Heavyweight Champion of the World
Ed Cosens, Jon McClure, Alan Smyth
Now that she's older
As the embers of romance
Fade to mortgages and leccy bills
Been comfortable and that
Nobody told her
That she'd ever reach the stage
Where her husband bored her
Or she lied about her age
He's compromising
At least he's got a job for life
Get born, get schooled, get job, get car
Pay tax and find a wife
And on that note
The end can't come too soon
If you're not living on the edge
You take up too much room
I could've been a contender
I could've been a someone
Caught up in the rat race
And feeling like a no one
Could've been me in the papers
With the money and the girls
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
At school, he used to dream about being Bruce Lee
But the need for chops in the Manor Top
Ain't all that great you see
And so he gave up
On his black belt and first dan
As near as he got to China
Was a week in Camber Sands
I could've been a contender
I could've been a someone
Caught up in the rat race
And feeling like a no one
Could've been me in the papers
Money and the girls
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
I could've been a contender
Could've been a someone
Caught up in the rat race
And feeling like a no one
Could've been me in the papers
Money and the girls
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
It's boring, it's boring
It might put you to sleep
It's the same old routine, repeating week after week
And you work harder, work harder
You're told that you must
And you must earn a living
And you must earn a crust
And be like everybody else
Be like everybody else
Be like everybody else
Just be like everybody else
Be like everybody else
Just be like everybody else
Be like everybody else
Just be like everybody else
Be like everybody else
Just be like everybody else
Be like everybody else
Just be like everybody else
Be like everybody else
Just be like everybody else
Be like everybody else
Just be like everybody else
I could've been a contender
I could've been a someone
Caught up in the rat race
And feeling like a no one
Could've been me in the papers
Money and the girls
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
I could've been a contender
Could've been a someone
Caught up in the rat race
And feeling like a no one
Been me in the papers
Money and the girls
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
Now that she's older
Ora che è più vecchia
As the embers of romance
Come le braci del romanticismo
Fade to mortgages and leccy bills
Svaniscono in mutui e bollette della luce
Been comfortable and that
Essere a proprio agio e quello
Nobody told her
Nessuno le ha detto
That she'd ever reach the stage
Che avrebbe mai raggiunto la fase
Where her husband bored her
Dove suo marito la annoiava
Or she lied about her age
O lei mentiva sulla sua età
He's compromising
Lui sta facendo compromessi
At least he's got a job for life
Almeno ha un lavoro a vita
Get born, get schooled, get job, get car
Nasci, vai a scuola, trova un lavoro, prendi una macchina
Pay tax and find a wife
Paga le tasse e trova una moglie
And on that note
E a proposito
The end can't come too soon
La fine non può arrivare troppo presto
If you're not living on the edge
Se non stai vivendo sul filo del rasoio
You take up too much room
Occupi troppo spazio
I could've been a contender
Avrei potuto essere un contendente
I could've been a someone
Avrei potuto essere qualcuno
Caught up in the rat race
Intrappolato nella corsa al successo
And feeling like a no one
E sentendomi come un nessuno
Could've been me in the papers
Avrei potuto essere io sui giornali
With the money and the girls
Con i soldi e le ragazze
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
Avrei potuto essere il campione del mondo dei pesi massimi
At school, he used to dream about being Bruce Lee
A scuola, sognava di essere Bruce Lee
But the need for chops in the Manor Top
Ma il bisogno di colpi a Manor Top
Ain't all that great you see
Non è così grande, vedi
And so he gave up
E così ha rinunciato
On his black belt and first dan
Alla sua cintura nera e al primo dan
As near as he got to China
Il più vicino che è arrivato alla Cina
Was a week in Camber Sands
È stata una settimana a Camber Sands
I could've been a contender
Avrei potuto essere un contendente
I could've been a someone
Avrei potuto essere qualcuno
Caught up in the rat race
Intrappolato nella corsa al successo
And feeling like a no one
E sentendomi come un nessuno
Could've been me in the papers
Avrei potuto essere io sui giornali
Money and the girls
Con i soldi e le ragazze
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
Avrei potuto essere il campione del mondo dei pesi massimi
I could've been a contender
Avrei potuto essere un contendente
Could've been a someone
Avrei potuto essere qualcuno
Caught up in the rat race
Intrappolato nella corsa al successo
And feeling like a no one
E sentendomi come un nessuno
Could've been me in the papers
Avrei potuto essere io sui giornali
Money and the girls
Con i soldi e le ragazze
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
Avrei potuto essere il campione del mondo dei pesi massimi
It's boring, it's boring
È noioso, è noioso
It might put you to sleep
Potrebbe farti addormentare
It's the same old routine, repeating week after week
È la solita vecchia routine, che si ripete settimana dopo settimana
And you work harder, work harder
E lavori più duramente, lavori più duramente
You're told that you must
Ti viene detto che devi
And you must earn a living
E devi guadagnarti da vivere
And you must earn a crust
E devi guadagnarti il pane
And be like everybody else
E essere come tutti gli altri
Be like everybody else
Essere come tutti gli altri
Be like everybody else
Essere come tutti gli altri
Just be like everybody else
Essere semplicemente come tutti gli altri
Be like everybody else
Essere come tutti gli altri
Just be like everybody else
Essere semplicemente come tutti gli altri
Be like everybody else
Essere come tutti gli altri
Just be like everybody else
Essere semplicemente come tutti gli altri

