'' I've Been A Dirty Low Down Cheat ''

Sport is all about taking part,
Forget about the fastest start,
Regardless of how you must depart,
You can take the heat.

Who in God's name says these things?
Do they know the misery losing brings,
When you're last an alarm bell rings,
It makes you feel incomplete.

We aspire to make it our life's mission,
To win the day that's our ambition,
Life is all about competition,
Humans were made to compete.

We are prevalent in every sport,
The dangers we are willing to court,
The truth is something we do distort,
Or punishment they will mete.
  
Problem is we don't like to lose,
It puts us on a right short fuse,
To win there are things we will abuse,
It's our duty to avoid defeat.

That does include a bit of sinning,
I'd do anything to ensure I'm always winning,
At the finish line I'll be grinning,
How it makes me feel upbeat.

To win I'll even bend the rules,
There are some really useful tools
I'll make the others look like fools,
But I've got to be discreet.

Losing is something I've never faced,
So what I take cannot be traced,
If I'm ever caught I'll be disgraced,
But my ego I must entreat.

My success is all down to my dedication,
Not the taking of illegal medication,
Though it's prevalent in every sporting nation,
Oh how victory tastes so sweet.

Through all the years and battles fought,
I'm now the one left feeling fraught,
For in the end I've now been caught,
I am guilty of deceit.

I was addicted to those winning hugs.
But to get them I was taking drugs,
Despite my saying they were for mugs,
I'm no longer one of the elite.

Those former glories have been taken away,
My name no longer holds any sway,
My principles and morals I did betray,
This time they've got me beat.

My fans have all deserted me,
A lying bastard is now what they see,
In hindsight now I must agree,
