"We are the Champions" is a power ballad written by Freddie Mercury and recorded and performed by British rock band Queen for their 1977 album, News of the World. One of their most famous and popular songs, it remains among rock's most recognizable anthems.

The song was a worldwide success, reaching number two in the UK Singles Chart, and number four on the Billboard Hot 100 in the United States. In 2009, "We are the Champions" was inducted into the Grammy Hall of Fame, and was voted the world's favorite song in a 2005 Sony Ericsson world music poll. In 2011, a team of scientific researchers concluded that the song was the catchiest in the history of popular music.

"We are the Champions" has become an anthem for victories at sporting events, including as the official theme song for the 1994 FIFA World Cup, and has been often used or referenced in popular culture. The song has also been covered by many artists.

This song was heard in The Mighty Ducks, D2: The Mighty Ducks, Chicken Little, and High Fidelity.

Lyrics[]

I've paid my dues
Time after time
I've done my sentence
But committed no crime
And bad mistakes
I've made a few
I've had my share of sand kicked in my face
But I've come through

(And I need just go on and on, and on, and on)

We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting 'til the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the world

I've taken my bows
And my curtain calls
You brought me fame and fortune and everything that goes with it
I thank you all

But it's been no bed of roses
No pleasure cruise
I consider it a challenge before the whole human race
And I ain't gonna lose

(And I need just go on and on, and on, and on)

We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting 'til the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions of the world

We are the champions, my friends
And we'll keep on fighting 'til the end
We are the champions
We are the champions
No time for losers
'Cause we are the champions

I am the champion, my friend
And I'll keep on fighting 'til the end
I am the champion
I am the champion
But gone is the loser
'Cause I am the champion of the world
