So?  One day putting videogame music on radio stations is going to kill us.

(Everyone gathers and the music for Video Killed the Radio Star starts)


One day on the month November Twenty Fifty Two
                  sitting awake playing Nintendo in my lair
                  I am not young and there is nothing else to do


Oh-a oh


They took the credit for our many achievements
                  Our music is on machines and radiology,
                  and now I hope that you can see the problems that I see.


Oh-a oh


Go see your children


Oh-a oh


Here's what to tell them.


Chorus: Radio killed the videogame star. 
             Radio killed the videogame star. 


Music came and took your job.


Oh-a-a-a oh 


And now we live in an abandoned room downstairs. 
                  We hear the playback and it hurts our ears like theirs. 
                  And you remember the games used to go. 


Oh-a oh 


You were the first ones.


Oh-a oh


Now you're the last ones.


Chorus: Radio killed the videogame star. 
             Radio killed the videogame star. 


In my mind I have no plan, 
                  we can't play the games that we have


Oh-a-aho oh, 


Oh-a-aho oh 

(During the solo  does a wierd dance and and  and  cringe in fear)


Chorus: Radio killed the videogame star. 
             Radio killed the videogame star. 


In my mind I have no plan, 
                  we can't play the games that we have

                  Music came and took your job. 
                  just go blame WTMK


(During the short break everyone joins up with the chorus for the big finale)


Chrous: Radio killed the videogame star. 
             Radio killed the videogame star. 

             Radio killed the videogame star. 
             Radio killed the videogame star. 

             Radio killed the videogame star. 
             Radio killed the videogame star. 

             Radio killed the videogame star. 
             Radio killed the videogame star. 

             Radio killed the videogame star. 
             Radio killed the videogame star. 

             Radio killed the videogame star. 


(the song fades away and everyone returns to normal)


See what I mean.


Oh I see.


YOU DO?!


I see that your nuts!
