Verse-1

I’ve paid my dues, time after time;

I’ve done my sentence, but committed no crime

And bad mistakes, I’ve made a few.

I’ve had myself and sand kicked in my face,

But I’ve come through

CHORUS

We are the champions, my friend

And we’ll keep on fighting to the end.

We are the champions (x2)

No time for losers ‘cos

We are the champions of the world.

Verse-2

I’ve taken my bows and my curtain call

You’ve brought me fame and everything that goes with it; I thank you all,

But it’s been no bed of roses, no pleasure cruise.

I consider it a challenge

Before the whole human race -

And I ain't gonna lose.

(Repeat Chorus x3)