Intrappolato nella corsa al successo
And feeling like a no one
E sentendomi come un nessuno
Been me in the papers
Sarei potuto essere io sui giornali
Money and the girls
Con i soldi e le ragazze
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
Avrei potuto essere il campione del mondo dei pesi massimi
Now that she's older
Agora que ela está mais velha
As the embers of romance
Como as brasas do romance
Fade to mortgages and leccy bills
Desvanecem para hipotecas e contas de luz
Been comfortable and that
Ficar confortável e isso
Nobody told her
Ninguém lhe disse
That she'd ever reach the stage
Que ela chegaria ao estágio
Where her husband bored her
Onde seu marido a entediava
Or she lied about her age
Ou ela mentia sobre sua idade
He's compromising
Ele está comprometendo
At least he's got a job for life
Pelo menos ele tem um emprego para a vida
Get born, get schooled, get job, get car
Nascer, estudar, conseguir um emprego, comprar um carro
Pay tax and find a wife
Pagar impostos e encontrar uma esposa
And on that note
E nessa nota
The end can't come too soon
O fim não pode chegar muito cedo
If you're not living on the edge
Se você não está vivendo no limite
You take up too much room
Você ocupa muito espaço
I could've been a contender
Eu poderia ter sido um competidor
I could've been a someone
Eu poderia ter sido alguém
Caught up in the rat race
Preso na corrida dos ratos
And feeling like a no one
E me sentindo como um ninguém
Could've been me in the papers
Poderia ter sido eu nos jornais
With the money and the girls
Com o dinheiro e as garotas
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
Eu poderia ter sido o campeão mundial dos pesos pesados
At school, he used to dream about being Bruce Lee
Na escola, ele costumava sonhar em ser Bruce Lee
But the need for chops in the Manor Top
Mas a necessidade de golpes no Manor Top
Ain't all that great you see
Não é tão grande assim, você vê
And so he gave up
E então ele desistiu
On his black belt and first dan
De sua faixa preta e primeiro dan
As near as he got to China
O mais perto que ele chegou da China

É chato, é chato
It might put you to sleep
Pode te fazer dormir
It's the same old routine, repeating week after week
É a mesma rotina antiga, repetindo semana após semana

I could've been a contender
Podría haber sido un contendiente
I could've been a someone
Podría haber sido alguien
Caught up in the rat race
Atrapado en la carrera de ratas

