The spotlight is centered in the stadium tonight
Everyone is locked and loaded for the big fight
He was the challenger and he was quite slim
Yet he went by the name of Big Jim
He was outwardly bold but he wasn't too old
He wanted somethin' more than the championship gold
No he was fighting for the ultimate prize
To see complete defeat in his opponent's eyes
He made his entrance through the juvenile crowd
The air in the building was thunderously loud
He cracked his knuckles, his fist clenched and curled
As he stared into the eyes of the champion of the world
Ding, ding, ding, he heard the bell ring
He cocked back his arm and took the first swing
His fist went flying but it only hit air
He was met with the champion's icy stare
And that was the last thing that he saw
Before his teeth were knocked out of his jaw
He was launched backwards, crashed to the ground
The crowd was dead silent, there wasn't a sound
But just when the crowd thought that he'd been beat
He pulled himself back up onto his feet
The champion paid him with a devilish grin
It was well-known he could get under anyone's skin
Jim wiped off the blood that was smeared on his lip
Threw out his last grip on good sportsmanship
He swung once again but was met with a punch
The whole crowd was able to hear his bones crunch
The champion landed eleven more blows
Until the fettucine spewed out of his nose
He started to sweat them beads of regret
But the battle was young, it wasn't over yet
He went for a jab but was stabbed with surprise
As the champion's glove left a tattoo 'round his eyes
His nerves started boiling, he started to seethe
He just had a second to let himself breathe
His face was kissed by the champion's fist
He tried to give one back but he missed
He scratched and he clawed, fought for his life
Each jab was a stab just as sharp as a knife
The champion's pounding was starting to mount
How long until Jim would be down for the count?
Is he gonna give in or take it on the chin?
Everybody's wondering who's going to win
Suddenly Jim shifted into fourth gear
He pounced at the champ and he bit off his ear
The champion staggered, he let out a howl
His pain turned to rage as he started to growl
He balled up his fist like a boppin' balloon
And slugged Jim and sent him right up to the moon
Or maybe it was so hard that he made it to Mars
Wherever he went, Jim was sure seeing stars
He heard the sweet lullaby of the crowd's roar
As his face hit the cold hard pillow of the floor
And as he laid there halfway knocked out
His head throbbing with shame and doubt
It doesn't matter what's the tale of the tape
There ain't no winning, you can only escape
But then something happened, he felt it inside
Call it strength or resistence or power or pride
Whatever it was, it was electrifying
He was going to do it or he would die trying
He groped for the last of his slow-dying hope
He pulled himself up by the aid of the ropes
He stood there with his brains mashed like spuds
Out of his mouth ran a flood of blood
He willed his last swing from the strength of God
As the champion blocked it and gave him a nod
He gave him a smack, a whack and a crack
Jim fell on his back and he faded to black
The champion stood tall, the crowd did yell
As the man in the stripes rang the bell
When everything settled, he was helped to his feet
Where he was to shake hands and accept defeat
And as Jim stood there with the crowd going mad
He knew he had given it all that he had
And Jim breathed a sigh as he dropped his gloves
For he'd learned that you cannot pick a fight with love
