At the Impossible by Peter MackayAdded:
We've been at the impossible again.
Levitating, hanging in the air 1 2 seconds an age. Longer and higher than should be possible.
The t-shirts were printed before we'd hit the ground.
We've come through the worst of times, walked all those long miles, 500 5,000 to rest and ligament back to full fitness.
Just to be able to tip the whole world over the bar with our last skelf of skin.
And oh yes, we've held our breath in our millions in frantic unison as we watch a ball tumble in its humdrum everyday perfect parabola and fall plump as a rainbow to the ground.
We've been at the impossible.
And now in Boston, Miami, anywhere, anyhow, we have to do it all over again.
And then, yes sir, we will boogie, absolutely to whatever song we choose.
