We are the champions

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 my share of sand
kicked in my face,
but I've come through!

Refrein:

We are the champions, my friend,
and we'll keep on fighting 'till the end.
We are the champions,
we are the champions,
no time for losers,
'cause we are the champions of the world!

I've taken my bows and my curtain calls,
you brought me fame and fortune
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.
