I am ready for my close-up,
I am ready for love,
I am ready for my close-up,
I am ready for love.

You could fly to the moon,
Discover a wonder drug,
You could solve world hunger,
If you want it badly enough.

Find the love of your life,
Grow thicker hair,
Buy total satisfaction,
Or whatever gets you there.

I am ready for my close-up,
I am ready for love,
I am ready for my close-up,
I am ready for love.

. Did you make your bed this morning?
Did you write your thank-yous?
Your mind makes the world around you,
You’re behind the autocue.

All of this will be one day yours,
If you never let yourself stop,
And whatever you set your mind to,
Is the thing you’ve already got,
In here.

I am ready for my close-up,
I am ready for love,
I am ready for my close-up,
I am ready for love.

When they look into your eyes,
Will they see the madness in your heart?
Will they see how far you've travelled,
Just to reach the start.

Better to burn out brightly,
Than to fade and fizzle away,
So turn you heart into a firework,
And in the darkness follow your flame.

I am ready for my close-up,
I am ready for love,
I am ready for my close-up,
I am ready for love.

We'll face them off today, we'll meet them on our turf,
Surrounded by the sound, of those that know our worth,
A tale of two halves, to work and to play,
United we'll win, send them on their way,
It’s all up to us, it’s our choice to make,
To rise up for victory, fight for all our sakes,
When all is said and done, there’s no contest here,
Our shots are on target, they'll bring in a cheer!

Take what’s due, we're looking right at you,
Give it some, there’s nowhere left to run.

We'll take it, we'll take it, we’ll take this victory right from you, yeah,
We'll take it, we'll take it, we’ll take this victory right from you, yeah,
When this day is all but done, we'll raise our fists as champions!

We'll slide through the dirt, and laugh through the rain,
With all of our might, we'll fight through the pain,
When it’s said and done, there’s no contest here,
Our shots are on target, they'll bring in a cheer,
And we'll win, yeah we'll win,
We'll win, yeah we'll win!

Take what’s due, we're looking right at you,
Give it some, there’s nowhere left to run,
Laugh and cry, you know we'll do or die,
Fight to win, don't take it on the chin!

We'll take it, we'll take it, we’ll take this victory right from you, yeah,
We'll take it, we'll take it, we’ll take this victory right from you, yeah,
When this day is all but done, we'll raise our fists as champions!
