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 whirl like a humming bird's wing   If you need to (ooh thats 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      So you wanna be a boxer   Can you pass the test?    I can tell you've got it in you   I've trained the best      When you work and you sweat   And you bet that 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.       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       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 honour 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      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 a la carte   Let me have a wing, Joe   Tearing him apart   That chicken will crow      oh let me have him Joe
