The Boxer

(альбом: The Orwells - 2019)

Lately I can't explain
Been shadow boxing a fogged up mirror
In the morning with the heavy bags
Under the eyes of a half assed leer

I'm made into a villain
Bank in the pocket
Love at the table by my side
Take all my winnings
Buy out the building
I'm not the man to take a dive

Forgo companionship
Forgot my name when my brain got sick
Turned in my concrete mitts
For a half wit kid and a grocery list
I get handsy force of habit
Former champ drives a station wagon
Name lit up at the dealership
I ain't half the man that his grandpa is

I'm made into a villain
Bank in the pocket
Love at the table by my side
Take all my winnings
Buy out the building
I'm not the man to take a dive
Pacing the lobby Ma couldn't find me
Iron my shirt and call my ride
Hands on the table checks in the mail
I got a fight quarter past five

I'm made into a villain
Bank in the pocket
Love at the table by my side
Take all my winnings
Buy out the building
I'm not the man to take a dive
Pacing the lobby Ma couldn't find me
Iron my shirt and call my ride
Hands on the table checks in the mail
I got a fight quarter past five
