Champ - Marc Almond/The Willing Sinners[00:00:00]

Written by：Marc Almond[00:00:01]

Way back then I was a champion[00:00:06]

The fighter in the ring[00:00:11]

And all the crowds would cheer[00:00:15]

My praises they would sing[00:00:17]

Now I am a forgotten man[00:00:22]

A hobo out alone[00:00:26]

No champ to push me on[00:00:29]

Nothing no one to call my own[00:00:32]

I was a dark eyed boy[00:00:56]

Stars in his eyes[00:00:58]

Promises made flesh and blood[00:01:01]

Grip of arm[00:01:05]

And granite charm[00:01:06]

Oh times were golden[00:01:08]

Times were good[00:01:10]

Sinew young[00:01:12]

And skin of ore[00:01:13]

Molten and streaming with dreams[00:01:15]

Now I nod away the days[00:01:19]

Barely remembering names it seems[00:01:22]

Oh I would smile[00:01:58]

To hear the bell[00:02:00]

Ringing out my glory[00:02:02]

Like a bull I paced the ring[00:02:06]

My bloody territory[00:02:09]

I held on high[00:02:13]

The fist in glove[00:02:14]

The symbol of my power[00:02:16]

Now I wait[00:02:20]

A punch drunk fool[00:02:21]

To fade away forever[00:02:24]

Broken noses[00:03:00]

Broken jaws[00:03:02]

And many broken hearts[00:03:03]

An idol[00:03:07]

And a hero[00:03:08]

Till my courage fell apart[00:03:10]

And now my brain a ringing[00:03:13]

With the final[00:03:16]

Bell and count[00:03:17]

They held my hand up limply[00:03:20]

Told the world[00:03:22]

That I was out[00:03:24]

I didn't mind the scars[00:03:26]

The blood[00:03:29]

The crushing of the hand[00:03:30]

But to lose a nation's love[00:03:33]

Respect is something I'll never[00:03:35]

Understand[00:03:39]

Is something I'll never[00:03:43]

Understand[00:03:46]

It's[00:03:49]

Something I'll never[00:03:50]

Understand[00:03:53]

I'm gonna bury my head[00:04:01]

And cry[00:04:06]
