I heard you on my wireless back in '52
Lying awake intent on tuning in on you
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through
Oh oh
They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine on new technology
And now I understand the supernova scene
Oh oh
I met the children
Oh oh
What did you tell them
Video k**ed the radio star
Video k**ed the radio star
In my mind and in my car
We can't rewind we've gone too far
And now we meet in an abandoned studio
You hear the playback and it seems so long ago
And you remember the jingles used to go
Oh oh
You were the first one
Oh oh
You were the last one
Video k**ed the radio star
Video k**ed the radio star
In my mind and in my car
We can't rewind we've gone too far
Too far!
Alright
Video k**ed the radio star
Video k**ed the radio star
It's my mind and in my car
We can't rewind we've gone too far
Pictures came and broke your heart
So put all the blame on this VCR
You are radio star
You are radio star
Video k**ed the radio star
Video k**ed the radio star
Video k**ed the radio star
Video k**ed the radio star
Video k**ed the radio star
Video k**ed the radio star
Video k**ed the radio star
Yes video k**ed that radio star, yes it did
