Lyrics Champion - Cayucas

Champion

Drag your finger down the long list
Pass the rosenthals and blankets
You hear the footsteps coming down the hall
Bronze and silver medals hung on the wall
And the punches thrown in the air
And some punches, if nobody’s standing there
And the latter finally comes
Unsealed envelopes
Cause you won
But you lost
A thousand times before
It wasn’t over
And though sometimes
It seems there is no explanation
It’s just because
You could be a champion
Left hook, uppercut
If only for the night
Feel your feet lift up off of the pavement
Above the two story houses, you’ve taken flight
Written words of Elizabeth plan
6 o’clock
It’s half past
Live like Wallace and his women
She had champagne for us
As dreamers do
I did believe
There will be consequences for my foolish
Put the tape in the VCR
Go to channel 3
You could be a champion
Left hook, uppercut
If only for the night
Feel your feet lift up off of the pavement
Above the two story house, you’ve taken flight
Was it William Duke of Normandy
Fought his last fight, before nightfall
Advancing armies from the left and right
They lit the cannons, but didn’t fire
They didn’t fire
But you lost, a thousand times before
It wasn’t over
Outro:
I know sometimes, it seems there is no explanation
It’s just because
Champion
