Culmination Song 2 - "We Are The Champions" by Queen

Hi fifth graders. Although it will be a couple of weeks before we get to the rest of our musical program, I thought it would be useful to put all the music now so you can give it a listen. Most of you probably know the chorus here, but check out the lyrics for the verses.

We Are the Champions
By Freddie Mercury

I’ve paid my dues,
Time after time.
I’ve done my sentence
But committed no crime.
And bad mistakes,
I’ve made a few.
I’ve had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I’ve come through.

And I need to go on, and on, and on, and on.

We are the champions, my friend.
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 fortune
and ev’rything that goes with it,
I thank you all.

But it’s been no bed of roses.
No pleasure cruise.
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race
And I ain’t gonna lose.

And I need to go on, and on, and on, and on.

We are the champions, my friend.
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 friend.
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.
