Lyrics

3. Video Killed the Radio Star The Buggles 1980/ Accapela Barbershop style

Da da da da da da da da

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 me coming through

Oh – oh oh (du du du du du du du du)

They took the credit for your second symphony

Rewritten by machines on new technology

And now I understand the problems you can see

Oh oh oh

I met your children oh oh oh.

What did you tell them

Video killed the radio star x2

(Ah)Pictures came and broke your heart

(Ah)Oh uh uh uh uh uh

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 O-O-O

You were the first one oh oh oh

What did you tell them

Video killed the radio star x2

(Oh o oh)In my mind and in my car

(Oh o oh)We can’t rewind we’ve gone too far

(dum)Oh oh oh oh oh oh oh,oh oh oh oh oh oh oh

(dum)La la la la la la la la

(Ah) dum, dum, dum, la la la, la la la

Video killed the radio star x2

(Ah) In my mind and in my car

(Ah) We can’t rewind we’ve gone too far

(Ah) Pictures came and broke your heart

(Ah) Put the blame on VCR

Ah/ You are a radio star/Ba da ba da ba/Du..x2

Video killed the radio star x4 (You)

(Are a radio star)Video killed the radio starx4 (You) ..are a radio star x2