En la escuela, solía soñar con ser Bruce Lee
But the need for chops in the Manor Top
Pero la necesidad de golpes en Manor Top
Ain't all that great you see
No es tan grande, ya ves

On his black belt and first dan
En su cinturón negro y primer dan
As near as he got to China
Lo más cerca que estuvo de China

He's compromising

You take up too much room
Tu prends trop de place
I could've been a contender
J'aurais pu être un prétendant
I could've been a someone
J'aurais pu être quelqu'un
Caught up in the rat race
Pris dans la course des rats
And feeling like a no one

Could've been me in the papers
Ça aurait pu être moi dans les journaux

Avec l'argent et les filles
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
J'aurais pu être le champion du monde des poids lourds
At school, he used to dream about being Bruce Lee
À l'école, il rêvait d'être Bruce Lee
But the need for chops in the Manor Top

Now that she's older
Jetzt, wo sie älter ist
As the embers of romance
Als die Glut der Romantik
Fade to mortgages and leccy bills
Verblasst zu Hypotheken und Stromrechnungen
Been comfortable and that
Bequem geworden und so
Nobody told her
Niemand hat ihr gesagt
That she'd ever reach the stage
Dass sie jemals das Stadium erreichen würde
Where her husband bored her
Wo ihr Ehemann sie langweilt

He's compromising
Er macht Kompromisse
At least he's got a job for life
Immerhin hat er einen Job fürs Leben
Get born, get schooled, get job, get car
Geboren werden, zur Schule gehen, einen Job bekommen, ein Auto kaufen

Steuern zahlen und eine Frau finden
And on that note
Und zu diesem Thema
The end can't come too soon
Das Ende kann nicht zu früh kommen
If you're not living on the edge
Wenn du nicht am Rand lebst
You take up too much room
Nimmst du zu viel Platz ein
I could've been a contender
Ich hätte ein Anwärter sein können
I could've been a someone
Ich hätte jemand sein können

Mit dem Geld und den Mädchen
I could've been the heavyweight champion of the world
Ich hätte der Schwergewichts-Weltmeister sein können
At school, he used to dream about being Bruce Lee
In der Schule träumte er davon, Bruce Lee zu sein
But the need for chops in the Manor Top
Aber der Bedarf an Koteletten in der Manor Top
Ain't all that great you see
Ist nicht so groß, sehen Sie
And so he gave up
Und so gab er auf
On his black belt and first dan
Mit seinem schwarzen Gürtel und dem ersten Dan
As near as he got to China
So nah wie er China kam

Es könnte dich zum Schlafen bringen
It's the same old routine, repeating week after week
Es ist die gleiche alte Routine, Woche für Woche wiederholend
And you work harder, work harder
Und du arbeitest härter, arbeitest härter
You're told that you must
Man sagt dir, dass du musst

Now that she's older
Sekarang dia sudah lebih tua
As the embers of romance
Saat bara asmara
Fade to mortgages and leccy bills
Memudar menjadi hipotek dan tagihan listrik
Been comfortable and that
Merasa nyaman dan itu saja
Nobody told her
Tak ada yang memberitahunya
That she'd ever reach the stage
Bahwa dia akan mencapai tahap ini
Where her husband bored her
Dimana suaminya membuatnya bosan
Or she lied about her age
Atau dia berbohong tentang umurnya
He's compromising
Dia berkompromi
At least he's got a job for life
Setidaknya dia punya pekerjaan seumur hidup
Get born, get schooled, get job, get car
Lahir, sekolah, kerja, beli mobil
Pay tax and find a wife
Bayar pajak dan cari istri
And on that note
Dan dengan catatan itu
The end can't come too soon
Akhir tidak bisa datang terlalu cepat
If you're not living on the edge
Jika kamu tidak hidup di tepi
You take up too much room
Kamu mengambil terlalu banyak ruang
I could've been a contender
Aku bisa jadi pesaing
