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 

And we mean to go on and on and on and on 

We are the champions - my friends 
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 

And we mean to go on and on and on and on 

We are the champions - my friends 
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 

We are the champions - my friends 
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
