Stayed Gone is one of the two songs featured in the Hazbin Hotel episode "Radio Killed the Video Star", sung by Vox and Alastor.

Lyrics
Vox: That fucker is back! Valentino: Yeah, I thought he was gone for good too. Vox: It's been seven years!

Valentino: You still pissed he almost beat you that time? Vox: Uh, fuck you! Valentino: Just saying.

Vox: Things have changed a lot since he left town. Valentino: That's for sure. Vox: I got to send a message of who's really in charge of things now. (Valentino chuckles)

Vox: Welcome home I'm gonna make you wish That you'd stayed gone Say hello To a new status quo Everyone knows that there's a brand new dawn Turn the TV on!

Director: Camera, speeds. Rolling in 3, 2...

(Welcome to the show)

Vox: Top of the hour and we're discussing a certain has-been Who has been spotted cavorting around town (Welcome to the show) After a seven year absence Did anybody miss him? (Welcome to the show) Did anybody notice? More on tonight's program!

So, the Radio Demon is back in town Why's he hangin' around? What does that mean for your family?

Well handily, I've got good news He's a loser, a fossil And, I don't mean to sound hostile But the demon is a coward!

You can take that as gospel Pulling my viewers? Impossible! I'm visual, he's barely audible

Stop giving him the time of day Don't listen to a word he'd say I hope he had a nice vacay But he should've stayed away!

While he hid in radio We pivoted to video Now his medium is getting bloody rare!

Hell's been better since he split Where's he been? Who gives a shit!

Alastor: Salutations! Good to be back on the air Yes, I know it's been a while since someone with style treated Hell to a broadcast Sinners rejoice! (Vox: What a dated voice!) Instead of a clout-chasing mediocre video podcast (Vox: Come on!)

Is Vox insecure, pursuing allure? Flitting between this fad and that Is nothing working? (Vox: Ignore his chirping!)

Every day, he's got a new format (Vox: You're looking at the future! He's the shit that comes before that!)

Is Vox as strong as he purports? Or is it based on his support? He'd be powerless without the other Vees (Vox: Oh, please!)

And here's the sugar on the cream He asked me to join his team (Vox: Hold on!) I said no, and now he's pissy, that's the tea!

Vox: (glitches) You old-timey prick I'll show you suffering! (Alastor: Uh oh, the TV is buffering) I'll destroy yoo-o-u-u you little—! (Alastor: I'm afraid you've lost your signal)

Alastor: Let's begin... I'm gonna make you wish That I'd stay gone Tune on in

When I'm done Your status quo Will know its race is run Oh, this will be fun! (Alastor laughs)

Vox: Fuck!
