Take a look to the songs of the olympics an judge for yourself how weird are the lyrics and the names...
The London Olympics won't get underway until this weekend, but numerous songs from these pop-heavy games have already been released. As part of its "Rock the Games" music program, the London Organising Committee of the Olympic and Paralympic Games commissioned five songs.
The first to appear was Muse's "Survival," and the last will be Dizzee Rascal's "Scream," which will be released midway through the games on Aug. 6.
Race, life is race
And I am gonna win
Yes, I am gonna win
I’ll light the fuse
And I’ll never lose
And I choose to survive
Whatever it takes
You won’t pull ahead
I’ll keep up the pace
And I will reveal my strength to the whole human race
Yes, I am prepared to stay alive
I won’t forgive
Vengeance is mine,
And I wont give in because I choose to thrive
And I am going to win
Race, it’s a race
And I’m gonna win, Yes I am gonna win
And I will light the fuse
And I’ll never lose
And I choose to survive
Whatever it takes
You won’t pull ahead
Because I’ll keep up the pace
And I will reveal my strength to the whole human race
Yes I am going to win.
Fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!
Win! Win! Win! Win!
YES I’M GOING TO WIN.
