Internet Killed the Video Star

The Broad Band

Verse 1

I heard about Mosaic back in '92
On IRC the talk was focusing on you
Big business idiots, they never had a clue (oh oh)
With AOL came Compuserve and Prodigy
Promising Video Interactivity
And we could download all our porno for a fee (oh oh)
Gates didn't like it
He didn't own it

Chorus

Internet killed the video star
Internet killed the video star

Verse 2

Real time streaming broke your heart (oh oh oh oh)
And now we watch real time 3d rending show
MP3 Audio just seemed so long ago
Hell, I remember watching MTV in mono (oh oh)
Came from the cold war (oh oh)
Now it's one global store

Chorus

Internet killed the video star
Internet killed the video star

Verse 3

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

Outro + Chorus

Ohhhh (video star)
Ohhhh (video star)

Internet killed the video star
Internet killed the video star
Internet killed the video star
Internet killed the video star
