They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine and new technology
And now I understand the problems you can see

Oh eh-oh
I met your children
Oh eh-oh
What did you tell them?

Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Pictures came and broke your heart
Oh eh-eh-eh-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 eh-oh
You were the first one
Oh eh-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 to far

Oh eh-eh-eh-oh
Oh eh-eh-eh-oh
