The End of the Contender Lyrics
[Verse 1]
Call the cops and tell them what I want
My battery's a hundred percent
It all made sense
A bomb for a body, a hammer for a head
My battery's a hundred percent
It all made sense
[Verse 2]
All your stories are about your death
The lemmings on the way to the cliff
The brain-dead boys
Calling you a hooligan, a Border Reiver git
The boxer with a box of old shit
The big white noise
[Pre-Chorus]
It's all about the money now
You put the hard drive in the microwave
You antelope, you are a sack of wine
Huh, huh
[Verse 3]
Call the cops and tell them what I want
My battery's a hundred percent
It all made sense
Just blame it on the empire, blame it on the empire
Blame it on the empire, blame it on the empire
I don't know
[Pre-Chorus]
It's all about the Benjamins
It's all about the wilderness for me
Tomorrow is a wonderful idea
Huh, huh
[Chorus]
It's the end of the contender
The end of the contender
It's the end of the contender
The end of the contender
[Bridge]
Feeding time, animatronic eyes
Are watching with delight (The end of the contender)
A churning mind, oh, give me that rabid smile
Those Creddahornis eyes
[Verse 4]
Call the cops and tell them what I want
My battery's a hundred percent
It all made sense
A bomb for a body, a hammer for a head
My battery's a hundred percent
It all made sense
(It all made sense)
[Chorus]
The end of the contender
The end of the contender
The end of the contender
The end of the contender

Jonathan Higgs:
This is vaguely about Ronnie Pickering [ex-boxer who went viral in 2015 for a road rage incident] and people of his ilk, but it’s also about the creep of capitalism and how it’s seeping into everything. I’ve tried to put a reference to money or electricity on every song, so he talks...
