Boxing Lyrics

Howard,the strangest things have happened lately
When I take a good swing and all my dreams,
They pivot and slip,
I drop my fists and they're back laughing.

Howard,my intentions become not to lose what I've won.
Ambition has given way to desperation
And I have lost the fight from my eyes.

Chorus
Boxing's been good to me,
Howard,now I'm told
You're growing old.
The whole time we knew a couple of years I'd be through.
Has boxing been good to you?

Howard,now I confess
I'm scared and lonely and tired.
Everyone says I'm made of clay,
That I've had my day,
That I'm not cut out for this,
I just know what to say.
And I say...

Chorus

Well,sometimes I punch myself hard as
I can yelling nobody cares,
Hoping someone will tell me how wrong I am,
Howard.

Chorus

Has boxing been good?
Has boxing been good?
Has boxing been good?
