Lyrics for Song: Video Killed The Radio Star
Lyrics for Album: Other Songs - Offspring
I heard you on my wireless back in '52
Lying awake intent on 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 supernova scene
Oh-a-oh
I met your children
Oh-a-oh
What did you tell them?
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
Wow
And now we meet in an abandoned studio
You 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 killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Cause in my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far
To far!
Alright
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Cause in my mind and in my car, we can't rewind we've gone too far
Pictures came and broke your heart
So put all the blame on VCR
You are the radio star
You are the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed the radio star
Video killed that radio star yes it did

Video Killed The Radio Star

Originally recorded by the Sex Pistols in 1976, the song was famously re-recorded by the band for their debut album, 'Smash,' serving as a pivotal moment in their early career. The recording captures the raw, rebellious spirit characteristic of the genre while showcasing the band's signature vocal style and guitar work. Its enduring popularity highlights the song's ability to transcend its origins and become a staple in punk and alternative rock repertoires worldwide. |
