You coulda been a contender I never said that before You were a bit of a cunt But boy did you have some front And there was something about you for sure You thought the world revolved around you You got too big for your boots Self-belief is ok But ego came out to play And you starting forgetting your roots Your bitterness is on show for all to see You can take my name in vain cuz it doesn't bother me What have you got? Is that your best shot? You think that you're a man but you're a tart I think we both know you're a no-show Cuz you haven't got the bottle or a heart You're still flogging your story To anyone who'll pay How can you be Seen with me Wouldn't suit you anyway Your new crowd is turning against you It was bound to happen in the end Then you chased the wealth You just can't help yourself And you've lost yourself another friend Your bitterness is on show for all to see You can take my name in vain cuz it doesn't bother me What have you got? Is that your best shot? You think that you're a man but you're a tart I think we both know that you're a no-show Did you ever got the bottle or a heart How's that chip on your shoulder Are you still hanging round in dives? Talking shit, but it don't matter a bit Cuz we're having the time of our lives What have you got? Is that your best shot? You think that you're a man but you're a tart I think we both know that you're a no-show Cuz you haven't got the bottle or a heart What have you got? Is that your best shot? You think that you're a man but you're a tart I think we both know that you're a no-show Cuz you haven't got the bottle or a heart You could've been (you could've been) You could've been a contender You could've been (you could've been) You could've been a contender You could've been (you could've been) You could've been a contender You could've been (you could've been) You could've been a contender
