The Ecstasy of Free Thought
The days of a champio
are numbered it seem
The days of a champio
now the cameras burn ho
The days of a champio
they'd even duel to get the sho
The days of a champio
they'll search for hi
but he's a burnt out sta
(chorus
He'll be out of the pictur
but stuck in the fram
no more prizes, no more accolade
and no more famous nam
no more famous nam
The days of a champio
they will dissect his whole caree
The days of a champio
and watch him disappea
The days of a champio
unrecognised he'll walk the busy street
The days of a champio
he will be private agai
(chorus
The days of a champio
he'll watch the young man rise to fam
The days of a champio
knowing their ends must be the sam
The days of a champio
friends acquired on golden days are gon
The days of a champio
he'll search for them - in vain
