Contender |
| A quiet moment before the champ goes down through the doors of his decision to |
| fight for one last round. |
| Though he’s beaten and he knows it, no way in hell he’s gonna throw it away |
| So on with the round and into the light of all the cameras and predictions, |
| news radio depictions of a fight he knew he’d never win |
| So for the record… |
| It’s just another day… |
| All things fade away… |
| He stood fast 'til the end and met his fate with a right hook to oblivion and |
| no one cried. |
| His opponent young and eager to accept the admiration of the crowd paid no |
| attention. |
| So down he goes surrounded by the faces that once proudly, only built him up. |
| Now he lies surrounded by the ones who do not care. |
| Signed, sealed, delivered… |
| He stood fast right until the very end, no commentary about the state of grace |
| he’s in. |
| The champion has lost, what will the paper say about a man whose proven only to |
| be a man. |
| So for the record… |
| It’s just another day… |
| All things fade away… |
| It’s just another day… |
| How will I fade away… |
