Lyrics Heavyweight Champion of the World

Now that she's older

As the embers of romance

Fade to mortgages and leccy bills

Been comfortable and that

Nobody told her

That she'd ever reach the stage

Where her husband bored her

Or she lied about her age

He's compromising

At least he's got a job for life

Get born, get schooled

Get job, get car

Pay tax and find a wife

And on that note

The end can't come too soon

If you're not living on the edge

You take up too much room

I could've been a contender

I could've been a someone

Caught up in the rat race

I'm feeling like a no-one

Could've been me in the papers

The money and the girls

I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world

At school

He used to dream about being Bruce Lee

But the need for chops

In the Manor Top

Ain't all that great you see

And so he gave up

On his black belt and first dan

As near as he got to China

Was a week in

Camber Sands

I could've been a contender

I could've been a someone

Caught up in the rat race

I'm feeling like a no-one

Could've been me in the papers

The money and the girls

I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world

I could've been a contender

I could've been a someone

Caught up in the rat race

I'm feeling like a no-one

Could've been me in the papers

The money and the girls

I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world

It's boring, it's boring

It might put you to sleep

It's the same old routine

Repeating week after week

And you work harder

Work harder

You're told that you must

And you must earn a living

And you must earn a crust

And be like everybody else

Be like everybody else

Just be like everybody else

Be like everybody else

Just be like everybody else

Be like everybody else

Just be like everybody else

Be like everybody else

Just be like everybody else

Be like everybody else

Just be like everybody else

Be like everybody else

Just be like everybody else

Be like everybody else

Just be like everybody else

I could've been a contender

I could've been a someone

Caught up in the rat race

I'm feeling like a no-one

Could've been me in the papers

The money and the girls

I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world

I could've been a contender

I could've been a someone

Caught up in the rat race

I'm feeling like a no-one

Could've been me in the papers

The money and the girls

I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
