Contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You forgot to hit the bag
I guess I got in your way
You must be
Just having a hard day
Tastes like pennies on my tongue
You say that I'm bad news
The thoughts you have
Are your truth
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
I never fell so hard and deep
I never forgot how to sleep
It felt like death walking on my own two feet
A smile from a friend was a defeat
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
Shake me like the sugar
Doesn't make this sweeter
Hit me like a winner
Makes the best theatre
Shake me like the sugar
Doesn't make this sweeter
Hit me like a winner
Makes the best theatre
I'm sorry for what I didn't say
and I'm sorry if I got in your way
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You coulda
You coulda
Oh I should've known better
That you're a pretender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You forgot to hit the bag
I guess I got in your way
You must be
Just having a hard day
Tastes like pennies on my tongue
You say that I'm bad news
The thoughts you have
Are your truth
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
I never fell so hard and deep
I never forgot how to sleep
It felt like death walking on my own two feet
A smile from a friend was a defeat
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
Shake me like the sugar
Doesn't make this sweeter
Hit me like a winner
Makes the best theatre
Shake me like the sugar
Doesn't make this sweeter
Hit me like a winner
Makes the best theatre
I'm sorry for what I didn't say
and I'm sorry if I got in your way
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You coulda
You coulda
Oh I should've known better
That you're a pretender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
You could have been a contender
