Boxing Champ + Learnt My Lesson Well
"Boxing Champ"
We went to the youth club and we looked out of place.
I didn't know where to look
So I, looked at your face.
But you were a boxing champ, and I was a weakling.
You didn't give me a chance,
You gave me a beating.
And I thank you very much that you did.
And as the time went by we stayed out of trouble,
Before I could realise my age had doubled.
The man I became is a tragic bore,
And he's not a boxing champ anymore.
If there's one thing i've learnt it's to run away,
At least I enjoy what I do today.
And I thank you very much that I do.
"Learnt My Lesson Well"
I'm just waiting for
The man to come with all my things
And i'm just waiting for
Another man to take it all
And its not hard to tell
That I learnt my lesson well
And I'm just waiting for
The man to come and go away
What are you waiting for
Get up off your seat
It's just seven days
Feels like a week
What are you moaning for
You got all that you want
Your life could be worse
You could be a nurse
It seems so sensible
For us to keep the purse strings tight
And move the decimals
A couple of places to the right
And it's not hard to tell
That I learnt my lesson well
It seems most sensible
But not exactly what we'd like
What are you waiting for
Get up off your seat
It's just seven days
Feels like a week
What are you moaning for
You got all that you want
Our life could be worse
You know, we all could be cursed
I Can't help feel like this
So don't rearrange it
I don't mean to be a dick
I just don't like the changes
I can not help the things I say
You know wouldn't to strangers
But I don't like going away
Cos it puts me in danger
I can tell you now
There ain't a problem can't be solved
With a good old fashioned row
So grit your teeth and stand your ground
And it's not hard to tell
That I learnt my lesson well
But I'm still waiting for
The man to come with all my things
What are you waiting for
Get up off your seat
It's just seven days
Feels like a week
What are you moaning for
You got all that you want
Your life could be worse
You could leave in a hearse
