Bugsy Malone - So You Wanna Be A Boxer lyrics

So you wanna be a boxer In the golden ring Can you punch like a south-bound freight train Tell me just one thing Can you move in a whirl like a humming bird's wing If you need to you weave Can you fake, and deceive when you need to? Well, you might as well quit If you haven't got it So you wanna be a boxer Can you pa** the test? I can tell you've got it in you I've trained the best When you work and you sweat And you bet that you train to a buzz-saw Then you near lose your mind When you find that your boy has a gla** jaw So you might as well quit If you haven't got it. Putting him in the ring, Joe Look at what you found We can use the fun, Joe Pushing him around Well show him the ropes And destroy his hopes Put him in the ring, Joe Give the guy a chance Let him feel the sting, Joe We can make him dance We'll pulp him to bits Then he'll call it quits for sure, Joe So you wanna be a boxer Wanna be the champ There's a golden boy inside you Not a punched-out tramp If you listen and you learn There's an honour you can earn and defend here When you do see the crown You're a king not a clown A contender But you might as well quit If you haven't got it Put him in the ring, Joe Something new to punch Let me have a swing, Joe Then we'll go to lunch We'll make it quite swift Then he'll get the drift Put him in the ring, Joe Chicken a la carte Let me have a wing, Joe Tearing him apart That chicken will crow Let me have him Joe
