oh

You were the first one
Oh-a, oh
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-aho, oh
Oh-a-aho, oh...
