Internet Killed The Video Star Lyrics

Broad Band Internet Killed The Video Star

I heard about Mosaic back in '92
On IRC the talk was focusing on you
Big buisness idiots, they never had a clue

Oh-a-oh

With AOL came Compuserve and Prodigy
promising video interactivity
and we can download all our porno...for a fee

Oh-a-oh

Gates didn't like it

Oh-a-oh

He didn't own it

Internet killed the video star
Internet killed the video star

RealTime streaming broke your heart

Oh-a-oh-oh-oh

And now we watch RealTime, 3-D rendering show
MP3 audio just seemed so long ago
Hell, I remember watching MTV in Mono!

Oh-a-Oh

Came from the cold war

Oh-a-oh

Now it's one global store

Internet killed the video star
Internet killed the video star

Plug my mind into the bar
Drink martinis with a former teen pop star
Record Ricky Martin on my DVD-R
Forget all about who you really are...

(you are a video star)
(you are a video star)

Internet killed the video star
Internet killed the video star
Internet killed the video star
(you are a video star)
Internet killed the video star
