Sounds of the Seventies [1989] (compilation series) - Video k**ed The Radio Star lyrics

I heard you on the wireless back in '52 Lying awake, intent and 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 and new technology And now I understand the problems you can see Oh-a oh I met your children Oh-a oh What did you tell them? Video k**ed the radio star Video k**ed the radio star Pictures came and broke your heart Oh-a-a-a 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-a-oh You were the first one Oh-a-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 Oh-a-a-a oh Oh-a-a-a oh 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 Pictures came and broke your heart Put the blame on VCR (You are a radio star) (You are a 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 (You are a radio star) Video k**ed the radio star Video k**ed the radio star (You are a radio star) Video k**ed the radio star (You are a radio star)
