In The Story Of Boris Becker

From a wealthy and famous sportsman to one who did fail
Six times Grand Slam tennis winner Boris Becker sentenced to serve time in jail
Sentenced for fraud after declaring bankruptcy a few years ago
From wealth and fame to poverty and disgrace for him happens to be so
Sentencing Judge Deborah Taylor at Southwaark Crown Court said the German sporting great lacked in humility
We dislike in others what we dislike in our selves in her too may be
That it is only a World for winners the truth one must face
Boris Becker one who had many admirers is now in disgrace
Though this is going back many Seasons in time
For a while he was the World's number one tennis player in his physical prime
His friends and fans of the past do not admire him today
That life is for winners only true to say
In the story of Boris Becker a lesson for all
Those who climb the highest have the furthest to fall.
