Contender

Look what you've done Look what you've done What do you have now? Things that never come Another year in a dead room Is it time to come down? Another crowded scene You saw the boys in white sing "I'm a pretender" But you never were You never were a contender A contender I heard your same old tune Singing city sins like you were the first one Gave up books for film Gave up film for time Now that you've got none At the back of a crowded scene You saw the boys in white sing "I'm a pretender" At the back of a crowded scene You saw the boys in white sing "I'm a pretender" But you never were You never were a contender A contender You never were a contender You never were a contender
