(Music begins with the iconic, driving guitar riff) (Intro - instrumental) --- (Verse 1 - rhythmic, punchy) From the Hart Dungeon floor... where the canvas used to sing Came a kid with sharpened boots... with a heart for everything Not the flashiest performer... not a giant in the ring But the science was a story... and he meant everything (Pre-Chorus 1 - building intensity, drums kick in harder) And when he stepped between the ropes... you felt the tension rise You knew you'd see a masterpiece... before your very eyes! The pink and black attack... yeah, it's time to face the fact! (Chorus 1 - melodic, opens up wide) He's the best there is... the best there was... And the best there ever will be... just because! With a sharpshooter hold... he'll make you feel the sting Bret "The Hitman" Hart... is the undisputed king! --- (Verse 2 - rhythmic, building) He put you in a headlock... and you'd feel your hopes deflate Hit a Russian Legsweep... then he'd make you feel your fate And when you saw the glasses... and the jacket came in view You knew the Excellence of Execution... was coming for you! (Pre-Chorus 2 - intensity builds higher) The mat was his canvas... and he painted with such grace A wrestling genius... taking his rightful place! The best to ever do it... yeah, you know it's true! (Chorus 2 - full power) He's the best there is... the best there was... And the best there ever will be... just because! He could wrestle a broom... he could wrestle a bear He'd make you tap out anywhere! With a sharpshooter hold... he'll make you feel the sting Bret "The Hitman" Hart... is the undisputed king! --- (Bridge - music shifts, building anticipation) (Hart Foundation Breakdown - rhythmic, spoken/sung, punchy) But he didn't stand alone... in the early days, you see He had the Foundation... running strong and free! The Anvil... Neidhart... with power and with roar Brother Bruce at ringside... an unsung genius for sure! And later came the Bulldog... with the power slam so grand And the Rocket... Owen Hart... the best in the land! Brother after brother... Keith, and Dean The Hart Family legacy... the greatest ever seen! (Music builds to a crescendo, then drops into the "Hart Attack" refrain) (Hart Attack Refrain - big, chant-like, layered vocals) HART ATTACK! (HART ATTACK!) HART ATTACK! (HART ATTACK!) HART ATTACK! (HART ATTACK!) HART ATTACK! (HART ATTACK!) (Music swells, drums pounding, building to final chorus) (Pre-Chorus 3 - maximum intensity, riding the energy) Through screwjobs and through struggle... through the glory and the pain He carried the flag of honor... through the sun and through the rain! A ring general, a champion... forever he'll remain! --- (Final Chorus - huge, anthemic, triumphant) He's the best there is... the best there was... And the best there ever will be... just because! From Calgary to Wembley... in the sun or in the rain He carried the flag... through the joy and the pain! With a sharpshooter hold... he'll make your memory cling Bret "The Hitman" Hart... is the undisputed king! --- (Outro - guitar riff fades, crowd chanting underneath) The best there is... The best there was... The best there ever will be... Thank you, Bret. (Final "Hart Attack" chant fades out) HART ATTACK... HART ATTACK... HART ATTACK...
