People's Champ Lyrics - Arkells

You've got no vision for the long run 

You've got no sense of history 

You've got the world at your fingertips 

And now you have it crumblin' 

But if you look back far enough 

And find the place you started 

Before you held a grudge 

Or the highest office 

You do nothing every year 

But you're showin' up on the red carpet...

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

And it ain't you 

I said "Give it to me straight!" 

(Things are crooked) 

I said "Who's sticking around?" 

(For all the heavy lifting?) 

You ain't no robin hood (No) 

Never been in this neighbourhood (No) 

Thought you said this would be easy 

Photos 

But I can smell it on ya 

You're some aristocrat 

I said "It takes a village" 

And you can't handle that 

Well I already know 

How the history books will react 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

And it ain't you 

All my girls say 

O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh 

O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh 

All my dudes go 

O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh 

O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh 

Now here's the official statement: 

We're street fighting on the pavement 

I'm going dancing like I'm raving 

There's no service in the basement 

Now I don't mean to sound impatient 

But I've seen the flag you're waving 

And I can see through all this fake shit 

This highest office's sitting vacant 

But if you look back far enough 

And find the place you started 

I promise you no charlatan 

Has ever died a martyr 

You do nothing every year 

But showing up on the red carpet 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

(O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

(O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

(O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh) 

I'm looking for the people's champ 

(I'm looking for the people's champ) 

(O-o-o-o-o-o-o-oh) 

And it ain't you
