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
We are the champions, my friend
And we'll keep on fighting until the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
Because 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
That I never lose
We are the champions, my friend
And we'll keep on fighting until the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
Because we are the champions
Of the world
