Fat and weak, what a disgrace Risin' up, back on the street Guess the champ got too lazy Did my time, took my chances Ain't gonna fly now, he's just takin' up space Went the distance, now I'm back on my feet Sold his gloves, threw his eggs down the drain Just a man and his will to survive But he's no bum, he works down the street So many times, it happens too fast He bought the neighborhood deli You change your passion for glory Back on his feet, now he's choppin' up meat Don't lose your grip on the dreams of the past Come inside, maybe you'll hear him say You must fight just to keep them alive Try the rye or the kaiser It's the eye of the tiger They're on special tonight It's the cream of the fight If you want, you can have an appetizer Risin' up to the challenge of our rival You might like our salami, and the liver's all right And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night And they'd really go well with the rye And he's watchin' us all in the eye Or the kaiser Of the tiger Never eats while on the job Face to face, out in the heat He heard it's good to stay hungry Hangin' tough, stayin' hungry But he makes a pretty mean shish kabob They stack the odds 'til we take to the street Have a taste, they were made fresh today For we kill with the skill to survive Try the rye or the kaiser It's the eye of the tiger Or the wheat or the white It's the cream of the fight Maybe I can suggest an appetizer Risin' up to the challenge of our rival Stay away from the tuna, it smells funny tonight And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night But you just can't go wrong with the rye And he's watchin' us all in the eye Or the kaiser Of the tiger So today, his deli comes first Risin' up, straight to the top Still he dreams of his past days of glory Have the guts, got the glory Goes in the back and beats up on the liverwurst Went the distance, now I'm not gonna stop All the while you can still hear him say Just a man and his will to survive It's the rye or the kaiser It's the eye of the tiger It's the thrill of one bite It's the cream of the fight Let me please be your catering advisor Risin' up to the challenge of our rival If you want substitutions, I won't put up a fight And the last known survivor stalks his prey in the night You can have your roast beef on the rye And he's watchin' us all in the eye Or the kaiser Of the tiger The rye or the kaiser The eye of the tiger The rye or the kaiser The eye of the tiger The rye or the kaiser The eye of the tiger Sent By Dofablin
