So You Wanna Be a Boxer?

Lyrics

[Verse 1] 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 word Like a hummingbird's wing If you need to? (Ooh, that's fast) Can you bob, can you weave Can you fake, and deceive When you need to? Well, you might as well quit If you haven't got it [Verse 2] So you wanna be a boxer? Can you pass the test I can tell if you've got it in you I've trained the best When you work and you sweat And you bet 'cause you train To a buzz-saw (Zing) Then you near lose your mind When you find that your boy Has a glass jaw So you might as well quit If you haven't got it [Refrain] Put 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 [Verse 3] 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 honor 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 [Refrain] 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 � la carte Let me have a wing, Joe Tearing him apart That chicken will crow Let me have him, Joe
