Boxing |
| Howard, the strangest things |
| Have happened lately when I |
| Take a good swing |
| And all my dreams |
| They pivot and slip |
| I drop my fists |
| And they’re back, laughing |
| Howard, my intentions |
| Become not to lose what I’ve won |
| Ambition has given way |
| To desperation and I |
| I’ve lost the fight from my eyes |
| Boxing’s been good to me, Howard |
| Now I’m told |
| «You're growing old.» |
| The whole time we knew |
| A couple of years I’d be through |
| Has boxing been good to you? |
| Howard, now I confess |
| I’m scared and lonely and tired |
| Everyone says I’m made of clay |
| That I’ve had my day |
| That I’m not cut out for this |
| I just know what to say |
| And I say |
| Boxing’s been good to me, Howard |
| Now I’m told |
| «You're growing old.» |
| The whole time we knew |
| A couple of years I’d be through |
| Has boxing been good to you? |
| Well, sometimes I punch myself |
| Hard as I can |
| Yelling, «nobody cares!» |
| Hoping someone will tell me how wrong I am |
| Howard |
| Boxing’s been good to me, Howard |
| Now I’m told |
| «You're growing old.» |
| The whole time we knew |
| A couple of years I’d be through |
| Has boxing been good |
| Has boxing been good |
| Has boxing been good? |
