[Verse 1]
[..]Symphony
Rewritten by machine on new technology
And now I understand the problems you could see

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

[Chorus]
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

[Pre-Chorus]
Oh-oh
You were the first one
Oh-oh
You were the last one
[Chorus]
Video killed the radio star
Video killed 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

[Bridge]
Let's go
If video killed the radio star
And Internet killed the video star
Who's gonna kill the Internet star?
Social media

[Chorus]
Video killed the radio star
Video killed 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 all the blame on VCR

[Post-Chorus]
You are a radio star
You are a radio star
[Outro]
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio
The radio star
