Joyce Manor - Video k**ed the Radio Star lyrics

I heard you on the wireless back in '52 Lying awake intent on tuning in on you If I was young it didn't stop you coming through They took the credit for your second symphony Rewritten by machines on new technology And now I understand the problems you can see I met your children What did you tell them? Video k**ed the radio star And now we meet in an abandoned studio We hear the playback and it seemed so long ago Do you remember the jingles used to go You were the first one You were the last one Video k**ed the radio star In my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far Pictures came and broke your heart, put the blame on VCR (Video k**ed the radio star)
