Champion Of The World lyrics

Gi nwa nke chukwu, gini ka ina ekwu1

N'ihi ihe nile2

Nke chukwu mere3

I tried my best to be just like

The other boys in school

I tried my best to get it right

And died at every duel

This mountainside is suicide

This dream will never work

Still the sign upon my headstone, write

"A champion of the world"

Oh oh-oh

Oh oh-oh-oh oh oh

I tried my best to stay alight

Fly like a firework

I tried my best at taking flight

But my rocketship reversed

Oh, referee, don't stop the fight

Everyone can see I'm hurt

But I'll stand before conquistadors

Till I'm champion of the world

(When I sail) And when I sail

I'm sailing west

(Know I might fail) Knowing I might fail

But, still I'm hoping for the best

(In my dreams) And in my dreams

Onto my chest

She'll pin the colours and say

"I wandered the whole wide world but

Baby, you're the best"

Lo lo-lo-lo lo oh

Ee-yo-ee-yo-ee-yo-ee-yeah

Lo lo-lo-lo lo

So I'm flying on my bicycle

Heading upwards from the Earth

I am jumping with no parachute

Out into the universe

I have E.T. on my bicycle

Because giving up won't work

Now I'm riding on my rocketship

And I'm champion of the world
