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
They took the credit for your second symphony We ridden my machine on new technology
And now I understand the problems you could see
I met your children
What did you tell them?
Video killed the radio star Video killed the radio star
The cheers came and broke your heart
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
You were the first one
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
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
The cheers came and broke your heart What's the blame? I'm DTR
You are the radio star You are the radio star
Video killed the radio star Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star Video killed the radio star
