Video Killed The Radio Star lyrics

[Verse 1]
I heard you on the wireless back in '52
Lying awake, intent at tuning in on you
If I was young it didn't stop you coming through
Oh-a oh
They took the credit for your second symphony
Rewritten by machine on new technology
And now I understand the problems you can see

[Pre-Chorus 1]
Oh-a oh
I met your children
Oh-a-a oh, oh
What did you tell them?

[Chorus 1]
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Pictures came and broke your heart
Oh-a-a-a oh

[Verse 2]
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
