Losers

A will to win big
 Streaked tears of elation
 Triumph, succeed at all costs
 Because no one loves a loser
 No one loves a loser
 But who shall endure
 The crippling pain of defeat?
 With the über-beings gone
 See the begging bowls of losers
 No one loves a loser
 No one loves a loser
 Urging home the best of the best
 Golden reward a third-world debt
 That's the trouble
 Short-term vision, glitz and pomp
 Achievement? What achievements?
 A finish line where the crippled foot the cost
 No one loves a loser
 Souls discarded to build a dream
 Dust in the lungs of bristling machines
 Jingoistic
 Natural order resumed and on show
 Paymasters demand
 Lavish diversions to sweeten the show
 No one loves a loser
 Souls discarded to build a dream
 Dust in the lungs of bristling machines
 The victory is fleeting, the endurance long - Losers
 If it's not bombs, it's welfare-stripping, spoils of war - Losers
 Souls discarded...
 Souls discarded to build a dream
 A generation pays, in full for what? - Losers
 A re-filling of a pit so bottomless - Losers
 Souls discarded...
 Souls discarded to build a dream
 Losers!
