Lyrics
The Contender
Words & music by Blake Christiana & Shane Spaulding
Why you gotta push the good people down
Why do you got to mess around
Why you gotta act so dumb and loud
Why you gotta go and do that now
Were all in a hole
So jump in the ring
You?re a contender now
We gotta pray for all those who?ve died
And we gotta pray for those still alive
Why you gotta act so dumb and loud
Why you gotta go and do that now
Were all in a hole
So jump in the ring
You?re a contender now
We got human bombs building gravesites
We got smart bombs building more
We got bio-terror safety kits
Being sold in convenience stores
We got all the guns and ammo
Look at all the people dead
So pick up your signs and speak your minds
Cause something needs to be said
Why you gotta push the good people down
Why do you got to mess around
Why you gotta act so dumb and loud
Why you gotta go and do that now
Were all in a hole
So jump in the ring
You?re a contender now
Were all in a hole
So jump in the ring
You?re a contender now
