Prize Fighter Lyrics - Battle Born - The Killers

She's a pillar by the day, a fire by the night 

She's a famous architect like Frank Lloyd Wright 

When it comes to tightrope walking 

She's world renowned 

Her elegance and charm are worthy of praise 

And I heard she used to throw for the Oakland A's 

She works 268 hours a week 

I've yet to meet her match 

A marvel of modern science 

She's a natural born pioneer 

I can't make up my mind 

Should I put her on display or hide her? 

I'm gonna be her prize fighter 

I know that she's out of my league 

I'm gonna be her prize fighter 

My uniform has been decreed

She's a daughter of the gods, got a lot of clout 

If she's ever in a bind, I'll get her out 

And sometimes I have these nightmares in the middle of the day 

Where a hay-making gypsy steals her away 

There ain't no doubt about it 

I'm a slave to her shade of love 

One day her majesty the Queen 

Unprovoked and unforeseen 

Is gonna fly her over to England 

Put that sword on her shoulder and knight her 

I'm gonna be her prize fighter 

No label's gonna change where she's from 

I'm gonna be her prize fighter 

And I'm dancing to the beat of her drum 

She's always on my side, rich or poor 

And she's with me all the way to the golden door 

My lioness, my pièce de résistance 

My only way 

Photos 

I'm gonna drive me an El Dorado 

The color of her marbly eyes 

With twin bullet tail lights 

And plates that we desire 

I'm gonna be her prize fighter 

Though the weather may be foul 

I'm gonna be her prize fighter 

Though the wind and the wolves may howl 

(Prize fighter) 

Through the sunshine, through the rain 

I'm gonna be her prize fighter 

Over and over again
