I've paid my dues
Time after time
I've done my sentence [bad word] no crime
And bad mistakes
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face
But [bad word] through

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 fortuen and everything that goes with it
- and some [bad word] great cheers
I thank you all -
But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure [bad word] I consider it a challenge before the whole human race
And I ain't gonna lose

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
